Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE AND A WARNING READING "DRIVETRAIN MALFUNCTION. DRIVE MODERATELY" CAME ON. POWER WAS LOW (COULDN'T GET THE CAR OVER ABOUT 60 MPH, NOT SAFE ON AN INTERSTATE WITH STEADY TRAFFIC) AND CAR WAS SOMEWHAT CHUGGY. THIS CAR HAS THREE TIMES IN UNDER 8000 MILES TOLD ME THE OIL WAS LOW AND IT WAS CRITICALLY NECESSARY FOR ME TO ADD A QUART, WHICH SEEMS RELATED. AFTER STOPPING AND CALLING MINI (WHO TOLD ME THEY WOULD SEND A TOW TRUCK IF THE LIGHT HAD BEEN RED, RATHER THAN YELLOW) AND STARTING THE CAR BACK UP SOME 20ISH MINUTES LATER, NO WARNING. UNSURE WHEN THE NEXT WARNING IN THIS NEW CAR WILL COME UP, BUT MINI SAYS THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH OIL FILTER HOUSINGS.
