NHTSA Complaint #10960174 — 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE

MY JEEP STALLS WITHOUT WARNING WHILE IN MOTION. CHRYSLER WAS NOTIFIED AS WELL AS MY DEALER. THEY BOTH INDICATE THAT I NEED TO ADD OIL BETWEEN 750 TO 2000 MILES TO PREVENT A STALL. THE STALL IS A "SAFETY" FEATURE THAT PREVENTS THE MOTOR FROM SEIZING ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER. OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS WERE COMPLETED AT 500 MILES WITH NO NEGATIVE DATA. THERE IS NO WARNING WHEN THE VEHICLE STALLS TO INCLUDE AN OIL PRESSURE WARNING. EVERY 750 MILES SEEMS EXCESSIVE AND I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT IF THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING AT LOW OIL PRESSURE, THAT A WARNING LIGHT WOULD INDICATE THAT YOU ARE ABOUT TO STALL. CHRYSLER HAS CLOSED MY COMPLAINT WITH NO FURTHER ACTION AND INDICATED IT WAS THE OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY TO MONITOR EVERY 750 MILES. EACH STALL WAS WHILE IN MOTION AND ON A BUSY ROAD. THE DATE PROVIDED IS APPROXIMATE. STALLS HAVE HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND WE REPLENISH SYNTHETIC OIL WITH SIGNIFICANT REGULARITY.
