Consumer Description
AT AROUND 5000 MILES THE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF WHEN MAKING TURNS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LEASED IT FROM AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A "KNOWN" ISSUE AND TO COMPLAIN TO CHRYSLER. THEY CHECKED MY OIL AND IT WAS NEARLY 3 QUARTS LOW. THEY THEN GAVE ME THE OPTION TO JUST ADD OIL OR SINCE I WAS CLOSE TO NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE JUST TO HAVE THEM DO THAT. BOTH WOULD BE AT MY EXPENSE. THEY ALSO RECOMMENDED THAT I COME BACK ONCE A MONTH AND HAVE OIL ADDED, ALSO AT MY EXPENSE. I HAD THEM DO THE OIL CHANGE BUT LATER IN THE DAY IT WASN'T SITTING RIGHT WITH ME. THIS IS A BRAND NEW VEHICLE AND ALSO A LEASE, THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE FIXED AND IF IT CAN'T THEN IT SURE AS HECK SHOULDN'T BE MY PROBLEM. I AM NOW AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AS I WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD STALL AT ANY GIVEN TIME AND THAT I COULD BLOW MY ENGINE IF I DON'T PAY ATTENTION. I AM GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SPEAK WITH A MANAGER BUT I JUST WANTED OTHERS TO BE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE.
