Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR, WITHOUT WARNING THIS JEEP STALLS, PUTTING MY WIFE IN A POTENTIALLY FATAL OR INJURIOUS ACCIDENT SITUATION. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY KNOW AND ACCEPT AS NORMAL THIS BRAND NEW CAR BURNING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 2000 MILES AND THAT IF THE CAR GETS LOW ON OIL IT WILL QUIT RUNNING, BUT THEY NEVER TELL THE OWNER OF THE CAR, THEY ONLY SAY COME BACK IN 5000 MILES FOR NEXT OIL CHANGE, MEANWHILE THE CAR STARTS STALLING AT 3-4000 MILES
