Consumer Description

TWICE NOW CAR HAS JUST STALLED/SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. ENGINE LIGHT AT THAT TIME SUDDENLY SHOWS "LOW ENGINE OIL PRESSURE". TAKEN TO DEALER TWICE AND OIL LEVEL LOW-->OIL CHANGE DONE AND PROBLEM RESOLVED FOR ~ 3K MILES. FIRST TIME HAPPENED AROUND 4-5K MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE, 2ND TIME HAPPENED AROUND 4K AFTER OIL CHANGE. OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AT 1K AFTER LAST OIL CHANGE SHOWS ENGINE IS BURNING AT LEAST 1/2 QUART OF OIL. DEALERSHIP STATES JEEP IS STATING THIS IS WITHIN NORMAL AND THAT I SHOULD GET OIL CHANGED/TOPPED OFF EVERY 3K MILES. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND UNACCEPTABLE THAT OIL CONSUMPTION IS SO HIGH THAT MY ENGINE RANDOMLY STALLS BECAUSE OF LOW ENGINE OIL.
