Consumer Description
MY ENGINE CONSUMES OIL. I CANNOT EVEN REACH 2000 MILES BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. MY CAR WILL JUST CUT OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING (AT ANY SPEED INCLUDING HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND TURNS). WHEN THIS FIRST HAPPENED I CHECKED THE OIL AND THE ENGINE WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY OF OIL. IT DIDNT EVEN REGISTER ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE HAD OVER 6 OIL CHANGES SINCE I BOUGHT MY CAR IN 01/2019 (LESS THAN A YEAR). I HAVE HAD OIL CONSUMPTION TESTING COMPLETED AND EVERYTHING "COMES BACK IN RANGE". THE ENGINE HAS BEEN INSPECTED AND NOTHING IS LEAKING OR FAULTY. MY CAR TAKES FULL SYNTHETIC OIL WHICH SHOULD LAST WAY LONGER THAN THAT. I AM AWARE THIS IS AN OVERALL ISSUE WITH 2017 JEEPS OF ALL MODELS. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP DIDNT SEEM LIKE HE KNOW MUCH OF ANYTHING AND TRIED TO TELL ME THAT THIS WAS NORMAL. I HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT COMPLETELY DEPLETES ITS OIL SUPPLY WITHIN 2000 MILES. HE THEN REFERRED ME TO MOPARS CORPORATE LINE WHO THEN REFERRED ME TO NHTSA TO FILE A REPORT.
