Consumer Description
WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 65 MILES AN HOUR CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED. MESSAGE POPPED UP ON DASH STATED TO SHIFT CAR IN TO PARK AND RESTART. I WENT FROM 65 MILES AN HOUR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN THE MATTER OF SECONDS A SEMI ALMOST CRASHING INTO ME. PULLED OVER RESTARTED THE CAR, STARTED DRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN IT HAPPENED TO ME AGAIN ON THE WAY. LEFT CAR AT DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD THE NEXT DAY I NEEDED TO PURCHASE AN OIL CHANGE. DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK AND NO OTHER PROBLEMS WERE FOUND. I AM 1000 MILES AWAY FROM AN OIL CHANGE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THESE CARS CONSUME OIL EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS THAT MEANS 5 QUARTS OF OIL HAS BEEN CONSUMED IN BETWEEN MY OIL CHANGES. I DO NOT TRUST DRIVING THIS CAR MYSELF OR WITH MY FAMILY. I HAD NO INDICATION OR WARNING THAT OIL LEVELS WERE EVEN LOW. WANT ME TO GET AN OIL CHANGE AND DO A 500 MILE CHECK FOR 3000 MILES I DO NOT TRUST DRIVING THIS CAR FOR EVEN 5 MILES. JEEP NOR DEALERSHIP WILL NOT DO ANYTHING ELSE UNTIL HE CONSUMPTION TEST IS COMPLETE. I HAVE ALSO READ OTHER COMPLAINTS STATING THEY ARE GETTING REPLACEMENT ENGINES PUT IN AND THEY ARE THE SAME ENGINES WITH NO PROBLEMS FIXED.
