2018 JEEP CHEROKEE Engine Problems

Engine stall, shuts down while driving

Coming to a stop at a stop sign and the dash made a ding followed by the engine light coming on, the shifter went into park on its own, the display stated “Shift to park and then select desired gear”, lights flashed on the shifter console. Unable to drive I had to restart more than once. Car barely restarted before I was able to shift again and continue home.

In two instances, I have been driving my car and the car dies. Both times there was no oil. I take my car for regular servicing and oil changes and have also taken it to the dealership as I felt it was burning oil too rapidly. They determined there was no issue but I am having to put 3+ quarts every 3000-5000 miles even with oil changes. But when the oil is low there is no indication and the car will die WHILE DRIVING.

When driving, car completely turns off with no warning. No icons are lit to possibly tell of issue. Car has done this numerous times

When turning and/or accelerating from a stop engine stalling and won’t turn on until after a few tries. Also, oil light for a split second and battery light once stalled. Have had numerous fresh oil changes and once about 50% life on oil give or take the car starts to have these problems.

Had a recall fixed recently. Now showing three Errors. P2122, P0123, P0222

Made a right turn onto a street and heard a single ding(the same ding it makes if seatbelt is off) then the car turned off, the red battery light briefly came on and then turned off. I rolled out of traffics way onto the shoulder and placed my car in park and tried to restart it. Car would not restart initially. After 3 tries the vehicle restarted and I was able to make it back onto the road. - the engine shut off and the power steering went out. these are available for inspection upon request. -The vehicle stalled in the middle of traffic so not only my safety but the safety of other drivers was at risk as my vehicle was turning a corner and not able to accelerate as other drivers came up behind me causing them to swerve. -the problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by...

Car turn off on its own error code P2172 U1428 maybe throttle body. Other Jeep have a recall on this but my vin isn’t included.

Car stalled entering onto highway. Alternator went out.

AT RANDOM TIMES THE MESSAGE "SERVICE SHIFTER" APPEARS, AND ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER TURN RED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT A DOZEN TIME AND HAS HAPPENED WHEN IN DRIVE(ON HIGHWAY AND STREETS) AND WHEN IN PARK. IF I TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON THE MESSAGE DISAPPEARS. FROM ALL THE RESEARCH I'VE DONE IT APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING TO A LOT OF JEEP (2014-2019) OWNERS. SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS!!!

VEHICLE IS STALLING DUE TO EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION.....NO OIL INDICATOR LIGHT COMES ON. BUT VEHICLE EVEN WHEN OIL INDICATOR GAGE SAYS THERE IS OIL....THE OIL IS LOW AND CAUSES STALLING. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. STALLS WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY IN TRAFFIC. BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS NORMAL AND TO CHANGE OIL EVERY 3000. THUIS DOES NOT FIX THE UNDERLYING ISSUE. READING ONLINE THERE SEEMS TO BE A CLASS ACTION SUIT AND DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT HELPFUL WITH THIS ISSUE. NERVOUS TO DRIVE LONG DISTANCE ESPECIALLY WHEN NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATE TO LET YOU KNOW YOU ARE LOW ON OIL.

OIL CONSUMPTION ON VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 50K MILES. 3 TO 4 QUARTS LOW AT EVERY 5000 MILE OIL CHANGE. CAUSING VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREET. NO WARNING LIGHT TO INFORM YOU OF LOW OIL.

ON MARCH 14TH WHILE SLOWING AND TURNING RIGHT ON A STATE MAINTAINED COUNTRY ROAD, THE VEHICLE ENGINE STALLED AND POWER STEERING WAS OUT WITH THE BATTERY LIGHT ON.. VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AFTER TWO ATTEMPTS AFTER PUTTING IT BACK INTO PARK. ON MARCH 16TH WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THE VEHICLE STALLED AT A STOP LIGHT IN THE SAME MANNER DESCRIBED ABOVE ON US HWY 421. IT TOOK 4 ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. CURRENTLY THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT RECREATE THE STALL AND WILL BE SENDING US ON OUR WAY WITH THIS VEHICLE UNREPAIRED. MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FOUND IN A SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION AND WILL POSSIBLE CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS.

I HAVE OIL LEAKING FROM BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND CYLINDER HEAD WHICH HAS LEAKED ENOUGH TO COAT THE ENGINE BLOCK AND IS ALSO LOSING COOLANT. DEALER DIAGNOSED AS A SEEPAGE SAYS IS NORMAL AND SAYS CHRYSLER WON'T FIX IT. SO ACCORDING TO CHRYSLER YOUR 2.4 ENGINE IS SUPPOSED TO LEAK AND BURN OIL. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD.

CAR TURNS OFF WHILE DRIVING. NO MAINTENANCE INDICATION ON DASH. I CHECK THE OIL AND THERE IS NO OIL EVEN AFTER A RECENT OIL CHANGE. ALL MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN WITH THE SAME DEALERSHIP CAR SERVICE. THIS HAS OCURRED 5 TIMES SINCE PURCHASE. CAR SERVICE TEAM HAS CHANGED MAINTENANCE FREQUENCY TO EVERY 1300 MILES TO MONITOR OIL CONSUMPTION BUT HAVE NOT DETERMINED ROOT CAUSE. AGAIN, THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING (ALL 5 TIMES) ON CITY STREETS.

MY SENSORS ONLY WORK SOMETIMES, MY KEY FOB ONLY WORKS WHEN IT WANTS. IT'S STARTING TO HAVE ISSUES. MY JEEP STOPPED WORKING ON THE HIGHWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN

SINCE WE BOUGHT IT NEW, IT HAS STALLED WHEN TURNING (USUALLY LEFT) WHEN THE OIL LEVEL GETS LOW. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PUT OIL IN IT FREQUENTLY AND THAT THE ENGINE SHUTTING OFF IS A SAFETY MECHANISM. THE PROBLEM IS, THERE IS NO INDICATION THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS LOW. SO UNLESS I KEEP TRACK OF HOW MANY MILES I HAVE DRIVEN, THE JEEP WILL JUST QUIT ON ME. I HAVE DEALT WITH THE ISSUE UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN I CAME WITHIN INCHES OF GETTING SLAMMED ON MY PASSENGER DOOR BECAUSE I STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IF A LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON, I WOULD OBVIOUSLY HAVE MORE OIL PUT IN, BUT I GET NO WARNING AT ALL. IT JUST QUITS. USUALLY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE ENCLOSED PICTURES ARE OF WHEN...

ON 12/15/20 I DROVE LESS THAN 1 MI. DOWNHILL, STOPPED AT THE STOP SIGN & THE ENGINE QUIT & BATTERY LIGHT CAME ON. ENGINE RESTARTED ABOUT 5 MIN. I WAS LOW ON GAS, SO GAS WAS ADDED & I FILLED TANK. THE ENGINE QUIT THE NEXT DAY AT THE SAME SPOT. IT RESTARTED AFTER A FEW TRIES. THE BATTERY INDICATOR SHOWED IT HAD A CHARGE & OIL WAS GOOD. REPEAT STALLING AT SAME SPOT ON 12/24/20 AND ON 1/2/2021. VERY CONCERNING AS I WAS STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET AND COULD EASILY BE HIT. I HAD 27,000 & CURRENTLY HAVE 35693 MILES. THIS VEHICLE WAS SERVICED BEFORE I GOT IT AND IS TOO NEW TO BE HAVING PROBLEMS.

AFTER OWNING MY BRAND NEW 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE FOR A FEW MONTHS, I TURNED ON MY VEHICLE AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER WARNING CAME ON IN MY DASH AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON MY SHIFTER LIT UP. I CALL THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN, SO I TOOK IT AND WHEN I TURNED THE CAR OFF, THE MESSAGE NO LONGER APPEARED. THE DEALERSHIP TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND IT SAID IT CAME BACK FINE. UPON GETTING MY CAR BACK, IT WAS RANDOMLY SHOWING THE SERVICE SHIFTER MESSAGE AGAIN SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TWO MORE TIMES FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY STATED THAT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND SO NOTHING WAS FIXED. I HAVE NOW OWNED THE VEHICLE FOR 3 YEARS AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX THE STILL APPEARING ISSUE. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARS BUT I FEAR THAT WHATEVER...

ALL THE ENGINE OIL LEAKED OUT OF THE CAR AND STARTED TO SMOKE WHILE I WAS IN MOTION AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON BUT WAS PERFECTLY FINE AT FIRST. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT HAD HAPPENED BUT MY ENGINE IS NOW MESSING UP AND I ALMOST GOT IN A CAR ACCIDENT.

WE WERE TRAVELING IN OUR 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE AND AT A RED LIGHT, THE CAR JUST TURNED OFF. WE HAD TO SIT FOR AWHILE AND THEN RESTART IT BY PUTTING ON THE BRAKE AND SOME OTHER THING. WE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND IT RAN FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES. THEN, IT STOPPED WHILE WE WERE AT A RED LIGHT AGAIN! IT ONLY RESTARTED AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY TWICE. WE AREN'T SPENDING MONEY ON A NEW BATTERY UNTIL WE KNOW EXACTLY WHAT'S WRONG.

I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TWO TIMES FOR THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT THAT HAVE REPLACED THE BLOWER THE FILTERS AND SO ON. EVERY TIME THE AC OR HEAT COMES ON THE CAR STARTS SHAKING AND JERKING WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THE YESTERDAY WHILE DRIVING BACK IN TO POST THE VEHICLE STARTED JERKING WHILE IN MOTION AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAVE SPENT A TILE OF ABOUT 700-800$ ON THIS PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING THAT THE DEALERSHIP CAN NOT FIX.

MY CAR WENT DEAD WHILE DRIVING. TOOK TO THE SHOP AND SAID THERE WAS A "SOFTWARE UPDATE/RECALL" THAT CAUSED THE CAR TO USE MORE OIL THAN NORMAL AND I WAS DRIVING WITH NO OIL!!!!! THIS "RECALL" UPDATE HAD BEEN RELEASED "6 DAYS AGO" PER MY DODGE/CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. WHY IS THIS RECALL NOT HERE? SOUNDS VERY STRANGE TO ME.

CAR BURNS OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE-POURING IN ABOUT A QUART PER WEEK. IF IT GETS TOO LOW (EVEN BEFORE SUGGESTED OIL CHANGE MILEAGE) THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. NO WARNING OR INDICATOR LIGHTS. THE ENTIRE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. CURRENTLY HAPPENED 3 TIMES TO ME-OIL WAS LOW EACH TIME. VERY SCARY!

THE CAR RANDOMLY SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS AT A LIGHT. IT HAS DONE THIS SEVERAL TIMES AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. I ALMOST GOT REAR ENDED. THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS. IT WAS IN MOTION ONCE AND THE WHEEL LOCKED UP. BUT IT WAS A VERY SLOW MOTION. SECOND TIME I WAS TAKING OFF FROM A STOP

THE CAR WILL JUST SHUT OFF IN IDLE , SOMETIMES IT WILL START RIGHT BACK UP, OTHERS YOU HAVE TO WAIT A FEW MINUTES. TOOK IT TO DEALER A FEW TIMES AND THEY KEEP SAYING THAT IT IS BECAUSE WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW IT THIS MODEL THAT HAPPENS SO I HAVE TO GET THE OIL CHANGED ONCE A MONTH

EXCESIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. 1 QUART EVERY 750 TO 800 MILES.

MY SISTER WAS DRIVING WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY TURN OFF ON THE STREET. SHE TURNED IT BACK ON AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE, I'M AFRAID OF DRIVING THE CAR AND SOMETHING WORSE MAY HAPPEN.

I PULLED TO MY HOME AND THE SERVICE SHIFTER INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN PUTTING MY CAR IN REVERSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THE WHILE DRIVING 30-35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO RESTART. THE SHIFT TO PARK WARNING LIGHT WAS BLINKING. THE CONTACT ADDED OIL TO VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CALLED KEVIN'S ROYAL AUTOMOTIVE (3961-3964 WAVERLY RD, OWEGO, NY 13827, (607) 687-3412) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED AND THAT THE SAFETY FEATURE WAS ENGAGED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THE SAFETY FEATURE ENGAGED WHEN THE OIL LEVEL WAS LOW. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

FILLED UP ON GAS, WHEN STARTING THE CARE IT STATED OIL CHANGE SOON. 3 MILES DOWN THE ROAD THE CAR STARTED TO SHUTTER LIKE IT WANTED TO SHUT OFF. WITH IN 20 MILES IT DID THIS 7 TIMES ON A FREEWAY. WHEN ON THE SURFACE STREETS IF THE CAR WAS STOPPED IT WOULD SHUTTER THEN TURN OFF. IT WOULD STATE PLACE INTO PARK AND RESTART VEHICLE. I WAS NOT OVER DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I DID NOT LET EVEN THE GAS LIGHT COME ON. I HAD BEEN DRIVING THE CAR FINE TILL THE OIL CHANGE SOON LIGHT CAME ON. *TR

VEHICLE STALLS AT START OF DAY AFTER DRIVING NO MORE THAN A HALF A MILE. THIS HAS HAPPENED FOR THE PAST TWO DAYS IN TRAFFIC. BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON AFTER STALLS AND DOES NOT START. LETTING IT SIT FOR AWHILE IT EVENTUALLY STARTS. BATTERY WAS FULLY TESTED AND HOLDS CHARGE. DECIDED TO PARK VEHICLE AND HAVE IT TOWED TO DEALER AS TO NOT RISK TRAFFIC CRASH.

EXCESSIVE OIL LOSS IN ENGINE. LITTLE OIL ON DIPSTICK. OIL CHANGE IS NOT DUE FOR ANOTHER 4,774 MILES. VEHICLE STALLS WHEN DRIVING NO MORE THAN 1/2 MILE.

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN, I LOST ALL CONTROL. A MESSAGE POPPED UP THAT SAID 'APPLY BRAKE AND PUT IN PARK OR NEUTRAL' THE ENGINE SLOWLY LOST ALL ACCELERATION AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE CAR BEEPS AND SAID 'LOW BATTERY' BUT ALL LIGHTS AND VOLTAGE READING WAS COMPLETELY NORMAL. I TURNED CAR OFF, RESTARTED CAR, AND IT WAS FINE, I DRIVE IT ANOTHER 100 METERS AND IT REPEATS THIS EXACT CYCLE ALL THE WAY HOME.

IN MARCH, DRIVING DOWN RED ROAD - CAR SUDDENLY STALLED AND THEN SHUT DOWN COMPLETELY. AS IT WAS SHUTTING DOWN, I WAS ABLE TO MOVE IT TO THE RIGHT LANE AS TO AVOID THE TRAFFIC. CALLED TOW TRUCK AND WHEN THEY CAME, WENT TO JUMP THE CAR AND THERE WAS NO NEED - CAR STARTED. WENT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT'S AN ISSUE WITH THIS CAR THAT I CAN'T WAIT UNTIL THE OIL IS LOW. PANDEMIC CAME SO DIDN'T DRIVE MUCH - LAST THURSDAY, 7/18, I GOT IN THE CAR AND IT DIDN'T START AGAIN - I WAITED A WHILE AND IT HESITATED STARTING. FINALLY STARTED AND WENT TO DO GROCERIES. LEAVING THE STORE, THE SAME THING HAPPENED, THE CAR DID NOT START AT ALL, CONTINUED TO TRY AND IT FINALLY STARTED. TOOK CAR TO THE DEALER 7/17/20 - STILL 1,000 MILES TO GO BEFORE NEXT OIL...

AS DRIVING VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN LOOSE ALL CONTROL. MESSAGE POPS UP THAT SAYS. APPLY BRAKE AND PUT IN PARK OR NEUTRAL. ENGINE SHUTS DOWN. IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY. VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 45-50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. AN AUDIBLE CHIME WAS HEARD PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE. ZIMMER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1086 BURLINGTON PIKE, FLORENCE, KY 41042), WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE DEALER THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE RECEIVED FOUR OIL CHANGES WITHIN 24 MILES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 24,000.

THE MESSAGE SERVICE SHIFTER APPEARS, AND ALL OF THE GEARS ON THE GEAR SHIFT LIGHT UP. THERE IS NO SPECIFIC REASON THIS HAPPENS. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, SOMETIMES WHILE IN MOTION AND BRAKING, SOMETIMES WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED. IT STARTED WHEN MY CAR WAS NO LONGER UNDER THE 32,000 MILE WARRANTY AT THE DEALERSHIP. THIS SEEMS TO BE A POPULAR ISSUE AFTER I RESEARCHED IT. *TR

BOUGHT MY VEHICLE 12/21/2017. HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS EVER SINCE. TOOK MY CAR TO [XXX] IN AUSTIN WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED SEVERAL DIFFERENT TIMES. I WAS ALWAYS TOLD THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. IN NOVEMBER 2019 MY CAR BROKE DOWN AND I PAID TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP IN SA SINCE THAT IS WHERE I WAS RELOCATED TO FOR WORK. BLAMED IT ON MY OIL WHICH I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED BY MY VEHICLE IT WAS EVEN LOW. ENGINE HAS NOT BEEN ACTING RIGHT SINCE. 5/21/2020 I WENT ON A TRIP BUT ONLY MADE IT TO WACO.

NOW I AM BEING TOLD...

TURNED ON JUST FINE, PULLED OUT TO THE STREET FROM THE STORE GRADUALLY. SLOWED DOWN FOR THE RED LIGHT AND BEFORE I STOPPED ALL THE RED LIGHTS TURNED ON ON THE SHIFTER AND THEN ON MY SCREEN IT SAID SERVICE SHIFTER. I'VE ONLY OWN THIS CAR FOR A MONTH AND DOESN'T EVEN HAVE PLATES ON IT YET. 43000 MILES WHEN BOUGHT AND I'M NOT A HAPPY PERSON

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2018 JEEP CHEROKEE LATITUDE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITH AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS INTENDED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO QUIRK CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF DORCHESTER (40 HALLET ST, BOSTON, MA 02124) WHERE THE GEAR SHIFTER BEZEL WAS REPLACED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED SOON AFTER THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE A 40 POINT INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS LINKED TO A LOW OIL PRESSURE. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO MONITOR THE OIL AND TO RETURN ONCE THE VEHICLE HAD ACCUMULATED AN ADDITIONAL 1,000 MILES. THE CONTACT BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS AFTER DRIVING 1,000 MILES HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND A CASE WAS...

THE CAR WILL STALL WHILE MAKING A TURN (SLOWLY OR FAST) AND WILL ALSO STALL WHILE COMING TO A STOP. THE OIL LIGHT WILL COME ON FOR A SPLIT SECOND THEN CUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WILL THEN STOP RUNNING BUT WILL REMAIN IN THE RUN POSITION AND YOU'LL HAVE TO START THE CAR AGAIN AND WAIT FOR IT TO TURN OVER AS IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S DYING. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN AS I ENTERED THE HIGHWAY. IF I HIT A BUMP IT WILL SAY 4 WHEEL DRIVE IS NOT ACTIVATED BUT WILL LIMIT THE RPMS TO 2000 SO YOU WILL HAVE TO SHUT OFF THE CAR AGAIN. I'VE SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS AND SEEN THE 2017 AND 2019 HAD A RECALL FOR IT, WHY DOESN'T THE 2018? IT ALSO HAS THE SERVICE SHIFTER PROBLEM WHERE ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON AND YOU HAVE TO RESTART IT.

MY CAR COMPLETELY RUNS OUT OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. WHAT THIS THEN DOES, IS CAUSE THE LIMP MODE TO COME ON AND STALL MY VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENED IN INTERSECTIONS, AND ON THE HIGHWAY, BEFORE I MYSELF FIGURED OUT MY CAR HAD NO OIL. MY ENGINE WAS MISFIRING. I HAD LESS THAN A QUART. I HAD ENGINE CODES BEING THROWN NONE HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH OIL. NO OIL LIGHT ON. NOTHING. I DEDUCED MYSELF ONLINE THAT I NEEDED TO CHECK MY OIL LEVEL, THOUGH I WAS STILL ONE WEEK OUT FROM NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE PER THE VEHICLE SPECS (THE OIL CHANGE NOTIFICATION FROM THE VEHICLE ALSO HAD NOT COME ON YET). SURE ENOUGH, DIPSTICK WAS BONE DRY. I HAD IT RECTIFIED. I HAD IT VERIFIED THAT I HAVE NO OIL LEAK. AND EVERY TIME I AM ALMOST DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE MY VEHICLE STALLS. ANY AND EVERY...
