1 Engine Oil Leaking problem

Failure Date: 06/06/2017

The motor has had an oil leak that started at 3000 miles and they have not been able to resolve. I am worried that this might lead to an enine fire. I have had it at the dealer several times for this problem and it keeps happening. With the powertrain the vehicle will not move then surges forward. This started around the 5000 mile mark and continues to happen. It acts like the clutch slips but I have had it in the shop several times and every time I am told nothing is wrong. This issue is dangerous when sitting in traffice or taking off from a dead stop becaue the car does not want to move at first and then when it does lunge forward it is not controlable how far it will actuall go.

2 Engine Oil Leaking problem

Failure Date: 04/12/2016

2. 4 l engine stalls and dies at highway speeds. The car also uses a great deal of oil, with no evidence of a leak. Have had it in the shop several times. Mechanics do not know what to do with it. Seems like a faulty engine.

3 Engine Oil Leaking problem

Failure Date: 01/18/2016

My 2014 Dodge Dart loses oil. The oil indicator light does not work. However the oil is not leaking on the ground and once there is no oil at all in the vehicle, it shuts off while driving. This happens upon taking off. The car has to put in neutral in order to start.

4 Engine Oil Leaking problem

Failure Date: 01/10/2015

I was at a complete stop, my foot was pushed down on the brake and it suddenly released from my foot followed by a whooshing sound. My brake system failed, and I had to use my emergency brake to stop my vehicle after I started driving it. I had it towed to a dealership and they diagnosed it as oil leaking from the engine into the brake booster. On 7/15/2015 my check engine light appeared, followed by the entire vehicle shaking uncontrollably. I turned the vehicle off, restated it and though the check engine light still appeared, the car no longer shook, and the check engine light went off a couple hours later. On 7/23/2015 the check engine light reappeared so I took it into the dealership where they are currently trying to diagnose what is wrong with it, but think it has a valve plugged or an engine problem. Both of these incidents occurred after I had an oil change completed on the vehicle.
