I bought my car brand new in 2016. At 33,000 miles the engine failed resulting in the car shaking when accelerating in motion and the engine light came on. I brought it in and was told the spark plugs failed and they were replaced. At 58,000 miles the same thing happened again. I was told it was the spark plugs and these were replaced again. At 74,100 it happened a third time. I brought it to a different dealership. At this time, the car was almost 10,000 out of warranty. The dealership informed me that there was oil leaking out of my engine onto my spark plugs causing the spark plugs to mud up and fail and that I would need a new engine. After some arguing back and forth, fca, USA agreed to supply a new engine if I paid for the labor, which I did.
Oil does not last during oil changes, I have to add oil. There is not a leak or any issue, it is just burning way too fast. My Jeep was cutting off right after I would start driving (usually right after a turn) and I had no idea why until I noticed oil was extra low. So now I just make sure to keep it full between changes. Definitely feel like this is a nuisance.
I was driving to town and the low oil presser light came on I get off the road then my car died I was not able to restart it. I checked the oil and it was empty? I put 2 quarts of oil in it and them it stated right up. I took it to the car lot the next day and there was only 1 quart of oil in it. At this time I had only drove it 23 miles since I had put the oil in there, they told me there was not any leaks and that they would fill it up and for me to come back in a week. I really hope that I can make it a week with the oil they put in there I have set the millage thing in the car to 0 and I will see how many miles I drive and if it is out of oil when I go back.
