1 Engine Noise problem

Failure Date: 07/22/2020

When coming to a stop on a city street my vehicle dinged, turned off and a message displayed on the dash �shift to park or neutral, press brake, select gear�. I could not use my steering wheel or breaks during this time. I put the vehicle in park, turned the ignition off and full took my key out. Then attempted to start it. I only heard a slight sound but no turn over. I repeated this step and this time, after momentarily sputtering, I was able to give the car gas and it stayed on. I could smell oil at this point. It seems this is related to excessive oil consumption, which triggers the car to shut off to protect the engine. Except the oil level in the vehicle is fine and there are no prior warnings before this happens.

My 2017 Jeep wouldn't start on September 22,23 2018 while parked in driveway. It made a sound like the battery was dead and didn't have enough juice to start. After attempting to start multiple times and trying to turn off radio and headlight. It finally turned over, but after returning home from running errands, the following morning on the 23rd it wouldn't not start until I received a jump. There was a p code on the dashboard of car. Ive also experience issue with it not wanting to excellerate even with excessive amount of pressure to the gas peddle.
