1 Engine Oil Leaking problem

Failure Date: 05/15/2017

The vehicle will drive fine then it powers down and stalls while moving. The restart procedure is to place the vehicle in park, press the brake the push the engine run button. This happens several times a day during normal operation of the vehicle and has happened in intersections. The manufacturer told me the engine is defective due to the casting process which causes it to lose oil that leaks into the engine somewhere and causes the engine to shutdown even while moving. They are replacing the engine but as this is a manufacturing issue I can't believe my vehicle is the only one with this issue. The vehicle is currently at the dealership. This issue occurred multiple times and without any warning whatsoever.
