My 17 year old son was driving vehicle and it just turned off in middle of highway. The vehicle took several attempts to crank on different occasions. We were told it was a battery so we replaced and it kept happening then found out the oil was extremely low even though we were barely over a 1000 miles since last oil change. They started oil consumption tests and said oh you are super low on 2 of the tests, come the 3rd test they are now saying it’s within spec and just check the oil a couple times before each oil change. Why would have trust my 17 year old to be able to go off to college in an unreliable car?!?!? We have been dealing with this for over and year and now they want us to restart the oil consumption test.

Roughly 2500 miles after my last oil change I noticed while driving at town speeds that my engine was sluggish to accelerate. After ten minutes of driving I tried to execute a left hand turn and my vehicle's engine cut off completely. I had to guide the car to the side of the road to restart it. There were NO indicator lights on or messages indicating that there was an issue. I pulled over to check the oil and it was low (barely anything on the dipstick and DARK). I immediately drove to my nearest Jeep dealership and on the way there the car shut off again during a turn. Both times were during left-hand turns into traffic and I was lucky to have had enough speed to get out of the way. When I took my vehicle to the dealership, they gave me an oil change and told me to come back for an oil consumption test. Two months later (when I hit the designated miles for the test) they told me they'd found nothing wrong with the vehicle and sent me away. Two months later (and only 1300 miles since the oil change the dealership gave me), I was back at the same dealership with the same issue, low and dark oil. Luckily, I had been proactive and caught it before stalling in traffic anywhere. Again, the dealership offered to change my oil and do a consumption test, but nothing further. It's clear that the 2018 Jeep Compass has engine issues that Jeep is unwilling to acknowledge but these issues are dangerous and costly. I should not need an oil change every 1500 miles or risk putting myself and my passengers in danger.

Car will stall out and shut off in the middle of traffic or I’ll press the brakes and the car will shut off . Also with auto shut off the car will shut off when waiting for car to turn back on to go from a stop light . When taking a sharp turn oil pressure light will flash and then car will throw emergency break on and shut off for example while going around an on ramp to hwy.

Vehicle shut down on highly traveled city street due to low oil pressure. It was found that the Jeep Compass was consumming oil at a very rapid rate (within 1500 miles of an oil change). We have monitored the oil consumption regurlerly and find that we need to add oil about every 1500 miles. There are NO oil leaks in the engine or around the vehicle, it is being consummed by the engine operation.
