Description of the problem	My car has been stalling on the first drive of the morning for 4 days. Starts up and it's fine after that. Yesterday while videoing it to show a dealer, i heard a ding. Saw nothing on the panel. Reviewed the video, and i can only speculate it said oil pressure low. It lasted less than half a second and disappeared. I checked my oil and found it to be barely registering on the stick. It took 2 1/2 quarts to fill it. My oil change sticker states i'm 1200 miles away from the 4000 mark the dealer puts on it. I was told today by a jeep dealer, that the 2. 4 engine in the cherokee will use a quart of oil every 750-1000 miles if over 50,000 miles. I have 56,580 miles. The problem is when oil is low, the car will stall to prevent damage as a safety feature. Unfortunately this has caused me to have to coast across a busy two lane road while making a turn, so i could have been hit. It then takes 2-3 time to crank it over to restart it. This was not disclosed to me when i purchased the car with 40,009 miles on it. The dealers say this is perfectly normal for this engine to burn oil. I don't believe any manuracturer should sell vehicles that "burn" oil at a quart per 1000 miles. I bought a newer car for less maintenance. Now i have to add oil once a month to my car. Not to mention that if a dummy light or message comes on regarding something substantial to shut your car off, why does the message only flash so you can't even read it? I had to watch the video to see possibly what it said. I am unable to send the video from my phone because it is too large. I'm trying to get it to sync so i can send it. This is the flash of the warning message, not an actual stall.
