I have a 2018 jeep cherokee with under 30,000 miles on it. my car's stalled in the middle of an intersection while taking a right turn. my brakes and steering were locked, causing me to drift up on to a curb and hit a sign. no warning or indicator lights came on in the car prior to this. i had the car towed to the dealership that i am leasing the car from. i was told that this is common with jeeps, that the car will burn through oil very quickly, that no low oil indicator light will come on, and that the engine will shut down as a 'safety feature.' i was told that there is nothing i can do to protect myself beyond getting oil changes every 3k miles and that it 'should' be fine. again, there is absolutely no warning that the car will shut down or that there is an issue prior to it turning off while in motion. the car shutting off while in motion was referred to as a safety feature by the dealership who would only offer me an oil change as a fix.

Car will turn off. turn the key and pull it out, car stays running. when this happens, car is in a possessed state where brake lights stay on at all times, turn signals do not work, wipers do not work, horn does not work. took it to dealership and was told there are no codes, so nothing they can do. pull the battery cable off to shut the car down. this will happen mid drive so all of a sudden you'll lose your turn signals, wipers, horn, brake lights, door locks, and main light control. when you pull over, only way to turn the car off is to pull the battery cable.
