    Jeep Wrangler oil consumption

    Jeep Jeep Advice Jeep Wrangler Jeep Wrangler Advice Jeep Wrangler 2010
    The Jeep Wrangler 2-door 3.8-litre in 2010 has been using on average three litres of oil between services. Each time I have the vehicle serviced I have to purchase an additional 3.6 litres to top it up. I have been in constant touch with the dealer I bought it from, Jeep Australia and the NSW Department of Fair Trading. Jeep Australia has told me that this is a normal amount of oil usage per 1000 km, which I find difficult to accept. My daughter has a 2010 Jeep Wrangler 2-door 3.8-litre and her vehicle uses between 100 to 200 ml of oil between services. The warranty expired in March this year and the problem from my view is getting worse. What can you suggest I do?

    As you have tried all avenues open to you, the dealer, the manufacturer and the consumer affairs people, the only course left open to you is to take direct legal action. Before you do, however, I would suggest you go back to the dealer and ask to see a representative from Jeep so you can sit down and discuss your concerns face to face.
