While driving to work on the highway. My car begin to stall and hesitated. There were no warning lights no indication that anything was wrong with my car. I’ve been pretty good about keeping up with the maintenance on my car. I creep into work and ask one of my mechanics to look over my car because of what happened on the highway. The mechanic checked it out and found there was no oil in the car. It was not time for my scheduled oil change. He asked if any lights came on, if there was any way the oil could have leaked out. No lights came on and I park in my garage everyday, no oil leaks. I told him this isn’t the first time it happened. He put some oil in my car and I told him I was scheduled for an oil change later that week. He said ok. On my way home the engine to knock and again stall. I didn’t take the highway home. My car shut off on me just before I made it home. I decidedly to call the dealership the next day. I parked it in the garage.
