2018 Jeep Renegade driver assistance complaints

I was on my way to work, driving about 30 MPH, and all of a sudden, some "d" light came on, & then all the lightd came on & then I recieved a message that I need to switch my gears & my tire locked up & my car just shut down. I was not able to turn my car back on. After several attempts to push my start button, after finally getting it to turn back on it stalled out again. I was able to get it to turn on again then I made it home. I started reading blogs & it said to check your oil. I checked it and it was completely empty. I changed my oil last month and barely have driven it. I have a 2018 renegade with 24k miles on it. If my car did this when I jumped on the highway would of caused a major car accident. No reason why all my oil should be gone
It started four(4) months after I got the car brand new. I was driving home from work, I decided to take the back roads, I could not use my brakes. I took the car in to the dealership and the ecu had to be changed. A few months later my radio was recalled and that had to be changed. I've had a probably four(4) month battle with the day time running lights going off then coming back on out of nowhere. The first time the dtr went out the lightbulb was changed and the metal on the base of the lightbulb was melted off.( I do not have pictures of it the dealership took it when I showed them) I took it back to the dealership after the second time the light kept going on and off. They checked the vehicle and said the resistance was too high and they didn't know why. Therefore I had to wait on parts to change the wiring and sockets for the dtrs. It is a 2018 jeep renegade and I'm very tired of having to take my, not even, two(2) year old car to the dealership to get something electrical fixed every few months. I'm not sure of the date it all started so I approximated.

I was driving down the road and my car started stalling and just cut off each time I time to start it and hit the gas the car keep stalling and I was almost hit from behind my car would not move, I sat for 10 mins then I was able to move it out of traffic. Finally I got it started back up drove it maybe 15/20 mins down the road it did the same thing in the middle of traffic causing me to almost be hit from behind. I did the same steps as I did before so I was able to get to a parking lot and I had to have it towed to hendrick in concord they were out of cars he suggested that I could come get my car because they couldn't find anything wrong, I told him why would I drive a car that keeps cutting off that's a danger to me and other people on the road. Next day I had my car towed again to keffer in charlotte because the guy told me they would put me in a car and I explained to him that I can no rent from enterprise I spent $27 on lyft to get there and they didn't have cars I sat there for about 5 hrs and still ended up going home with no vehicle I had to miss a day of work and then I am going to miss another day because they have my vehicle and did not put me in a vehicle and did not want to own up to the fact that there employee gave me false information it seemed like everyone I spoke to blew me off and didn't care. I purchased the vehicle from them for about $24,000. I feed hearing something in my air for months and kept taking the car back and they kept saying they fixed it and I kept hearing and I also notified them about my car not picking up speed and because they couldn't find any codes they couldn't figure it out. I had have almost gotten hit from behind 3 times because my call was not picking up speed when I would switch lanes I could be going 70 on 485 and my car felt like it was going 20 and dealership refused to press the issue. The engine is the problem.
