At 15,595 miles I discovered more than an ounce of oil in the intake. I recognize on turbo and supercharged cars some blowby is to be expected. This is typically remedied by an engine oil separator (aka a catch can). The 2019 has a factory installed catch can (mopar part number 68320849aa) yet still shows signs of excessive blowby and oil consumption (google the complaints). The dealer (dayton andrews in clearwater fl) is telling me this is normal. Yet they can provide no service bulletins or any documentation from mopar/Fiat stating this is acceptable. This amount of blow by and oil consumption can lead to fouled plugs, PCV system and significantly impacting emissions and overall engine reliability.
