Low oil, won't start

PLEASE HELP!!
yesterday I got the low oil light on and my mechanic had warn me that my 2009 Infiniti G37x burn the oil faster than usual so my car completely shut off in the middle of the road . I went to the store and got some oil and also a new battery Bc the old one would not work unless I got jump cables. Still my car won’t start I took it to the mechanic and went through scanners and nothing came up . Mechanic doesn’t know what the problem Is but believes it’s something electrical . Please help thanks.

Low oil warning... you mean the red oil indicator on the dash? That means low oil pressure. How long was it on? Does it crank over but not start?

How many quarts of oil did you have to add to bring the oil level to the full mark on the dipstick?
How often do you usually check your oil?
If the oil light came on while you were driving that is not a good sign.
Sounds like your mechanic is not well versed in troubleshooting and Infiniti.
Have it towed to your nearest dealer.
AAA will provide members a free tow
Good luck
