Description of the problem	My vehicle was burning oil faster than normal. I have since had my car in the shop several times before oil changes were due to top off oil do to several lights coming on: "min oil", "oil pressure too low". I have had several oil consumption tests each year as well as parts replaced: pressure regulating valve, crankshaft damper and seal. Had a 40 point inspection in 2014 at 44k miles and in 2015 requested a multi inspection at 55k miles. I had several oil consumption tests around theses dates: 3/714, 5/7/15, 11/12/15. After they changed out parts i had to change 4 fuel injectors in 2016. To fast forward i had all oil changes on time and had to add oil several times in-between services. On jan 11, 2019 i had another oil change, they replaced my oil sensors and breaks. 4 months later my "low oil light" kept popping up when i would turn. After checking the old 4 times it kept reading 3/4 full of oil. After i felt the car running strange i pulled over to buy oil and at this point i checked and it was bone dry. I put a quart in and at this point the car wont start. I had it towed to the nearest audi dealership who told me i need a new engine and a new timing sensor. They said the amount of damage the timing belt had done caused the engine to need total replacement. Yet never spoke about why the oil sensors kept giving the wrong reading. Since i have owned my car from aug 2013 it has burned more oil than i want to believe which makes this car bad for the environment and the air quality.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
