Description of the problem	The audi 2. 0t engine is known to have issues with significant oil consumption. The car has been at audi with this issue several times. During other service visits i have mentioned to the audi dealer that the car burns a quart of oil every 1000-1200 miles. Audi claims that this is part of the engine design in order for it to give better fuel economy. This is clearly not true. I have friends with audis equipped with the 2. 0t engine and they have zero oil consumption. There are multiple online blogs with other audi owners complaining about this issue. It is clearly something that audi should be forced to issue a recall to resolve the matter.

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.
