Description of the problem	Hi. I have a 2011 honda crv. Vin # [xxx]. It has a little over 98,500 miles on it. I bought it from schlossmann honda city 3450 s 108th st, milwaukee, wi 53227. It was a leased vehicle before i purchased it. I have noticed since owning it that it consumes oil. I have been doing some researching on this problem and have found out that honda motors have been reported with this such problem. My question to honda; 1. How long is this warranty on my vehicle for motor and drivetrain? 2. How do i prove that it consumes oil, since i have no prior records of service from the past? I do all my own work on vehicles, ie; oil changes, air filter changes, brakes & rotors replacement, spark plugs, and even adding air to the tires and pumping gas. You don't need to be a certified mechanic to do any of this work. I'm not saying that everyone is capable of doing this kind of work, but i feel i am. I have always worked my own vehicles since i was 16 years old. I have 42 years of experience with maintenance of vehicles. I have proof that it consumes oil, as i have been documenting it myself. It is (1) quart of oil down in 500 miles since i just changed it. I usually have to add (3) quarts before my oil change is even at 50% life left on the oil life maintenance display on the dash. I end up changing the oil early, (before 3000 miles or 0% oil life) of recommended schedule oil change. I use quality valvoline or mobil 1 oil, sae 0 ? 20w full synthetic oil. I also use fran oil filters ph7317. I don't use cheap oil, oil filters, air filters or inferior products in my vehicles. The same goes for my harley davidson. I look forward to your response on this matter. Sincerely, [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

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?
