Description of the problem | Excessive engine oil consumption. The vehicle has 148k miles. This problem has resurface many times in the past and i get a warning that the vehicle need to be service. Each time the dealer informed me that the oil level was low and after they add oil and reset the warning it is fine until the oil again goes below the safe level. The car has been maintained by the same dealership since it was purchased. On the last previous services due to this issue i been told that the engine needs to be replace. Navigating the internet i have found various similar complains from customer were the dealer has replaced the engine. Since this is appears to be a manufacturer defect, i believe it should be corrected by the infiniti company even that the warranty is expired due that i have addressed this to them on various previous visits ( i don't have the exact time this first happened, the date below is a estimated guess) to their service department. |
