| Description of the problem | Vehicle can stop abruptly due to low oil as this engine improperly blows oil out the exhaust at a very high rate. Our vehicle blows out 1 quart of oil every 1,000 miles. The dealer has been monitering this problem since october 2019 when i found the oil level was down 2 quarts. The dealer will not correct the problem or elevate the problem to the manufacturer. We are left with a lemon. We purchased this vehicle new from the dealer it had 11 miles at purchase. This vehicle requires a valve repair or a new engine. |
