Description of the problem	Oil light came on indicating low oil although the car had been serviced at a local shop within in the last month. It then became a problem with continually having to stop there and "topping off" although i was going there when the "maintenance" light came on. It would need 1 to 2 quarts each time. Have to carry oil all the time in my car as even though we check it fairly often, every 1 to 2 weeks. It always needs oil. The shop wanted to diagnose the problem for me, but now i can see it is a very widespread problem which i feel should have been addressed years ago. *js

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.
