Consumer Description

VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW IN 2000. VEHICLE RAN LOW ON OIL AT 1500 MILES. FILED COMPLAINT ABOUT EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION FOR A NEW VEHICLE. VEHICLE NOW HAS 66,000 MILES AND BURNS ONE QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. THIS HAS HAPPENED FROM THE DAY OF PURCHASE. MECHANIC HAS STATED THAT THIS IS WITHIN SPECS, BUT MAY DAMAGE POLLUTION CONTROL SYSTEMS. I FIND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON-LINE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. *JB
