Consumer Description

MY 2005 INFINITI G35 COUPE HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING HIGH AMOUNTS OF ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. FINALLY, I ASKED THE DEALER TO PERFORM AN ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THROUGH THE COURSE OF 3 DEALERSHIP DOCUMENTED ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS, MY CAR HAS CONSUMED 4 QUARTS OF ENGINE OIL IN SOME 2,739 MILES. THE INFINITI DEALER HAS ADVISED ME THAT THIS RATE OF ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION IS ACCEPTABLE BY INFINITI STANDARDS. THAT I NOW COME TO LEARN THAT 2005 AND 2006 INFINITI G35'S AND NISSAN 350Z'S EQUIPPED WITH A 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS HAVE BEEN PLAGUED WITH THIS HIGH RATE OF ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION FOR SOME TIME. SHOULD THIS ISSUE NOT BE A RECALL ITEM FOR THE CONSUMER? *JB
