Consumer Description

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION. I SURPASS PARIMETERS FOR REPAIR. DEALER INSISTS THAT I KEEP GOING IN FOR TESTING WELL BEYOND WHAT CHEVY HAS SET AS THE STANDARD. CHEVY IS NOT PROVIDING RESULTS. VEHICLE IS STILL NOT FIXED. VEHICLE WHINES AND HAS LOSS OF POWER. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I ,THANKFUL, WAS ON A QUIET RESIDENTIAL STREET. THE RECALL STATES OIL CONSUMPTION OF A QUART OR MORE AT 2000 MILES. I HAVE BEEN GOING IN EVERY 1000 MILES. I HAVE ATTACHED A COPY OF THE DEALER RECORD OF OIL LEVELS. I AM GOING ON THE 4000 MILE MARK WITH NO FIX BY CHEVY IN FUTURE. THEY DON'T WANT TO FIX.
