Consumer Description

BETWEEN ROUTINE OIL CHANGES, ENOUGH OIL HAD BEEN CONSUMED TO CAUSE MY ENGINE TO SEIZE. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH WHEN THE ENGINE BEGAN TO KNOCK AND THEN STOPPED ON THE OFF RAMP, UNABLE TO MOVE. I HAD MY CAR AT THE DEALERSHIP EARLIER THIS YEAR FOR A RECALL AND THEY DID NOT NOTIFY ME OF THIS PROBLEM. ADDING A QUART PER 1000 MILES WOULD HAVE SAVED ME FROM DESTROYING MY CAR. I DID NOT RECEIVE A LETTER OR OTHER NOTIFICATION FOR A ENHANCED WARRANTY.
