Consumer Description

MY 2014 KIA SOUL (86,000 MILES) IS CONSUMING OIL EXTREMELY FAST. I HAD MY OIL CHANGED 5/2/19 AND AS OF YESTERDAY 5/26/2019 MY LOW OIL LIGHT CAME ON WHILE I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE INTERSTATE.THERE IS ALMOST NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR THE PAST 6+ MONTHS. IT IS GETTING INCREASINGLY WORSE. NO OIL SPOTS HAVE BEEN DETECTED UNDER THE CAR. I PARK IN THE SAME PLACE EVERY DAY. NO SMOKE IS DETECTED. THE FILTER INSTALLED IS A KIA BRANDED FILTER FROM THE SERVICE DEPT OF THE KIA DEALERSHIP.
