Consumer Description

CAR IS BURNING OIL. NO OIL LEAKS DETECTED VIA MECHANIC OR LOSS ON THE GROUND. HAVE TO PUT MULTIPLE QUARTS OF OIL PER MONTH. THE "CHECK OIL PRESSURE" ILLUMINATES TYPICALLY WHEN MAKING A TURN WHICH IS EXTREMELY DISCONCERTING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE, JUST GOOGLE IT. THEY ARE WELL AWARE THAT THESE CARS WERE INCORRECTLY RATED WITH THE AMOUNT OF OIL INITIALLY. VOLVO HAS DONE NOTHING TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION EVEN THOUGH IT'S A KNOWN PROBLEM.
