NHTSA Complaint #11318705 — 2014 CHEVROLET CAPTIVA

MY CURRENT PROBLEM IS THAT I AM NOW IN NEED OF A NEW ENGINE DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS ENGINE, THE SAME ENGINE THAT IS IN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, USES AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL AND THEREFORE HAS CAUSED MOTOR DAMAGE OVER THE PAST 6 YEARS. I REGULARLY CHANGE MY OIL, BUT DIDN'T REALIZE HOW MUCH OIL THIS ENGINE GOES THROUGH IN ADDITION TO REGULAR OIL CHANGES. IT SHOULD NOT NEED A NEW ENGINE AT THIS POINT IF THE ENGINE FUNCTIONED CORRECTLY. IN ADDITION, A FEW MONTHS BACK I HAVE DIFFICULTY WITH THE CAR NOT STARTING AS IF THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. NO ELECTRICAL WOULD WORK AT ALL IN THE CAR EVEN WITH A NEW BATTERY. I WOULD HAVE TO MESS WITH THE BATTERY CONNECTIONS TO GET THE CAR TO START OR HIT THE FUSE BOX. ALSO, I HAVE HAD TIME WITH THE KEY GETTING STUCK IN THE IGNITION AND DRAINING THE BATTERY.
