Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE KEEPS HAVING ISSUES WITH OIL. I GET REGULAR OIL CHANGES AN I HAVE TO PUT OIL IN IT EITHER EVERY 2WEEKS EVEN AFTER AN OIL CHANGE. I HAVE HAD AN OIL COMPSUMPTION TEST AN HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. THERE ARE NO OIL LEAKS AT ALL. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY IN CRUISE CONTROL WHEN IT ALL OF SUDDEN CAME OUT OF CRUISE CONTROL THEN I NOTICED MY RPM GAUGE WASN'T WORKING ALSO. I THEN CAME TO A LIGHT AN WHEN I STARTED TO GO I NOTICED MY CAR BEING SLUGGISH TO REACH 60MPH. I AT ONE TIME HAD MY PEDAL TO THE FLOOR. IT ALSO ACTED LIKE IT WANTED TO STALL ON ME. I MADE IT HOME AN INTO MY DRIVEWAY WHERE I TURNED IT OFF AN BACK ON WHICH AT THAT POINT MY RMP GAUGE STARTED WORKING AN THE CAR ACTED NORMAL. I HAVE ASKED KIA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM NUMEROUS OF TIMES AN I GET NO WHERE. THEY SAY WELL WE SEE THAT THE CONSUMPTION TEST CAME BACK IN THE STANDARD RANGE. I HAVE NO LEAKS AN I HAVE TO PUT OIL IN MY CAR ON A REGULAR BASES. I CAN BE ONLY 4,000 AFTER AN OIL CHANGE AN FEEL IT ACTIING UP AN THEN I CK MY OIL AN MY DIP STICK IS CLEAN NO OIL SO THEN I HAVE TO ADD MORE OIL. I AM CONCERNED THAT I WILL BE ON THE HIGHWAY AN MY CAR WILL JUST SHUT DOWN. MY CAR IS ALWAYS MOVING WHEN I HAVE THESE PROBLEMS. I KEEP GETTING THE RUN AROUND ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
