Consumer Description

ON MY 2014 ACCORD SPORT (2.4 L, I4 ENGINE), THERE APPEARS TO BE 'EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION' SINCE ABOUT 50K MILES. I HAVE TO ADD ABOUT 3/4 QUART TO 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 2000-2500 MILES. I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW AND PERFORM ALL THE MAINTENANCE ON TIME AT THE HONDA DEALER. I TAKE EXTREMELY GOOD CARE OF THIS CAR AND HAVE NEVER MISSED A SERVICE. IT NEVER HAD THIS ISSUE BEFORE HITTING 50K MILES. IT CURRENTLY HAS 77K MILES AND I JUST HAD TO ADD 3/4 QUART OF OIL AGAIN AFTER ONLY 2000 MILES. I'VE EVEN REPLACED THE PCV VALVE WITH NO LUCK. MY QUESTION IS, WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE SIMILAR TO THE RECALL RELATED TO 2008-2012 ACCORDS? I THINK MANY OTHER HONDA OWNERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. BY THE WAY, I'VE SEEN HONDA'S STANCE THAT UP TO 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES IS ACCEPTABLE, I ABSOLUTELY DISAGREE.. IT'S ENTIRELY UNACCEPTABLE FOR A CAR WITH SUCH LOW MILES TO BURN THIS MUCH OIL. I WORRY HOW THIS CAR WILL DO AS IT GETS OLDER. AT THIS RATE, WHO'S RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WHEN IT GOES BAD DUE TO THE OIL CONSUMPTION?
