Consumer Description

2017 Hyundai Sonata Sport engine is consuming oil at 85,000 miles and has done so since early 2022. I have had the vehicle to the dealer on numerous occasions regarding this issue; oil light coming on and immediately needing 3 quarts or more to fill it back up. The latest encounter was 7/17/2022 when the check engine light came on and when oil was checked, it was on the "L" level yet again and this was less than 800 miles since the complete oil change where 5 quarts of oil was inserted. This engine is known for oil consumption and at 85,000 miles it should not be doing it at this rate. Another consumption test is being requested.
