Consumer Description

We have had nothing but issues with the engine in this. We travel for my dad’s radiation and when you get about 120 miles to 240 miles it just burns oil and you end up having to replace 2 quarts or more. There should be no reason you have to add more oil that frequently. There was a class action lawsuit against them for this very thing but only for years 2010 to 2013. This is dangerous because what if the motor blows when you’re on the interstate and you cause an accident?? Just like the Chevy recall for the windshield wipers (I almost got into an accident on the interstate because they stopped functioning in a huge storm) and there was no fix for it at the time! I didn’t know about the recall till after the wipers had failed!
