Consumer Description

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION, NEEDS TO ADD A QUART OF OIL AFER 2000 MILES. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. THIS IS AN ADDED EXPENSE AND WILL NOT GET BETTER. WE ALSO HAVE A 1998 GMC JIMMY TWO OIL CHANGES NEVER HAD TO ADD OIL. THE BUICK DEALER CLAIMS THAT THIS NORMAL, I DISAGREE, THIS IS THE 90'S POLLUTION IS A CONSIDERATION PLUS THE ADDITIONAL OPERATIONAL COST. I ALSO HAVE A LONG RENTAL RECORD WITH NATIONAL ,AND ALWAYS RENT BUICK REGALS, NOT FOR DAYS, BUT WEEKS AND DRIVE 2000-3000 MILES PER RENTAL. COULD YOU RESPOND. THANKS. *AK
