Engine Burning Oil problems of the 2012 Acura MDX

About 2 months ago, my SUV had a message alert come on while I was sitting still after just starting my vehicle in walmart parking lot after grocery shopping, saying to check the oil level; oil level low. Also, just recently, March 27th I had to add oil to my vehicle again; 3/4 of a quart low on oil. The very next morning, I had another alert come across my message board saying to check the oil level- oil level low. So I checked it again, it showed at the top of the hash marks on the dipstick as it should. So I'm not sure what's going on there unless it's a malfunction of sorts or a sensor issue. I check my oil when I fill up my gas tank. All of a sudden, my SUV was burning/ using oil. I have to keep putting oil in due to a low oil level look entirely too often. I've had to put oil in my engine at least twice a month. And I'm not talking about just enough to top it off, I'm talking anywhere from 3/4 of a quart to 3 quarts or more at times. There are no leaks, no puddles or oil splatter on the bottom of my truck or in my driveway. My truck is having a severe oil consumption problem. I know there was an extended vehicle warranty that was supposed to fix this that expired April of 2021-I did not get this vehicle until September of 2020. Also, I did do the thousand mile test and it failed miserably. No one can tell me if it was fixed or not, but obviously, either way, it did not get fixed or the fix did not work. It is a costly fix and it is a manufacturer fail, not mine. This needs to be fixed before it creates any future problems or years up the pistons in my engine or locks up. Any help or assistance would be greatly appreciated! thank you.

My 2012 Acura Mdx has an oil consumption issue that Acura is aware of being a problem, however it is not offering to cover the cost associated with fixing the issue. My vehicle burned through more than 2 quarts of oil in a matter of 1 month. This needs to be a recall as it's a safety issue with the operation of the vehicle. Lack of oil could cause the engine to fail.

I recently received a letter from Acura for regarding engine oil consumption. This could affect the performance of the engine. Acura is aware that there is an issue regarding this, however they are requiring that an oil change be done through the dealership at the owners expense for the affected vehicles. Acura should preform the inspection either in another manner, or they should provide the oil change at their own expense if that is the only option to check if this is an issue. The other option would be to allow the consumer to get an oil change at another service center that may be less expensive than what the dealer charges. It seems that Acura is trying to benefit from their own issue.

2012 Acura Mdx 3. 7 liter engine has very high oil consumption. The Acura dealer has tested the consumption in three tests to be about one quart every 1500 miles. The engine mileage is 86,321. This vehicle has always been serviced at required intervals by the dealer. I am the original owner.

Tl-the contact owns a 2012 Acura Mdx. The contact had been complaining about the oil consumption for up to three years. After doing some research the contact discovered the manufacturer came out with a TSB number: b19-006 on 05/18/19. It was a warranty extension titled engine oil exceeds client expectations. The contact took the vehicle for an oil consumption test crown Acura richmond 8704 w broad st, henrico, va 23294. They said to come back when the oil was low after close 3,000 miles. The contact took the vehicle back in on 10/17/19 and the dealer stated that there was nothing they could do since it was close to 3,000 miles. The contact has also spoken to the manufacturer about the oil consumption issue over the past three years. She feels that that both the dealer and the manufacturer had not been helpful once the oil consumption issue was discovered. The contact had not received follow up calls to address the issue or was alerted of the TSB when it came out. The failure mileage was 157,420. Tf.

The engine oil on this models burns out very quickly. I have noticed that I get indicator to change engine oil in about every 6000 miles even though I use synthetic oil which has the life spam of up to 12000 miles. I use my car for normal drive from home to work and leisure.
