2 Engine Oil Leaking problem

Failure Date: 09/30/2013

Engine has used one quart of oil every 800 to 1000 miles since I bought it in 2013. No smoking, no leaking. Just disappears and no way to know where it went. Only had 38,000 miles on it and has 85000 miles on it now and still does it. Told by one place that general say it is normal for that car? don't believe that. . Was almost empty be time I was having problems and checked it. I had put 3000 mile on then and did not expect a oil loss like that. Have kept eye on it not to get that low since.
