Engine Burning Oil problems of the 2016 Honda CR-V

Car engine **under warranty** is burning excessive oil which can eventually lead to catastrophic engine failure. [warranty: 5 yr/60k miles; have owned just over 3 yrs w/ 38k miles] 1) having worked on my own cars 30+ years I noted it was burning far too much oil between changes.

Excessive oil (no oil leak) engine oil disappeared 2 quarts after only 3000 miles from last oil change. No towing, racing, mountains, etc. Contacted Honda, they say according to Honda policy only Honda vehicles that consumpt 1 qtr oil per 1000 mile are consider abnormal. Since my Cr-v consumpt about 1 qtr per 1500 mile, Honda say it is normal and will not honoring their warranty.
