Engine Noise Problems of Honda Insight

I was driving in a line of slow moving traffic on a two line lane main street keeping a constant speed of 22 mph when suddenly my car lurched forward accelerating rapidly making a high pitched screaming sound. As the car gained speed I swerved into the other lane to avoid crashing into the car in front of me. Meanwhile I stomped on the foot brakes, pulled on the emergency brake and shifted into park trying to stop the car. Barely missing a head on collusion, the car jumped over the sidewalk, took down a steel sign, scraped over concrete barriers as it continued now at a speed of approximately 55 mph. It stopped only after I crashed it into the front window of a cafe. I'm concerned that this hybrid has a serious defect causing it to suddenly accelerate.

Checked oil level and found it below the bottom indicator mark (oil percentage life meter was above 60% at this point. . Took it in to Honda of santa maria, CA , while driving to dealership emission systems fault warning came on. They confirmed almost all oil was gone. They had me pay for an oil change to start a oil consumption test, and return at 500 mile point to view loss. They said no loss at that point. 4000 miles later the emission system warning came back, same as before all oil was gone. This time they did an oil change and wanted me to do a 1000 mile and return to check - oil down . 25 of oil indicator marks. Did no top off and went another 1000 miles and rechecked, 1 quart low on oil, but Honda America says this is with in tolerance and to date refuses to do anything g about it. My next door neighbor had same issue but it get progressively worse after 64000 total miles to point that Honda America finally offered to replace their engine at 10% of cost (they did not come in during warranty period). They so far refuse to explain why a modern car like this has such a huge tolerance for oil consumption. Along with this when I first bought the car it had some sort of windshield seal problem that caused a loud vibration noise at highway speeds or if high winds hit front of car at normal speeds (25 to 35 mph). They did fix this, but again my neighbor had exact same problem. Seem these cars a pieces of junk and no one is doing anything about it. I hope you will investigate this as more than just a complaint!.
