Bearings fail, seals fail, lash adjusters fail, excessive oil consumption, poorly designed oil circulation system.

Engine clicking, huge oil consumption by engine that is probably dispersed into environment.

When driving at an undetermined speed oil light appeared on the dashboard. Consumer stated that vehicle was burning too much oil. Consumer added one quart of oil every 500-600 miles.

I am complaining about a problem with my Honda Passport. This engine also has an excessive amount of oil consumption. Oil consumption is sporadic, but can exceed more than two quarts per 1000 miles driven. Oil consumption occurs regardless of driving conditions or load on vehicle. In combination with no dash warning, the oil consumption can lead to engine failure within the regular oil change interval, which I had learned the hard way. Now having to replace the engine.

Engine had been consuming oil, was told 1 qt. /1000 mi. Is standard. At 54,000 miles engine eventually consumed 5-6 quarts in 3000 miles and failed - number 1 & 2 rods and bearings shot. Honda refuses to acknowledge any problem with oil consumption and blames failure on oil deprivation (lack of maintenance) even though oil change receipts and witnesses to last 3000 mi. Oil adds have been provided. Will not buy another Honda product, even if it is built by them!.

This car burns oil at a very fast rate, with no sign of leaks, etc. Took to dealer and they can't find source. I have to check oil level and usually replace each week - I drive about 150 miles weekly. Seems very excessive to me, especially w/ no suggestion on how to fix.

I am complaining about another (as the dealer puts it) "common defect" with my Passport. In addition to the valve train premature wear, this engine also has an excessive amount of oil consumption. Oil consumption is sporadic, but can exceed more than two quarts per 1000 miles driven. Oil consumption occurs regardless of driving conditions or load on vehicle. In combination with no dash warning, the oil consumption can lead to engine failure within the regular oil change interval. Engine failure replacement at over 10,000 dollars per dealership. No external signs of oil consumption at the vehicle's rear. **dimsii ivoq entry posted after 12/12/02 cut over to artemis**768007.

Low oil pressure indicator came on. When I checked oil, 4 quarts low. Vehicle had been driven 4000 miles since last oil change. Contacted dealer who changed oil/filter and has initiated oil consumption test. No visible leaks. Since monitoring, vehicle has consumed 1/2 quart oil in 400 miles. I am concerned about an engine defect.
