1 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 08/27/2020

Engine on 2016 Hyundai tuscon with 143k miles burning oil expeditiously almost to the point of seizing. Lost 3-4 q of oil in 1,000 miles with no check engine or check oil light notification. Engine is now being replaced at the owners expense. Could create a dangerous situation of sieved while in operation.

2 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 05/25/2019

Two issues with this vehicle. First, at 99,000 the camshaft began to fail due to excessive wear. The vehicle is now burning an excessive amount of oil and fuel. I am told that the engine needs to be replaced, but the dealership and Chrysler refuse to repair/replace under warranty. Second, the vehicle constantly stalls while driving. This happens 1-2 times per month, typically when breaking for a stop, or breaking to make a right hand turn. Very dangerous. Dealership was unable to identify the problem, but I see literally hundreds of complaints from people who have the same problem.
