1 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 05/10/2019

I was on the highway when the car shut down on me. I took it to 2 mechanics and they both said the motor seized. They mentioned that the car was burning oil after the fact. There was no signs on my dashboard. The only difference on the car that I noticed was the car had been running a bit sluggish . I've replaced the timing chain and fuel pump. The car only has 96,600 miles. The mechanic can't give me a straight answer just that the motor seized .

2 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 12/15/2018

Takata recall: we bought our Nissan Murano (2007) 16 months ago. It has barely 100k miles on it and the engine is burning oil constantly. My husband is adding oil to it every other day. Plus the transmission is rattling constantly when pressing the gas and the car has stalled at least 5 times since we've had it, one time almost causing an accident. We have young kids and this is our family car and I do not feel safe driving it.
