1 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 02/13/2021

February 13 2021 I was driving my car back home from a hike going down a grid I had to break because I was approaching cars and my wheels started to shake. I took my car to the dealership ship to get the breaks inspected early morning. Four hours later I get a call saying that my break pads were burnt and that the rotors were warping and had hot spots. I've had the car for about a year and they are burnt already?? not even my dads GMC that he's had for 7 years hasn't changed the breaks pads since he bought it. Vw is charging me $700+ to change the breaks pads and rotors because it�s� wear and tear� at least that what they told me. I'm feed up having to take my car in every couple months. I've recently had to take it bc the car was low on oil a month and a half after I had just taken it for an oil change. They said that there were no signs of burnt oil or leaks. This is the second time it's has happened. Let's not forget that when I turn to the right the wheel fees like it's hitting something and the steering wheel shakes.

2 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 11/05/2020

My car is burning oil and running very well before the 10k recommended intervals. My car is only 1 year old and every month I have to add a half a quart of oil so I dont forget to check and run out of oil and get the oil light. There are many complaints about this vehicle burning oil. Vw says its normal to run low after 1000 miles. . . ?? how is this acceptable? luckily I change my oil more frequently than every 10k miles and noticed it was 2 quarts low.

3 Engine Burning Oil problem

Failure Date: 10/14/2020

I have about 14, 000 miles on the car and it burns through engine oil very quickly. Sometimes I can even smell the burning oil. Twice the add oil light has come one. It seems that a car this new shouldn't burn oil like this. Dealer says this is normal. Could it be that the oil is too thin? I have no idea, but frustrating.
