Summary

14159c - special coverage (revised to adjust labor time). Some vehicles, equipped with a 2.4l engine, may exhibit excessive engine oil consumption (less than 2,000 miles per quart of engine oil), due to piston ring wear. If this condition is present, the oil can light may illuminate on the instrument panel or one of the following messages may appear in the driver information center: “engine oil low – add oil” or “oil pressure low – stop engine”. If condition occurs within term limits, dealers will replace the four piston assemblies.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 417 complaints in the engine category.
