The Ecotec 2.4L engine installed within this vehicle has been, at an increasing rate, burning oil. At the vehicles most recent change, it burned 2 quarts of oil, which is the most it has ever burned. I'm also concerned that the low oil pressure sensor warning did not come, since it was 2 quarts low on oil. Over the past 50,000 miles, about, the vehicle averaged burning about 1 to 1.5 quarts of oil. I believe there is something systemically wrong with this vehicles Ecotec 2.4L engine that is causes it to burn oil.
