Description of the problem | I own a 2013 honda accord sport, 4 cylinder earth dreams engine with 65000 miles on it. There is a very known issue with excessive oil consumption and oil burning in these earth dreams engines. The piston rings are faulty causing oil to be burned in the combustion chamber. Honda had a recall for this issue in 2008-2012 and this issue is happening in my vehicle. Prolonged oil consumption can seize the engine due to no oil being left in the engine to lubricate it. This needs to be addressed asap as this oil consumption issue has never been rectified. This engine is burning 4 quarts of oil in 2500 miles.. There is black soot and the end of the tailpipe, which is a clear indication of oil burning. Honda beeda to address this issue with a recall to replace stuck or worn piston oil rings. Repairs for this issue are over 3000 dollars. This cost should not be passed on to the customer due to faulty parts or faulty engineering |
