    Uses excess amount of oil. Have to check daily. This is not normal. Have heard there is some kind of leak into the engine and a class action lawsuit. This should be a recall!!! Also, metallic paint is peeling- very cheap and stereo system components not working. Also makes a loud weird sound from engine when it first starts. *tr
