![]() I definitely think (and the service advisor agreed) that the reason that my emissions system is running inefficiently, is because my engine was burning so much oil. All during the same time period, my manifold cracked and I need a new catalytic converter. ![]() However, because of the excessive oil consumption, I have had other issues and problems with my car. Chevrolet had a recall for this issue (only if your car was experiencing this) and luckily it was covered to be fixed. I took it in because it was running poorly, they discovered it was 3 quarts low on oil, and then had me track my oil consumption (by checking the oil once a week for 2,000 miles). My vehicle was burning excessive amounts of oil. Not even one week after this was fixed, Jan 2018 my check engine light is back on again with a p0420 code for the cat converter. One month later, had to replace my exhaust manifold as it was cracked and releasing exhaust fumes into the cab with me and my children getting headaches while driving. I then reached out to gm personally and they were extremely rude and denied fault. ![]() Picked it up after being "fixed", yet again, next day check engine light cones on again! dealership looked at again and told me that the camshaft exhaust solenoid, replaced that and my check engine light popped on again days later but my vehicle also stalled out on me while pulling out of a parking lot and again while stopped in the middle of a two lane highway with kids in the car. Had the dealership fix the issue and I paid them for parts and lanor, all while dealership denying fault. Dealership said that the fuel rail pressure sensor needed to be replaced as the vehicle was dumping fuel into the cylinders. Ended up having to have my vehicle towed back to dealership (40 miles) as it was undriveable. ![]() Replaced the camshaft intake solenoid only to not fix the issue so we also replaced the camshaft position sensor to find that didn't help at all. Next day, check engine light came back on however, this time the traction control light came on as well and the engine power reduced warning came on the display screen and I couldn't drive over 20 mph the whole way home (twenty miles) with my two small children with me mind you. Dealership told me that the camshaft intake solenoid was throwing a code and needed to be replaced but it had nothing to do with where they working, I paid out of pocket. Day after picking up my vehicle, my check engine light turned on. Excessive oil consumption recall for new pistons and rings received one month after purchase. ![]()
