[QUOTE="PerkM530, post: 13840, member: 2408"] We have a 2012 Equinox with a little over 100,000 miles. My wife always has always had her oil changed at a national store. She recently told me the tech had her sign a waver because the engine was dangerously low on oil. This happened twice as I started to talk to local mechanics who said it may be due to low viscosity oil. I started to change the oil myself with no change. I just added 3 quarts of oil after just 3000 miles. When I called a Chevy dealer I was told this was normal. Another friend mentioned that he has heard of this and there my be a recall out there. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there a practical fix or should I get rid of the vehicle? We will take a lose to get rid of is so I hope we can correct the issue. Thank you Mark [/QUOTE]
