June 2019 CrashFireInjury

My chevrolet tahoe, despite regular maintenance per schedule, loses on quart of oil every 2500 miles. There are no leaks, smoking exhaust etc. The dealership told me this is a well known problem of unknown origin. The electrical systems on the vehicle have been a nightmare. The ignition will at times fail to turn off despite removing the key. The cruise control will pop out of cruise mode for no reason and will often fail to reengage immediately.
