(note: Acura is not currently included but in my opinion should be - I'm sure this will be rectified at some later point. In the mean time, partner with your dealer to monitor and document any excessive consumption!)

A $40K oil burning machine- Dealer states that Acura vehicles can burn up to 1 quart of oil every 1K miles. It does not make any sense.My old Honda (266K) miles did not burn that amount of oil. Current oil change scheduled every 5K miles, but at 4K, the vehicle needs oil badly! Acura answer was keep working with dealer or trade your vehicle.
