What happened to GM. They were A great company. The car had regular oil changes (every 3000 miles). The car ran smooth, 1 day and the next day the engine light came on. Took it to my mechanic and the scan said the oxygen sensor was bad. While the hood was up I checked the oil and there was hardly any on the stick. Took 4 jugs of oil to get home and losing power all the way. Maybe dropped a valve guide. The engine is now toast. I check my oil 1 time a week. I guess this is GM junk!!! Ford / mazda are great. Have a little piss pot Aspire with 250 000 miles and it works great. Yay ford /mazda
