Our 2013 Lexus CT200H is burning/consuming excessive oil. The disturbing thing was that I drove from Chicago to Denver and during a drive out of the mountains, I noticed the oil lamp flash. I pulled over to check it and it wasn't even registering on the dipstick. I added two quarts, but it was still low. It took just over 3 quarts to get it up to the proper level. This is apparently an issue that Toyota/Lexus has yet to admit or fix with a recall.
I'm using the proper oil (Mobil synthetic 0w 20). We'll see how much it burns on our drive back from Colorado to Chicago.
