Started with the low oil light coming on, add one quart of oil. After adding oil several times and then it got to the place it came on every 500 miles, I took it to the dealership and they replaced the oil trap and upgraded the computer. I left and the oil light came back on, so problem was not fixed. Still adding 1 quart of oil when light came on. A repair shop said they had a service bulletin out for this problem and so I took it to them and they torn down the motor and found the piston ring broke in half and said it needed a new motor. Because of the millage it wasn't viable to repair the motor, so we decided to get a used motor and my car is still at the repair shop.
