Not too experienced with new cars, or newer/unused engines in general. My guess is the engineering of the engine. Whether it's piston rings or valve seals or something. Somethigns not right when the engine is cold or when the engine is at operating tempature as the engines metal expands. I understand I was breaking in my engine in the beginning but wondering if it is gonna be a continuos issue. I only had 1 quart missing at 3,000 miles. As far as I know the engines are already broken in before the car reaches a dealership according to my local dealership. So it's a preference these days to follow a break in procedure. I followed it anyhow.

I never had this issue at all, with a chevy, honda or dodge. However I never had them brand new
