We went through this for 6 months straight where i would take it to the dealer, they would do the oil change, put tamper proof tape, and bring it back, sure as hell about 1qt left everytime. Thye gave me an option to replace the engine, or lemon it. The car was performing really bad
holy moly..... yeah that's crazy man. I hope mine is not like that. I'm monitoring mine real good now. So far, no consumption.

Sorry to hear about your predicament. No wonder you now have a Stang.

Does Lemon apply for how long after you bought the car?

haha yeah, they lemoned it right there, walked away free and clear...right across the highway was the ford dealer. Walked out of there in 1hr with a 5.0 lol

As far as the lemon law...not too sure how long it applies, but i had my 370z for a year total...the problems started at 6 months...makes me sad to think i got a lemon cause i really love Z cars and the 370 was just awesome up until
