I have absolutely had it.

I again am plagued with problems with my camaro. It is losing oil like crazy. No leaks, no smoke, and not in the radiator. Must be valves or piston rings. I have added catch can and breather and did not fix the consumption issue. I lost 5 quarts in 3600 miles, 1 quart in 1200 miles. And then 3 quarts in 1600 miles. I changed my oil last week and have driven 360 miles and it is not on the dipstick. To make matters worse I just noticed a 7 inch crack in the windshield down low in front of passenger.

This is the first car I bought on my own and my first new car and I am not having a good experience. Here are my issues so far after 72000 miles.
16000 miles: bad pressure plate, broken pressure plate springs, bad shift actuators, leaking slave cylinder
Took 40 days to get fixed and did lemon law. GM settled out of court by a cash offer.
After picking car up after 40 days I got the car home and saw leaking fluid and weird noise coming from under car. Turned out to be bad drive shaft and leaking coolant line

Couple thousand miles later. Blown engine!!
Now 50 thousand miles later my car is burning oil somewhere..
