Guess I got lucky? 8500K miles and the dipstick always shows right at the full line. Had it changed at 7k. Didn't add any before or since.

Hello Hellbent,Hey I'm new to the forum. Hello everyone. I wanted to chime in because my '14 gt is also consuming oil. Already added a quart at 3k miles. I have contacted the dealer and I was told that it wasn't anything to worry about but to keep an eye on it.
You’re welcome, p0nypwr! Keep me posted and PM me if you need me.FordCustSrvc,
Thank you for offering assistance, This is greatly appreciated and not the norm as I've never seen a manufactures rep involved and assisting forum members! I'm going to just see how this plays out for a bit as perhaps it's just the engine breaking in. I'm only at about 1,200 miles now and plan to take it to my local stealership for it's first service at 2,500 miles so I'll see if it's getting any better by then.
Mine is a 2014. I called the dealer and they said Ford's standard is 1 qrt for 900 miles..
Entered your 3rd summer with it? Then you've had it for going on 3 years and only put 5000 thousand miles on it? That why you haven't consumed oil...you don't drive her.Hi, I've got a 2013 gt I special ordered. It was. Built on June 18, 2012 so I'm entering my 3rd summer with it. She just turned 5000 miles. To date, I've noticed absolutely no loss of oil whatsoever.
Mine has 51000 miles on it and is eating about 3 quarts between oil changes. I can actually smell oil burning sometimes at high RPMs. Not sure if its the crappy Motorcraft 5W-20 oil or what, but it is definitely burning oil. What year is your car? Mine is a 2011 built January 2011. Maybe there is a suspect batch of motors.
Sounds like my carWhat's up guys I have a 2014 5.0 manual purchased new with 69 miles. First 1800-2400 miles my car consumed 2 quarts of oil
It is a daily driver so I take it easy on this car pre warm up car before every drive and from the day I bought the car I decided to change oil at every 2500 miles. First 20k miles I took it to a dealer near me in which they said drive it more and keep bringing it back to us,the place was under reconstruction so employees positions changed I ended up never going back there for other purposes, started taking it back to the place I got it from Fremont ford and they said they would monitor and test it before warranty, so now at 48k miles the car consumes 3qts before 750-900 miles, it's only gotten worse. Apparently today is one of the last steps before they make a warranty decision. Waiting on there response but will keep people informed
