Do not worry yet. You have a 3 year warranty. I used a quart every 500 miles so I did the oil consumption test, failed and got a new engine. Now with 3500 miles on this engine I've used two quarts at a slowing rate. If you are still burning oil at 10,000 miles you ought to check it out with the dealer. I think you will be fine, although I may still be in the woods.
