oil consumption issue with 40th anniversary model

just wondering if anyone else with this model has had this issue. prior to my third oil change, i checked my oil and my dipstick wasn't registering. I placed immediately two quarts and with that it barely registered. I then went to nissan service department and told them about this issue. they changed my oil and told me to come back after 1000 miles to recheck. They also duct taped my oil dip stick so it would not pop out as stated by mechanic. I just went yesterday for my 1000 mile checkup, and they did an oil consumption test as stated by the the technical service bulletin. my husband actually brought the bulletin in when he initially brought the car in for this problem. they now tell me they will have to replace the short engine as per the recommendations of the bulletin. I asked what is causing this consumption problem and never really was given an answer. this is ridiculous! the car is only one year and 4 months old with 16,000 miles. I am really disappointed! I guess the duct tape should have been a sign! If anyone has any information about this issue that they would like to share, I would love to hear it.
