Any 2011+ owners have problems with Oil Consumption?

Car is @15k miles (I got it at 11k)
I set the oil maintenance for 5k miles at my first oil change (pennzoil 5w-30)
I'm at 4300 miles on the counter.
Oil was filled to top circle on dipstick. Yesterday the dipstick showed the same reading, so no oil consumption that I can tell.
DD, no tracking yet, moderate driving.

Don't be paranoid. Some oil loss between changes is normal. See my earlier post. I check my oil every two weeks. I change my oil every 3,000 miles or 3 months and my oil level drops a little over an 1/8th of a quart. Check the oil following the directions per the owners manual.
