your engine should be handled under warranty, your dealer should have offered you a loaner that would have been incredibly slow but very good on gas.

its not about the car, they are replacing your engine under warranty work, they should provide you with a loaner car to drive until the work is done. this is standard practice. if you mentioned that you had another car to drive they would likely not bring up a loaner car though.

I'm curious - since you ran low on oil (which is normally a maintenance issue), why is the engine replacement being handled under warranty? Did you have a documented case of too high of oil consumption?
