2016 kia sorento oil consumption recall

We have a Kia Sorento on three different occasions the Kia has burned all of oil between oil changes once around 30, changes the oil went back after driving it was fine at the next oil change it was still fine. At our last oil change at 69, it was low again changed it went back to recheck and it was two quart low.

Oil Consumption-Oil burning in the engine. Kia acknowledges that there is a known issue however; the solution would cost me to fix, and its not guarantee. Their solution was to buy a new car, which is not an option for me or allow the engine to crash so it can be replaced fully, which makes no sense. With so many complaints on this, unsure why they don't have it on a recall. I am exhausted in fighting with them and the Kia Customer Care line has stopped responding to my inquiries.

Researched, but after reading everywhere online, saw that this was about normal for a Kia, so I just kept adding. I think about 1 quart every miles, but I never measured accurately. I did notice the spark plugs were getting nasty. At k, it burnt a valve. Replaced the burnt valve. When I got back on the road, I measured the oil consumption, again was burning 1 qt about every miles no change at all! At k, another burnt valve. At this point, I thought: oil can only get into the cylinder from piston rings, valve seals, or the pcv. I thought, maybe I have bad valve seals, even though I don't have smoke. Pulled the head and did a top end rebuild all new valves, seals, etc. Before driving it, I thought that I would install an oil catch can to monitor any oil there.

I traded mine, for GMC.

Is it the one way valve Kia used in their filters? This has been a nightmare with kia and I can't wait to get out of this car. After three oil consumption tests they confirmed this vehicle was burning oil approx. Then less than a month later, the oil light came on and Jiffy Lube says I have an oil leak.

IMO just sticking a larger breather cap, available at speed shops, directly on the rocker cover would smooth out crankcase pressure fluctuations.. I tried going the poverty route with him and he said he'd start a case but that it's unlikely KIA would help me out since I'm no longer under warrany since I'm the second owner and I'm passed the 60, mile warranty. In this KIA 2. That line is to repleteness the crankcase with clean air that is being sucked out by the intake vacuum. I specifically bought it because of the 10 year k warranty. How about 1 quart per miles like most us are saying here.
