Bought car late March 2019 (new). Noticed oil was above the line on the dipstick about a month after purchase. The oil continued to creep up the stick in the following weeks. Set appointment with dealer for 7/5/19; they did a complete oil change and set the oil to the mark on the dipstick (2748 miles). Two weeks later oil is again creeping up the dipstick. I will continue to monitor the problem and go back to dealer when the oil rises 1/2 inch above are mark. Dealership is excellent and I do not foresee problems to resolve this issue. However, this type of problem can lead to damage if left unchecked. If it is a problem that is just beginning to show up it should be mentioned now so people are aware and watchful.
Update from Aug 22, 2019: On second return to dealer on August 13, 2019 the problem was corrected. The specs called for 5 quarts of oil for this car, but has since been corrected to 4.6 quarts. The service department again changed the oil (8/13/19) to 4.6 quarts, and the problem is now corrected.
