After being 1.5 Quarters low, I added oil and my FSS jumped 1500 miles over what it was reading..

After being 1.5 Quarters low, I added oil and my FSS jumped 1500 miles over what it was reading. At that time, I had around 4000 miles to go before needing service and after adding the needed oil I was around 5500+ miles before service. I guess it rejuvenated the overall older oil checked by the FSS oil sensor..

Constantly adding oil. I'm now at 75,000 miles, had told my SA that I was adding oil when under warranty, he said they go through alot. Now I'm concerned.
