Yes, especially in vehicles beyond 30,000–40,000 km. Issues include:

Leaking valve cover gaskets

Loose drain bolts o r oil filters

Low-quality crank seals

Some users also experience oil consumption burning oil inside the combustion chamber, which is due to:

Worn piston rings

Poor cylinder wall finish

Use of thin o r low-grade oil

Frequent topping-up is required, and oil stains under parked vehicles are a strong sign.
