Well if that's 9k miles in 9 months that's not really a problem, If thats 900 miles in 9 months that really is a problem. Without more information as to miles, driving style, oil used etc its going to be impossible to come to a conclusion.

It's about 3,000 miles in 9 months, light city stop and go driving with occasional freeway trips.

I just had my one year service at 9,300 miles. I purposefully checked the MMI oil gauge when I got to the dealership to drop it off and it showed my oil at the max line. I do a great deal of mixed driving, from city day to day, to 150-300 mile road trips on the highway, to jumping on 95 for a few miles to bypass driving through the city traffic.

It isn't unusual for new engines to consume oil before they are fully bedded in, as your car's manual will point out..
