Ive had my 2017 chevy cruze for about a year and a half now ( Started with 40k miles but its now at 91k miles) with nothing but issues after the first 4 months. She stalls out, large clouds of exhaust fumes that could cause another person to wreck if they were behind me, Burning oil ( i go through one big jug a month), She shudders when i hit the gas after being either in park or stopped at a light, She shakes when i first turn her on sometimes. Ive replaced all my sparkplugs 2x, Just replaced all 4 coils, Oil changes every 10k miles, Oil treatments, Treatments on my gas. Tried to use different oil and oil filters and that did nothing. Last time i took it to a shop the only thing they found wrong was my oil pan was loose but i live on a big hill so that wasn't really out of place, After the appointment i still have the same issues with no fix. This morning on my way to work the service stabilitrak light came on with a flashing check engine light so i know its something with the engine but it seems no matter what i replace its just the same issues after a week. the stabilitrak has come on a few time but never more than a minute or two but this morning it was a good 10 minutes before i was able to pull off the interstate to stop my car and it sounded like there was a noise coming from my exhaust pipe so maybe its the catalytic converter? I'm really not sure but i still owe 13k+ on it and it's my only way to and from work so i need it to live until i can get a new one. Any advice?

Replacing the engine
Replacing the engine will likely cost 1/2 or more of what you still owe, more if you get a new engine. The problem with a used engine is you might wind up with an engine with the same problems. I believe it was the 16 and 17 model years that would crack a piston.
You might be better off financially just trading in now if it needs an engine.
