Never, that's N-E-V-E-R, add oil without reading the dip stick. Never.

If you are adding oil without reading the dipstick and the oil level sensor is defective, then you have added 8 quarts of oil to the 8 quarts that are supposed to be there anyway, and this gives you 16 quarts of oil. If nothing else is wrong, 16 quarts of oil will become problematic very soon.

If you are using a quart of oil faster than a tank of gas, there has to be a huge mess under the car everywhere you park it. Oil should be literally dripping out of the tail pipes if it isn't in a pool under your car.

Did mention that you MUST check the oil level on the dip stick before you add any?
