| Description of the problem | The engine started to burn oil excessively about 1 year after i purchased the car in 2013 and now in 2018 there are 2 cylinders with low pressure and the dealership has told me i need a new engine. The car is not giving a code : check vsc system and the car cuts completely off while driving, no control of brakes or acceleration, very dangerous. I was traveling on a city street and the car just cut completely off and all lights and bells illuminated on the dash board. The oil consumption problem ultimately burnt the engine up and toyota would not repair the car. |
