Description of the problem	I truly loved my hybrid camry until june of 2015 when my oil light came on and my oil was low shortly after having my oil changed. I contacted my mechanic and he researched the problem and found a bulletin regarding problems with oil consumption. I began to have to check my oil once a week and had to add 1-2 quarts per week. In late 2015, toyota sent out a notice regarding the oil consumption problem and offered oil consumption testing. I had my car tested and of course, my car was consuming oil. I was notified on 1-13-16 that my car was consuming oil and that i would be put on a waiting list for repairs. I continued to check and add oil to my car. I have now been told that parts are projected to be available in sept. 2016. In mid august, my engine light came on and i had to get my car to the closest mechanic as it was running poorly. I had to pull over on a busy highway. The codes showed the engine was misfiring and there problems with catalytic convertor. The mechanic stated that these problems were directly related to the excessive oil consumption and that the car is not operational and suggested we contact toyota. My husband contacted corporate toyota and was told that they are not responsible for anything other than replacing the pistons and rings. Both my husband and i commute to work, i am now without my vehicle (which i am still making payments to toyota), still waiting on parts for repair (toyota tells me to be patient, really???), facing charges to tow my car approx. 40 miles to the toyota dealership for repair once parts available, and paying approx. $1000 to replace the catalytic convertors before my car will be operational. I am completely disappointed with toyota for taking no responsibility for these related issues and the amount of time it has taken to address and solve these problems (still waiting). Will not purchase another toyota vehicle.
