| Description of the problem | I purchased my 2007 toyota camry 3yrs ago, this car burns so much oil, i keep my oil changed but in between oil changes i continue to add an additional 3 qts, i have inquired about this problem on several occasions to the car dealership (louie herron) in milledgeville ga, to express lube but no one seemed to tell me why my car was burning so much oil. It was not until this weekend i took my vehicle back to the dealership is when he advised me my particular vehicles engine needs rebuilt but is not considered a recall, i'm trying to get to the bottom of this, it is very frustrating as a woman to buy a vehicle from a dealership an later (3years later) find out the engine is shot, the dealership is aware but "i" was left in the dark.. |
