| Description of the problem | My camry passed the oil consumption test in march 2015 at rick hendrick toyota, sandy springs georgia. I informed the technician that it should of failed because i was adding oil between maintenance visits. In december 2019 my car is burning oil faster than ever. The dealership (rick hendrick toyota in sandy springs georgia ) administered another oil consumption test. I am still doing the test. However, the manager told me the recall has expired and i am responsible for any repairs or engine replacement. I am the first and only owner of this vehicle, it has 145,000 miles. I should not be responsible for the manufacturers defect and possible oversight of toyota certified technicians. |
