Description of the problem	Discovered engine is consuming excessive oil, causing oil pressure light to flash on momentarily during a sudden quick stop. Engine has been maintained within prescribed intervals for oil changes using approved optional 0w20 oil. Now it appears to be consuming over 1 quart per 1500 miles. Haven't taken this problem to a dealer yet, but from what i'm reading in other complaints, toyota has steadfastly refused to take responsibility for this issue. Unlike others, i have toyota's full bumper-to-bumper warranty, good for 7 years or 10800 miles. I'm not sure even that would move toyota, since they could simply stall until the vehicle purchased 6 years ago is out of warranty. The engine probably won't die completely until after then, as long as i keep the oil level where it should be. However, i shouldn't need to check the oil so often, when the service interval is supposed to be 5000 miles, there are no leaks, and i'm using amsoil, a premium synthetic oil.
