| Description of the problem | I had received the extended warranty coverage letter for the excessive oil consumption more than a year ago. No issues until possibly october 2017 when oil maintenance light kept coming on event after oil change after just 1000 miles (usually every 5000 miles before). Then got car checked out and mechanic found almost no oil in car. Car was driving poorly with sometimes stalling. I got an oil change and car worked fine for 2 weeks and had same problem. Again, by this time, i remembered the warranty and went to toyota dealership where the told me the warranty was not valid due to car being over 10 years old. Anyway they filled car with oil and told me to return in 1100-1300 miles for the results of the test which i will later know. I don't have much hope of getting this fixed under warranty. |
