| Description of the problem | My toyota camry is using excessive amounts of engine oil. Beginning at about 90000 miles my 2008 toyota camry le equipped with the 2az four cylinder engine began to use oil. Subsequently, i took the vehicle to my local toyota dealer and was told i was two months out of my ten year warranty and any repairs would be at my expense. Today, the vehicle has 117000 miles and is burning a quart of oil every 700 miles. This is clearly a manufacturing defect that toyota should be responsible for correcting at their expense. |
