| Description of the problem | Purchased this car from drive time 10/2016. Last two years oil consumption in between oil changes has reached putting 4 to 10 quarts of oil in this car. Recently had gaskets, radiator, coil and sparks changed (10/2019). I now as of this day (12/21/2019) have the same problem (engine failure). Gaskets has to be replaced again. I was driving on city street when the engine check light and the vsc came on. I have complained to every one including where i brought this vehicle from. It appears i have no rights regarding toyota and drive time and their unwillingness to correct their mistakes. I know this cannot be the case. Who is holding these entities accountable?. This car has stopped and i do not feel safe driving it. I have put more money in this car regarding this engine and i should not have to fight to get this corrected. This is a defect on toyota's part and drive time for the sale of this car under these conditions. How are these people being held accountable and what are my rights which i know i have. Doing research there was no recall. Why not. I will be filing complaint with the state attorney also. Something needs to be done. |
