| Description of the problem | My car was consuming oil. After each oil change for the past year the oil in my engine would disappear. I took the car back three times complaining about the oil disappearing. Each time, they would top it off with oil and tell me to drive it for 1000 miles and bring it back. Finally, they told me that i would have to leave my car and an inspector would come out from toyota to make a determination if my engine could be repaired or if it would have to be replaced. The decision was made to replace the engine. Toyota told me that if my car had not been certified, the cost would be mine. They paid for it. This marked the third major repair on a 2010 camry after driving it for 40,000. The rear brakes were sticking and the bearings in the front wheels had to be replaced prior to the engine blowing out. Ridiculous! Absolutely ridiculous. |
