Description of the problem	I have a 2007 toyota rav4 i bought it on 06/21/11 used with 51,251 miles in excellent shape in a holler dealer i purchased an extra insurance from toyota dealer which promised free oil change, about 4 months ago i did a regular check i checked the oil to my surprise there was no oil i put 2 and a half quarts of oil in the vehicle i find it weird or rare this situation but i did nothing at the time so on 11/26/13 i checked it again no oil and what's amazing is the light never came on like the first time. I started researching the oil consumption to my shock i find that the toyota rav4 2006-2008 have a problem that was traced to the piston assembly and rings. I also found out a lot of complaints about the same situation with other owners with a toyota rav4 i believe this should be a problem toyota should be responsible for and fix this issue i also ask for someone to investigate the toyota dealer the type of oil they use to replace the oil since once i smelled the oil from the dipstick it smelled not normal like it should in conclusion i ask this issue to be handled with immediately.
