Tl* the contact owns a 2007 toyota camry. While driving approximately 25 MPH, the vehicle shook violently when the brake pedal was depressed. In addition, when depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle lost power and accelerated without warning. The contact also stated that the vehicle lost oil after two or three days. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the radiator detached and leaked water, and the oil ring failed. Both components needed to be replaced. The radiator was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failures. The approximate failure mileage was 187,671.

Car goes through over a quart of oil every thousand miles. Toyota has known about problem since 2011 but will not honor because the car is just over 10 years old and has 150,010 miles on it. (warranty is 10 years or 150,000 miles) never was sent a recall notice. Contacted toyota. Would not honor.

We own a 2007 toyota camry le. We have always had it regularly serviced by the dealership it was purchased from. Around 145,000 miles, it started burning oil rapidly, around 1 quart every 1,500 miles. I started researching and found that toyota is aware of this situation but, unless the issue happens within 100,000 miles, will not cover the repair. This needs to be remedied as they know there is an issue with their vehicle.

My 2007 toyota camry ce with the 2.4l 4 cylinder engine is consuming engine oil at an excessive rate. Vehicle is currently undergoing toyota factory "excessive oil consumption test", and showing low oil on dipstick. On line research has indicated many owners learning either their dealer or toyota, or both are hesitant or refusing to perform corrective action at no cost to the current owner. On line recommendation is that this complaint should be filed with your agency along with two other entities involved in monitoring toyota motor company and toyota dealer response and remedial action.

I have an excessive engine oil consumption problem so on march 2016, I go to the dealer to check and said that my car pass the test without any suggestion to follow on, I still has this problem and even more serious so I go back to check then the dealer said once pass is not their issue ,I wonder what is the standard the pass or not pass and I call the main toyota office to ask for help and they said ,I can ask for the second test but I just pass their extended warranty that is just pass half a month ago. My question is I know my car has the problem but I has no suggestion what to do and they keep delay the care of my car until the warranty is gone . Actually my first approach this problem is still under the warranty period but that is not count?? I do not trust toyota car any more and I am so worry about the safety of myself everyday while I driving this car. My car is just 10 years pass and driving only 97320mileages when I ask them about my worry second time. Hope any good suggest and help from you otherwise I need to give up my car.

Oil consumption is really bad. 1 quart of oil every 200-300 miles. No visible oil leaks under car.

Filed Mar 7, 2017 · Engine · SC

I purchased this car used a few years ago. It has had a high oil consumption the entire time. It has been extremely aggravating and costly putting oil in the car weekly. As a single parent, I didn't take the car to be fixed because of financial reasons. I'm just finding out about the extended warranty and the time has passed for me to take advantage of the warranty. Toyota knowing about the issue makes it even worse. This should have been a recall instead of an extended warranty. I was considering buying a new toyota until I read this. This makes me distrust toyota because of the underhanded way they're treating their customers about an issue they knew about.

The car using 1qt of oil every 300 miles , toyota ran oil consumption test , told me nothing wrong with the car , the car still using the same amount of oil .

After toyota completing an oil consumption test they informed us they add 1 qt of oil and then measure how low it was after the added oil in the 1200 mile test and concluded the 1/2qt low was not enough to warrant repairs to the engine, knowing they have a defect in the engine piston rings it was actually 1 1/2 qt low in total and they wont fix the problem and said it could cost us in the area of 3-4,000$

I discovered that toyota has had issues with excessive oil consumption in certain model years. I have a 2007 toyota camry xle which was listed as one of the vehicles. This is my 4th toyota of which I have put on over 1 million miles between these vehicles. Now with this 2007 which now has 211,000 mi. I find I am having to add oil every 1000 mi. Or the oil light comes on. I change the oil every 3000 mi. Toyota told me nothing can be done because the extended warranty that was given expired in oct. 2016. I bought the vehicle in july, 2015 with 146,000 mi. On it. I understand that a letter was sent out in may, 2015 regarding this matter. That apparently went to the previous owner or the dealership. Now after 4 toyotas....1 million miles....they say nothing can be done! I don't agree.

I have a 2007 toyota camry with 155,000 miles that excessively burn oil at the rate of 1 quart per 1000 miles

I have gone about 2,000 miles of the 5,000 miles an oil change should last in my camry. I checked the oil because when driving and braking hard the oil light appeared briefly. I checked the oil and it appeared to be almost empty, I put 2 quarts of oil and it only brought the total level just above the low level line on the dipstick. This tells me I could stand to buy another quart and put at least another half quart. I've kept up with all of the maintenance with this car, having just installed a new oil pan gasket recently.

Excessive oil consumption

Filed Jan 16, 2017 · Engine · 88,000 miles · IA

Excessive oil consumption issue. Toyota will now offer any coverage or warranty. Issue just started showing itself this past fall and once I learned of the technical service bulletin, toyota said it was past their 10/31/16 date and the fact that the care was past the 10 year pis date (by 4 days). They now say this is a wear and tear issue. There is something wrong here with this many problems for many, many camry owners and no type of recall was ever issued. Very frustrating and very disappointing in toyota. Have had no other issues with this car or with toyota in my 10 years of ownership. Will now never purchase another toyota again.

Burning oil at a high rate. I have to add oil every 500 miles or so. We have always followed a plan of changing the oil every 3 months or about 4000 miles. Since about feb 2016, this high consumption issue has existed on this vehicle. We've owned the vehicle since 2007.

The valve cover gasket leaks auspiciously without knowing you are losing oil because there is no leak below the car. On three occasions I went in for an oil change and there was no oil in the engine. I'm concerned about the engine burning up without notice.

Oil consumption. I had the oil changed at the dealership in may when I started noticing consumption. I happened to check the oil a couple of weeks later and it wasn't even touching the stick, so I added 2 quarts of oil and took it back to the dealer and asked them if they even changed the oil. They of course said yes and we kept noticing it burning quite a bit of oil. I took it to a my mechanic and he immediately knew toyota had a recall on this model burning oil and advised us to take it to the dealership to conduct their test. We did the test which was drive it 1200 miles and bring it back and of course they said it only burnt a little over a half of a quart. I have been putting oil in this car most of the summer sometimes less than 1200 miles well over a quart. I have read several blogs and see where toyota has been sued over this issue. I just want my car fixed. Thank you
