Consumer Description

MY 1995 TOYOTA CAMRY BEGAN TO HAVE DOCUMENTED SIGNS OF OIL SLUDGE DURING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE AROUND 1999. EACH TIME I WOULD HAVE THE OIL CHANGED AND ANY REPAIRS MADE TO KEEP MY CAR IN GOOD AND WORKING CONDITION, IT WAS NOTED THAT MY OIL HAD SLUDGE. AT THAT TIME, I KNEW NOTHING OF THE TOYOTA SLUDGE ISSUE. AFTER HAVING THIS DIAGNOSIS A FEW TIMES, I WENT SOMEWHERE ELSE FOR A SECOND OPINION SINCE THE "SLUDGE" PROBLEM KEPT RECURRING DESPITE OF REGULAR MAINTENANCE. I WAS TOLD ABOUT TOYOTA MODELS WITH COMPLAINTS OF ENGINE SLUDGE. MY MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED (1995 CAMRY, V4). I HAVE SINCE CONTACTED TOYOTA WITHOUT RECOURSE. I HAVE SPENT OVER 5K TO REBUILD MY ENGINE AND I AM SEEKING REIMBURSEMENT FROM TOYOTA AND PETITIONING TO HAVE MY MODEL AND OTHER TOYOTA MODELS WITH ENGINE OIL SLUDGE TO BE RECALLED. *JB
