NHTSA Complaint #10837609 — 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA

CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR OIL CHANGE AT MILEAGE DUE AND TOYOTA DEALERSHIP STATED OIL DIPSTICK WAS TOTALLY DRY AND TO CHECK IT AT HALFWAY MARK OF MILES. CAR IS NOT DUE YET FOR OIL CHANGE UNTIL ABOUT 95,000 MILES AND AT HALFWAY MARK OIL WAS ALREADY DOWN TO LAST MARK ON DIPSTICK. CAR WAS TAKEN TO TOYOTA AND THEY STATED 2009 COROLLA WAS NOT PART OF LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN OF OTHER VEHICLES EXHIBITING SAME PROBLEMS AS MY CAR. DEALER SAID TO JUST ADD OIL IN BETWEEN CHANGES AND I EXPLAINED THAT CAR SHOULD NOT BE CONSUMING OIL AT THIS STAGE AND THEY AGREED BUT STATED I WOULD HAVE TO COVER REPAIRS WHICH MIGHT COST BETWEEN $2,000-3,000 BECAUSE OF CAR NOT BEING PART OF CAMPAIGN WITH OTHER MAKES WHICH WERE ALSO HAVING SAME PROBLEM WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AT AROUND SAME MILEAGE. I STARTED OIL CONSUMPTION TEST SO THAT IT WOULD BE ON RECORD. IF OTHER OWNERS ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEM, 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN LIMITED SERVICE CAMPAIGN OF EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AS IT WAS INCLUDED FOR MOST OF THE OTHER RECALLS AND CAMPAIGNS.
