Consumer Description

MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY CONSUMING 4 QUARTS APPROXIMATELY EVERY 1,000 MILES. THE TOYOTA DISTRICT PARTS AND SERVICE MANAGER DECLINED MY REQUEST FOR A LOANER VEHICLE, HOWEVER, TOYOTA HAS APPROVED TO REIMBURSE ME FOR ANY EXTRA OIL PURCHASED. THEY DO NOT HAVE AN ESTIMATED TIME OF DELIVERY FOR YOUR PART AT THIS TIME AS IT IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER WITH TOYOTA.
