NHTSA Complaint #10872551 — 2009 TOYOTA COROLLA

I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH EXCESIVE AMOUNT OF OIL CONSUMPTION SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS CONSUMING OIL WHILE DOING RANDOM CHECKS ON THE CAR. AFTER THAT I LOOKED ON-LINE FOR SOLUTION AND FOUND PAGES AFTER PAGE AND WEBSITE AFTER WEBSITE OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE SINCE 2009 TO NOW AND TOYOTA NOT DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I SINCE CONTINUED CHECKING AND TOPING THE ENGINE OIL UNTIL DECEMBER WHEN MY CAR STARTED TO STALL WHEN I STOPPED AT A LIGHT. IT WOULD TRY TO IDLE AROUND 500-600 RPM BUT COULDNT AND THEN THE ENGINE WOULD BRING IT UP TO 800 RPM. I HAD IT DIAGNOSED AND TURNED OUT MY PISTON RINGS ARE THE PROBLEM. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION ONLINE I SAW THAT THE PISTON AND PISTON RINGS ARE THE PROBLEM ON THE TOYOTA 2ZRFE ENGINE AND MAY OTHER ENGINES. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND SCHEDULED A DAY TO HAVE THIS CHECKED WHEN I GOT THERE IN FEBURAY I WAS TOLD THAT MY VIN DOESNT HAVE THIS ISSUE I EXPLAINED I AM HAVING THIS ISSUE AND WAS TURNED AWAY. I CALLED 1800 NUMBER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NO ISSUE AND THE ONLINE IS JUST THAT PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT A PROBLEM THAT DOESNT EXIST. UNTIL APRIL WHEN MY ENGINE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE FAST. WHEN I WENT ON THE HIGH WAY WITH IT IT FELT LIKE MY ENGINE POWER WAS A 3RD OR LESS BECUASE I WAS HAVING HARD TIME ACCELERATING FASTER THAN SEMIS WHO WERE STARTING FROM STAND STILL. SINCE THEN I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH BBB AND ATTORNEY GENERAL AND GOT A CALL FROM "TOYOTA CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CASE #1606030224" AND WAS TOLD BY JEFFERY MOORE THAT THE KITS FOR THE FIX ARE SHIPPING NOW AND TO TAKE IT FOR REPAIR ON 5/26/2016 AND I TOOK THE CAR IN A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER AND THEY CHECKED THE OIL AND PUT STICKERS ON THE CAR AND TOLD ME TO COME BACK AFTER 1100 MILES. AFTER TWO DAYS OF DOING THAT I GOT AN EMAIL AND A CALL. I CALLED BACK AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WILL NOT FIX IT AND THEY CONTACTED THE REGIONAL MANAGE AND HE SAID NO.
