NHTSA Complaint #10929724 — 2010 TOYOTA PRIUS

MY TOYOTA PRIUS HAS NOT BEEN IDENTIFIED AS ONE OF THE MODELS IN THIS CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT, BUT APPROXIMATELY FOUR MONTHS AGO, AT 110,000 MILES, MY VEHICLE STARTED TO BURN OIL EXCESSIVELY, CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO FILL IT EVERY 1,200 MILES. I TAKE IT IN FOR MAINTENANCE TO THE SAME PERSON AT THE SAME DEALERSHIP SINCE I HAVE OWNED THE CAR NEW. I WAS NOTIFIED OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THE PISTON RINGS WITH THE OTHER TOYOTA MODELS AND THAT SOME OF THE PRIUS MODELS HAVE ALSO HAD THIS ISSUE. THIS HAS ME VERY CONCERNED THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE BEEN LEFT OUT OF THIS SUIT. CONSIDERING THERE ARE MILLIONS OF PRIUS OWNERS THAT HAVE STOOD BEHIND TOYOTA AND THE PRIUS AS THE TOP HYBRID ON THE MARKET,THERE NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING DONE ABOUT THIS. TOYOTA OIL CONSUMPTION DEFECT CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IS APRIL LAX, ET AL. V. TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION, ET AL., CASE NO. 14-CV-01490, IN THE U.S. DISTRICT COURT FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA.
