Consumer Description

MY 2009 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS BEEN BURNING APPROXIMATELY 1/2 QUART OF OIL PER WEEK SINCE OCTOBER 2016. IT HAD 128000 MILES AT THAT TIME. IT NOW HAS 134500 MILES. I DRIVE APPROXIMATELY 500 MILES PER WEEK. I FEAR ENGINE PROBLEMS AND POSSIBLE SEIZURE. I HAD A TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TEST DONE AT 129500, BUT THEIR VERDICT WAS THAT THE OIL CONSUMPTION WAS NOT WITHIN THE REALM OF NEEDING REPAIR. THE ENGINE USED 3/4 QUART OF OIL OVER 1250 MILES, BUT THE TOYOTA GUIDELINE IS 1.1 QUART DURING THE TEST TIME PERIOD.
