Consumer Description

MY ENGINE IS BURNING OIL AT A FAST RATE. I HAVE TO ADD 2-3 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES IN ORDER TO KEEP THE CORRECT OIL LEVEL. IT HAS JUST OVER 100,000 MILES SO IT IS OUT OF THE 60K MIKE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THIS WASN'T A PROBLEM FOR MY CAR UNTIL AROUND 90K MILES. SO IT WAS ALREADY OUT OF THE WARRANTY RANGE WHEN I DISCOVERED SOMETHING WAS WRONG. THIS IS A FAULTY DESIGN BY TOYOTA AND THE CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED AND FIXED AT NO COST TO THE CONSUMER. THEIR BRAND IS BUILT ON RELIABILITY AND THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING WHEN I PURCHASED THIS CAR. I WAS DECEIVED BY TOYOTA.
