Consumer Description
MY CAR WAS BROUGHT IN FOR THE RECALL FOR THE FAULTY VALVE SPRINGS. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH AND A HALF THE ENGINE BEGAN KNOCKING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND AFTER LOOKING AT THE ENGINE THEY WANTED RECORDS OF REGULAR VEHICLE MAINTENANCE. THEY WANTED THIS TO MAKE SURE MAINTENANCE WAS DONE BECAUSE TOYOTA CORPORATE SUGGESTED TO REPLACE THE WHOLE ENGINE . I CHANGE MY OWN OIL BUT KEEP TRACK OF THE MILEAGE AND DATE I CHANGED IT AND GAVE THAT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SEND TO TOYOTA CORPORATE. THEY DENIED THE ENGINE WITH NO REASONING.
