Consumer Description

CAR DRINKING OIL, PISTON RING FINALLY DROPPED. I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR STARTED A ROUGH IDLE THEN STARTED KNOCKING SO I PULLED OVER. THEY'RE RUNNING TESTS NOW BUT I'M NO DUMMY, THIS IS A PISTON ISSUE. I BROUGHT MY CAR IN DURING THE MANUFACTURER SUGGESTED WINDOW TO GET THIS LOOKED AT ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WAS ASYMPTOMATIC DESPITE ME EXPLAINING THAT IT WAS DRINKING EXCESSIVE OIL. IF MY CAR ENGINE IS RUINED BECAUSE OF THIS TOYOTA WILL BE PAYING FOR MY NEW MOTOR OR ONE OF THEIR 2 DEALERSHIPS THAT KEPT INSISTING I WAS CRAZY WILL BE PAYING FOR THAT NEW MOTOR. I'VE HAD THE CAR SINCE IT WAS BRAND NEW WITH ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS TO PROVE THAT THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.
