Consumer Description

THE 2AZ-FE ENGINE IN MY 2009 SCION XB CONSUMES OIL AT VERY HIGH RATE. THE LOW ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AT ABOUT 2500 MILES DURING MIXED CITY/HIGHWAY DRIVING. I WENT TO A LOCAL DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THE OIL CONSUMPTION. CORPORATE TOYOTA TOLD THEM NOT TO REPAIR THE ENGINE AS THE TIME FOR THE RECALL EXPIRED. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF A PROBLEM. IF THE ENGINE SEIZED WHILE DRIVING IT MAY CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT DIFFERENT TOYOTA/SCION CARS WITH THIS THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE.
