Consumer Description

PURCHASED THIS CAR FROM DRIVE TIME 10/2016. LAST TWO YEARS OIL CONSUMPTION IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES HAS REACHED PUTTING 4 TO 10 QUARTS OF OIL IN THIS CAR. RECENTLY HAD GASKETS, RADIATOR, COIL AND SPARKS CHANGED (10/2019). I NOW AS OF THIS DAY (12/21/2019) HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM (ENGINE FAILURE). GASKETS HAS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREET WHEN THE ENGINE CHECK LIGHT AND THE VSC CAME ON. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO EVERY ONE INCLUDING WHERE I BROUGHT THIS VEHICLE FROM. IT APPEARS I HAVE NO RIGHTS REGARDING TOYOTA AND DRIVE TIME AND THEIR UNWILLINGNESS TO CORRECT THEIR MISTAKES. I KNOW THIS CANNOT BE THE CASE. WHO IS HOLDING THESE ENTITIES ACCOUNTABLE?. THIS CAR HAS STOPPED AND I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. I HAVE PUT MORE MONEY IN THIS CAR REGARDING THIS ENGINE AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO FIGHT TO GET THIS CORRECTED. THIS IS A DEFECT ON TOYOTA'S PART AND DRIVE TIME FOR THE SALE OF THIS CAR UNDER THESE CONDITIONS. HOW ARE THESE PEOPLE BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND WHAT ARE MY RIGHTS WHICH I KNOW I HAVE. DOING RESEARCH THERE WAS NO RECALL. WHY NOT. I WILL BE FILING COMPLAINT WITH THE STATE ATTORNEY ALSO. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
