Consumer Description

AT 32,000 MILES, THE WARNING LIGHT INDICATING LOW OIL PRESSURE CAME ON. THE OWNER TOOK IT IMMEDIATELY TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALER FOR REPAIR, AS IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY UNDER WARRANTY. THE DEALERSHIP AND TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION REFUSES TO HONOR ANY WARRANTY WORK BECAUSE OF 'ENGINE SLUDGE'. AFTER ONLY CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL AND PULLING THE VALVE COVERS OFF OF THE ENGINE, THEY DETERMINED THAT IT WAS 'OWNER NEGLECT'. AND WILL ONLY LOOK INTO POSSIBLE CAUSES AT THE OWNERS'S COST. AFTER RESEARCHING THE INTERNET THE OWNER HAS FOUND SEVERAL CASES OF 'ENGINE SLUDGE' NOT ONLY IN THE TOYOTA CAMRY'S PRODUCED IN 1999 THROUGH 2001 BUT IN THE TOYOTA TRUCK'S SIENNA MODEL, AS WELL.*AK
