2007 TOYOTA CAMRY Engine Problems

MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE IS BURNING OIL AND I ALWAYS HAVE TO BE ADDING OIL, I TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AFTER I RECEIVED A NOTICE ON THE MAIL ABOUT MY CAR HAVING A WARRANTY PROBLEM, EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. THEY SAID THAT THE CAR WAS FINE AND THEY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND I TOOK IT BACK AFTER 1200 MILES AND ACCORDING TO THEM THERE WAS NO PROBLEM, THIS STARTED MORE THAN A YEAR AGO AND I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

2007 CAMRY CE, PROBLEM STARTED WITH CAR HAVING 75K MILES. CAR NOW HAS 102K MILES. OIL CONSUMPTION IS INCREASING. NOW CONSUMING 1-2 QUARTS EVERY OTHER WEEK. THERE ARE NO OIL LEAKS ANY WHERE. NO LEAKS UNDERNEATH ENGINE, ON TOP OF ENGINE, AND ANY WHERE VISIBLE OR AT ALL. NO OIL LEAKS! BUT OIL IS REQUIRED REGARDLESS EVERY OTHER WEEK! CAR IS STATIONARY WHEN OIL IS CHECKED. CAUSE OF PROBLEM (I AM TOLD BY DEALERSHIP MECHANICS THAT OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY "BAD" RINGS IN THE ENGINE). THE DEALERSHIP MECHANIC SAY THEY SEE THAT PROBLEM OFTEN WITH THE YEAR, MODEL, AND MAKE OF CAR. NO PAPERWORK PROVIDED.

ABS AND BRAKE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE ODOMETER AN TACHOMETER STOP WORKING OR GO UP AND DOWN WILDLY AT THE SAME TIME THE AIR CONDITIONER BLOWS HOT AIR. ALSO EXCESSIVELY BURNING OIL 1 TO 2 QUARTS PER 1000 MILES.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION CAR HAS ABOUT 88,000 MILES AND THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT HALFWAY BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I TOOK IT TO PERRYVILLE TIRE TO HAVE OIL CHECKED--WAS TOLD I HAD NONE. TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST, WHICH THEY TOLD ME IT PASSED AFTER THEY ADDED 1 QUART OF OIL AND THAT THIS IS NORMAL OIL CONSUMPTION. THIS IS RIDICULOUS--I HAVE OWNED MANY VEHICLES AND NONE BURNED OIL AT THIS RATE. NORMAL--BAH, HUMBUG. I DO HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH COVERS UP TO 100,000 MILES. I DO BELIEVE TOYOTA IS TRYING TO RUN OUT THE WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE A THUMPING NOISE WAS PRESENT COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO INDICATED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS EXTREMELY LOW AND THE VEHICLE HAD EXPERIENCED EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

1) FRONT HEADLAMPS BURN WEAK AND PLASTIC LENS COVERS YELLOWED OVER TIME, LATTER PROBLEM OF WHICH IS THAT LENSES CAN'T BE CLEANED BY EITHER COMMERCIAL AUTO SOLVENTS OR BY LOCAL MECHANIC, CREATING SAFETY HAZARD FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT. PRICE QUOTED FOR PARTS ALONE VIA TOYOTA IS $818 FOR HEADLAMP SET, PLUS LABOR. I HAVE OWNED 2 OTHER CAMRY MODELS AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUE WITH HEADLAMP OBFUSCATION DUE TO LENS MATERIAL OR BULB COMPOSITION. THIS VEHICLE'S HEADLAMP LENS COMPOSITION IS FILMY TO CLOUDY TO NAKED EYE IN DAYLIGHT, NOT NEARLY CRYSTAL CLEAR AS WHEN NEW.. EVEN IF BULBS WERE REPLACED THE LENS WOULD OBSCURE RADIUS AND LENGTH OF HEADLAMP FOR ANY NIGHT DISTANCE DRIVING OTHER THAN HEAVILY LIT STREETS. MUST USE HIGH BEAMS AT NIGHT WHEN POSSIBLE AND WHEN NOT HAZARD TO ONCOMING DRIVERS. EVEN HIGH BEAM DISTANCE DULL. NOTICED WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AND OTHER CARS ILLUMINATE THEIR OWN...

WENT TO HAVE MY OIL CHECK BECAUSE MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON / MY MECHANIC CHECK THE OIL STICK THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE CAR AT ALL. SO HE CHECK TO MAKE SURE THERE WAS NO OIL LEAK THERE WAS NONE. THAT IS WHEN WE WENT TO THE WEB SITE AND FOUND OUT ABOUT THE OIL COMPLICATION PROBLEM. TOUCH MY CAR TO SCOTT CLARK TOYOTA AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY CAR. THEY HAD ME DRIVE IT A COUPLE OF WEEKS UNTIL I REACHED THE MILEAGE THEY NEEDED FOR ME TO GET IT TESTED AGAIN TOOK IT BACK ON 7/23/16 IT PASSED THE TEST AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS GOOD AND THAT IT WAS ONLY LOSSING A QUART OF OIL . THEY WOULD NOT FIX MY CAR BECAUSE IT PASSED THE TEST. NOW I HAVE A CAR THAT I NEED TO HAVE REPAIRED BECAUSE...

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION DIP STICK BONE DRY AFTER 1,000 MILES OR SO OF USE.

TOYOTA SENT ME AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST LETTER AND UPON TAKING IT TO RALPH HAYES TOYOTA TO DO THE TEST I WAS TOLD MY CAR DID NOT QUALIFY. I PERFORMED THE TEST MYSELF AND FOUND IT USED ONE OR MORE QUARTS OF OIL IN THE 1300 MILES SUGGESTED IN THE LETTER. THE CAR EMITS A LARGE CLOUD OF OIL SMOKE ON MORNING START UPS.

MY VEHICLE NOT ONLY GOT AN EXTREMELY STICKY DASHBOARD BUT IT ALSO STARTED BURNING OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I HAD EVERY RECALL TAKEN CARE OF AS SOON AS I RECEIVED IT AT & ALSO KEPT UP WITH ALL OF THE MAINTENANCE ON MY VEHICLE AT A CERTIFIED MECHANIC SHOP. I HAVE ALL OF MY SERVICE RECORDS & WITNESSES. THE END OF 2015 MY CAR STARTED BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I ENDED UP TAKING IT TO THE MECHANIC & HE WAS ADDING OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES STATING IT WAS NORMAL FOR IT TO BURN OIL. THEY ALSO WENT WITH A THICKER OIL TO TRY TO FIX IT.I WAS ALSO ADDING OIL WHENEVER IT STARTED GETTING LOW. WELL MY CAR OVERHEATED & CRACKED MY HEAD GASKET. AFTER GOING ONTO TOYOTAS WEBSITE & TYPING MY VIN NUMBER IN, IT STATES THERE AREN'T ANY RECALLS OR...

I ADHERED TO THE RECALL ZE7 OIL CONSUMPTION TEST NOTICE ISSUED BY TOYOTA. OVER THE NEXT 6MONTHS WATER/COOLANT WAS LEAKING INTO MY ENGINE THROUGH WHAT I LEARNED COULD HAVE BEEN A FAULTY ENGINE HEAD GASKET. MY 2007 CAMRY HAD NEVER RUN HOT BEFORE TOYOTA TOOK MY ENGINE APART AND PUT IT BACK TOGETHER. THEY DO NOT WANT TO ADMIT THEIR ERROR. THE OIL DIP STICK SHOWED SIGNS OF WATER OIL MIXTURE. LATER IT WAS LIKE MILK. THIS IS WHEN THE ENGINE STOPPED ON ME IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC FROM OVER HEATING. I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE DEALER AND TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS SINCE APRIL 2016 TO RESOLVED THIS. GOT THE RUN AROUND. SOME TECHNICIAN WAS SCHEDULED TO REVIEW THIS IN APRIL AND MAY 2016 BUT HAS NOT. WHAT SHOULD I DO?

90,000 AND NOW BURNS 1 QT OIL EVERY 1200 MILES. OIL LIGHT COMES ON AT 3 QUARTS LOW. SHOULDN'T IT COME ON WELL BEFORE THAT? LIKE ONE QT LOW.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, A LOUD CLUNKING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE STEERING COLUMN. THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATED WITHOUT WARNING.

IN ADDITION, THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MAY NEED A NEW ENGINE BECAUSE OF THE RAPID OIL CONSUMPTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,600.

MY FATHER-IN-LAW IS A AUTO MECHANIC. HE CHANGES THE OIL IN MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY EVERY 2500-3500 MILES. THIS IS WELL BEFORE THE RECOMMENDED 5,000 MILE SERVICE REMINDER LIGHT COMES ON. THE CAR ALWAYS BURNED OIL BUT OVER THE LAST YEAR HE HAS NOTICED THAT THE CAR IS BURNING SIGNIFICANTLY MORE OIL. HE RECOMMENDED THAT I TAKE THE CAR TO THE TOYOTA DEALER FOR A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I TOOK THE CAR TO ROUTE 44 TOYOTA IN RAYNHAM MA FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN WITH 147,212 MILES FOR THE TEST AND A OIL CHANGE. I WAS TOLD TO BRING THE CAR BACK BETWEEN 148,212 - 148,512 MILES. I NOTICED THAT AFTER I ORIGINAL BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR THE THE TEST, THE CAR WOULD IDLES AT 800 RPM WHEN STOPPED, AFTER THE OIL CHANGE AND TEST THE CAR IDLE AT 500-600 RPM. I BROUGHT THE...

I PURCHASED MY CAR USED ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO I CHECKED THE OIL SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE AND IT WAS NEARLY FULL. I RECENTLY HAD LOW OIL ENGINE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT COME ON. I CHECKED MY OIL AND HAD BARELY ANYTHING LEFT. MY CAR IS SOMEHOW GOING THROUGH ABOUT A QUART OF OIL EVERY THOUSAND MILES OR SO AND YET THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF A LEAK IN MY DRIVEWAY.

I HAVE 2007 CAMRY WITH A TICKING NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE, BUT CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON. TAKE IT TO DEALER N TELL THEM I COULDNT READ NO CODES BECAUSE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. CAN HOU GUYS HOOK UP TO YOUR COMPUTER? SERVICE ADVISOR SAID OK WE'LL TAKE A LOOK. WHEN THEY'RE DONE, ADVISOR TOLD ME WE COULDNT GET NO CODES THERE'S NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, &CHARGED ME $159. 2 TELL ME WHAT I ORIGINALLY TOLD HIM. RIP OFF.

MY VEHICLE IS BURNING THROUGH ENGINE OIL FASTER THAN NORMAL, I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO TWO TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS, THE FIRST ONE DENIED FIXING MY VEHICLE DUE TO A FEMALE SUPERVISOR SAYING THAT THEY WONT FIX A SALVAGED CAR, SHE THEN ALERTED THE SURROUNDING DEALERSHIP'S TELLING THEM NOT TO FIX MY CAR. THE DEALERSHIP IS THE ONE IN SAN BERNARDINO CALIFORNIA, I THEN TOOK MY CAR TO REDLANDS CALIFORNIA TO SEE IF THAT DEALERSHIP COULD FIX MY CAR AND THEY SAID THAT IT SHOWED IN THEIR SYSTEM THAT MY CAR SHOULDN'T BE FIXED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR A MANUFACTURER'S SATISFACTION CAMPAIGN FOR THE WATER PUMP.

CAR IS BURNING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL, HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CHECK AND FILL THE OIL. ITS GETTING TO THE POINT THAT I AM HAVING TO CHECK AND FILL WITH OIL ONCE A WEEK. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT IS GOING TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS????

THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. IN FEBRUARY 2016 TOYOTA TOOK POSSESSION OF MY VEHICLE FOR 3-4 WEEKS TO REPAIR OR REBUILD THE ENGINE TO COMPLY WITH THE RECALL REQUIREMENTS. I WAS PROVIDED A LOANER CAR DURING THAT PERIOD. DURING THE LESS THAN 2 MONTH PERIOD BETWEEN WHEN MY CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME ON 2/18/16 AND APRIL 10, 2016, I DID NOT TAKE MY CAR TO ANY REPAIR SHOP NOR DID I TOUCH THE ENGINE FOR ANY REASON. APPARENTLY TOYOTA DID NOT PROPERLY REPAIR THE VEHICLE WHEN THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE DONE. ON 4/10/16, WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE NEW JERSEY TURNPIKE, THE ENGINE SELF-DESTRUCTED, THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE, SMOKE ENGULFED THE ENGINE AND THEN IT CEASED RUNNING. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALERSHIP FOR WARRANTY REPAIR. ON 4/11/16, I CALLED TOYOTA FOR WARRANTY PAYMENT TO BE MADE TO THE...

MY CAMRY HAS CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND OIL NEEDED TO BE CHANGED ONCE AGAIN IN LESS THAN 3 MONTHS. TOYOTA HAS A RECALL ON OIL BURNING UP BUT THEY CHECKED LAST TIME AND SAID IT'S OKAY. EVIDENTLY IT'S NOT. THE MECHANIC RECOMMENDED BRAKE BOOSTER FOR THE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE WHICH COSTS FROM $750-$1,200 WHICH IS HARD TO AFFORD. THIS KIND OF ISSUE CAN COST YOUR LIFE. TOYOTA NEEDS TO RECALL THIS AND FIX IT SINCE SO MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE AND LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED.

THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 194,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THERE ARE SEVERAL ISSUES. FIRST STICKY DASH BOARD .. WAS TOLD I'M BEING PUT ON A WAITING LIST FOR PART. IT'S BEEN MONTHS STILL NO WORD. 2ND OIL CONSUMPTION IS RIDICULOUS. . OIL RUNS OUT WAY BEFORE IT'S TIME FOR OIL CHANGE EVERY TIME .. NO OIL LEAKS ANYWHERE .. CAR JUST BURNS OIL SUPER FAST NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS WITH ANY CAR I'VE OWNED ..3RD THE CAR VIBRATES WHEN IN YOU HIT AROUND 40 MPH AT 1.5 RPM DOESNT DO IT AS MUCH WHEN CAR DOESNT GO IN OVERDRIVE IN 4TH GEAR .. WAS TOLD THIS MAY BE A COMPUTER PROGRAMING ISSUE .. 4TH MY DRIVER SIDE BACK SEAT MAT IS MELTED TO THE FLOOR. I WAS TOLD SOMETHING UNDER THE CAR MAY BE GETTING TO HOT. NEVER GOT ANY REAL ANSWERS TO MY CONCERNS .

I HAD PROBLEMS WITH MY CARS OIL CONSUMPTION AND WAS NEVER NOTIFIED FROM TOYOTA THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BACK IN MAY 2015 FOR ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION REPAIR. THE SHOP IS NOW TELLING ME I HAVE A BLOWN PISTON FROM WHAT THEY CAN HEAR. I HAVE RECORDS THAT I NEVER MISSED AN OIL CHANGE AND EVEN HAVE PROOF FROM FIRESTONE COMPLETE CARE WHEN MY CAR WAS CHECKED FOR OIL LEAKS. THERE WERE NONE FOUND. TOYOTA IS REFUSING TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THEY SAID IT'S TOO LATE TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I ALSO SENT TOYOTA PROOF OF MY OIL CHANGES FROM FIRESTONE DATED 12/13/14, 4/11/15, 6/29/15, 8/22/15, 10/08/15, 11/14/15 AND 1/3/16. MY CAR WAS TOWED INTO COMMUNITY TOYOTA ON 3/23/16.

LOW OIL DUE TO OVERVER-CONSUMPTION: MY CAR ENGINE OVERHEATED AND ALMOST BURNT BECAUSE OF OIL OVERCONSUMPTION AND I HAD TO TAKE THE CAR AND GET OIL CHANGE AND GOT A REPORT PROVING THE VERY LOW OIL LEVEL.

OIL CONSUMPTION: AFTER 1149 MI, I CHECKED MY OIL AND THERE WAS BARLEY ANY OIL IN THE CAR. THE CAR HAS 149,000 MILES ON IT. THE DEALER SAID THAT USING A QT. OF OIL EVERY 1000 MI. WAS NORMAL. THEY SAID IT PASSED THE RECALL WHICH WAS TESTED AT 1000 MI. THEY REFUSED TO FIXED THE PROBLEM.

WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION IT HESITATES TO SWITCH GEARS FROM 2ND TO 3RD GEAR. AS YOU ACCELERATE. AT TIMES THERE IS A JERK AS IT IS DOING SO. THIS CAUSES ME TO EITHER SLOW DOWN OR SPEED UP UNTIL IT GOES INTO GEAR.

THE ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS OF MY TOYOTA 2007 CAMRY COME ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN THE LIGHTS ARE ON, THE WHOLE DASHBOARD READERS; THE SPEEDOMETER, RPM, ENGINE TEMPERATURE AND OTHER GAUGES JUMP AND FLICKER, THE LIGHT MARKERS FOR TRANSMISSION GEAR AND PARKING GO OFF. THE AC UNIT ALSO DID NOT WORK. I WENT TO DEALER TO GET IT CHECKED OUT BUT THERE WERE NO CODES TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE. I WAS TOLD TO COME BACK AGAIN WHEN IT HAPPENS FOR LONGER THAN A DAY. IT KEEPS HAPPENING AT VARIOUS TIMES OF THE DAY (MORNING AND EVENING), WHEN THE CAR IS STOPPED OR MOVING, AND ON ALL TYPES OF ROADS AND DRIVING CONDITIONS (CITY STREETS, HIGHWAY, AT A STOP LIGHT, AT A STOP SIGN, WHEN I AM TURNING). I HAVE NOTICED THAT TOYOTA HAS ALREADY ISSUED A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE 2007 CAMRY HYBRID. GIVEN THE SHEER...

MY CAR HAS AN OVER OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. BEFORE THE CAR IS DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE IT IS OUT OF OIL COMPLETELY AND DUE TO THIS PROBLEM MY CAR STARTING OVERHEATING AND IT CRACKED THE HEAD GASKET. TOYOTA HAS A RECALL FOR THE 4 CYLINDER MODELS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE BUT THE 6 CYLINDER MODELS ARE EXCLUDED. DESPITE THE FACT THAT I TOLD THEM EVERY TIME J WENT TO THEIR SERVICE CENTER. NOW I HAVE TO BUY A NEW ENGINE FOR THE VEHICLE THAT I JUST BOUGHT.

ENGINE CONSUMED 4 QTS OF OIL BEFORE REGULAR 3000MI OIL CHANGE, NOW ENGINE IS MAKING NOISE.

MY 07 CAMRY RUNS COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL BEFORE IT'S TIME FOR IT TO BE CHANGED. I HAVE HAD THE CAR CHECKED FOR OIL LEAKS AND HAS PASSED EACH TIME. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE I HAVE FOUND THAT THE MORE MILES ON THE CAR THE FASTER IT RUNS THE OIL OUT AND WITH THAT BEING SAID I NOW HAVE ENGINE DAMAGE. NOT TO MENTION THIS CAR HAS BEEN THE ABSOLUTE WORST. I PUT MY VISORS DOWN ONE TIME AND HAD TO TAKE THEM OFF BECAUSE THEY WOULDN'T GO BACK UP. THE POWER CONTROLS IN MY CAR DON'T WORK. I ALSO FOUND OUT TONIGHT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE GAS PEDAL IN THIS DEATH TRAP THAT HAPPENED BEFORE I OWNED IT THAT I WAS NEVER INFORMED OF BUT KNEW SOMETHING HAD TO BE WRONG WITH IT BECAUSE IT KEPT STICKING!! I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON DEALING WITH THIS...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE SPEED. THE CONTACT COSTED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL TUBE FRACTURED AND BURNED THE ENGINE AND WOULD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,300.

ENGINE IS CONSUMING QUARTS OF OIL (5-9 QTS) BETWEEN OIL CHANGES

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION IS A PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE USES THREE QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN 5,000 MILE SERVICE. TWO OIL CONSUMPTIONS TESTS WERE DONE. TOYOTA STATED NOT ELIGIBLE FOR WARRANTY. ....UPDATED 11/18/15 *BF ON MY THIRD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WHICH I HAD TO PAY FOR, IT HAD A POSITIVE RESULT. TOYOTA IS GOING TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR BECAUSE IT QUALIFIES. MAINLY BECAUSE IT USES 4 QUARTS OF OIL NOW BETWEEN CHANGES EVERY 5000 MILES NOW. THANKS JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW WHAT THE DEAL IS NOW. UPDATED 02/29/16. *JB

I AM CONCERNED WITH THE OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAD TWO TEST OUTCOME FAILED I HAVE STATED SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE IN DEC 2006 THAT CAR USED OIL. I THINK THAT I SHOULD BE COMPENSATED FOR THE NUMEROUS QUARTS OF OIL THAT HAVE BEEN WASTED DUE TO A FLAW IN THIS ENGINE TYPE. THE TIME TO REPAIR IS WAY TOO LONG. ON AVERAGE I HAVE TO ADD A QUART A WEEK THAT'S A LOT OF OIL SINCE 2007. THE PEOPLE AT TOYOTA NEED TO SPEED UP THE PROCESS TO HAVE THIS ISSUE FIXED.

MY CAR WAS BURNING MORE THAN 5 QUARTS IN LESS THAN 3K MILES BUT AFTER LONG TIME FINALLY TOYOTA HAS FIXED THE ISSUE. BUT THIS WAS HAPPENING FOR ME FROM 45K MILES ON MY CAR AROUND 2009 UNTIL NOW. MEAN WHILE SINCE THE ENGINE WAS BURNING WHICH CAUSED MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER TO BLOW OFF. THEY SHOULD REPLACE THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER TOO BECAUSE THIS IS CAUSED BY THE ENGINE OIL BURNING IN THE COMBUSTION CAMBER. FEW YEARS BACK THEY FIXED MY POWER WINDOW ON THE DRIVER SIDE BUT LAST 12- 18 MONTHS I AM EXPERIENCING AN ISSUE SOME TIMES THE WINDOW OPENS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BUT MOST OF THE TIME PASSENGER WOULD TRY TO OPEN BUT IT WONT OPEN. I BELIEVE ITS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WHICH MAY HAVE HAPPENED AFTER THEY FIXED ON THE DRIVER SIDE. IF ANY ACCIDENT HAPPENS THEN THE PASSENGER WONT BE ABLE TO GET OUT WHICH...

MY CAR WILL BURN THROU +2 QUARTS OF OIL BEFORE I WOULD REACH 1200 MILES HAVING TO CHANGE MY OIL EVERY 1200 MILE OR ADDING 2+ QUARTS . IF I FORGET TO ADD OR CHANGE OIL ENGINE WILL TICK LOUD AND I WOULD LOSE ACCELERATION POWER. I ONCE FORGOT TO ADD OIL AND TRYING TO PULL OUT IN TO TRAFFIC NOT REALIZING THE LOST OF POWER I ALMOST GOT T BONE .

AFTER DRIVING 3000 MILES I AM DOWN A QUART OF OIL. I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON THIS ISSUE AND WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK THEY TOLD ME TO RETURN AFTER 1000 MILES I RETURNED AFTER 1000 MILES AND HEY TOLD ME THERE IS NOTHING RONGWITH THE CAR. THE CAR IS STILL DOWN A QUART AFTER 3,000 MILE

I TOOK THIS VEHICLE TO THE DEALER (MORRISTOWN TOYOTA ON JUN 20,2015) TO CHECK WHY THE LIGHT ENGINE IS ON. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS ' TECH SCANNED FOR CODES AND FOUND PO137 OXYGEN SENSOR CIRCUIT LOW BANK 1 SENSOR 2' NOT SURE IF THIS IS NORMAL TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM FOR A CAR LIKE CAMRY. BESIDES, IT HAS SEVERAL OTHER PROBLEMS SINCE I BOUGHT. I HAVE WARRANTY AT THAT TIME, ALL THOSE WERE COVERED. I AM REALLY CONCERN THE QUALITY OF THIS MANUFACTURER. I AM BRINGING THIS ISSUE HERE TO SEE IF THIS IS A REAL ISSUE OR NOT AND OTHER SHOULD BE CONCERN ABOUT THIS.

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE OIL, IT BURNS A LOT OF OIL OR ENGINE MAY EXHIBIT ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION) AND THERE IS NO POWER AT THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER PLUG ON BOTH OF THEM. MY FIRST THOUGHT WAS THAT THE FUSE FOR IT MUST BE BLOWN. I CHECKED THE FUSE BOX UNDER THE HOOD, BUT THERE IS NOTHING BROKEN.

THE VEHICLE IT HAS BEEN BURN/USING TO MUCH OIL, AT LEAST 4-5 TIMES A WEEK I NEED TO ADD OIL. THE SECOND PROBLEM IS THE PHONE CAR CHARGER OUTLET AND THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER IT'S NOT WORKING, AND I TRIED TO CHECK THE SOURCE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE STEERING WHEEL ALL THE SOCKET, ALL OF THEM IS WORKING/NOT BROKEN. AND ALSO ON THE TAPE SCREEN, IT'S HAPPEND ONLY SOMETIMES, IT'S SUDDENLY THE SCREEN GOES BLANK AND AFTER I PUT THE PRESSURE BY PRESSING DOWN ON THE SCREEN IT COMES BACK TO NORMAL AGAIN. AND I JUST FIND OUT THAT TOYOTA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS CONSUMING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WOULD CONSUME A QUART OF OIL EVERY 750 - 950 MILES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION FOR AN UNKNOWN MANUFACTURER CAMPAIGN RELATED TO THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE PARTS NEEDED TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 117,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CHECK ENGINE AND OIL PRESSURE WARNING LIGHTS PREVIOUSLY ILLUMINATED.

ON 3/4/15 I HAD AN OIL CHANGE AT CONRAD'S. ON 3/11/15 I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO TOYOTA FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. AT THIS TIME THEY ASKED WHEN MY LAST OIL CHANGE WAS AND I STATED 3/4/15. THEY SAID THEY TYPICALLY LIKE TO PERFORM THE OIL CHANGE BEFORE THE TEST BUT THAT OIL CHANGE WAS RECENT ENOUGH TO USE. WHEN THEY CHECKED MY OIL THEY SAID MY CAR ARRIVED WITH NO OIL READING ON THE DIPSTICK AND THAT IT WAS MORE THAN ONE QUART LOW ON OIL. I EXPLAINED HOW COULD THAT BE I HAVE NO OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY OR ANYWHERE. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THEY WOULD NEED TO DO AN OIL CHANGE OR THEY COULDN'T DO THE TEST. I CALLED CONRAD'S THEY STATED THAT IS NOT TRUE AND IT'S THERE WORD AGAINST TOYOTA. I HAD TOYOTA PERFORM THE OIL CHANGE AND THEY ALSO SEALED THE ENGINE OFF...

MY CAR STARTED USING OIL AT 115,000-123,000 MILES. I TOOK IT IN 2-3 MONTHS AGO AND TOYOTA PERFORMED AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. MY CAR USED 1.6 QUARTS OF OIL DURING THAT TIME, IT DID NOT HAVE ANY EXTERNAL LEAKS WHEN THEY PERFORMED THIS TEST. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL AND THIS MUCH OIL CONSUMPTION IS NORMAL. USING THE MUCH OIL IS NOT NORMAL AND IT WAS NOT USING OIL BEFORE THE 115,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD SINCE IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL THAT IF I WANTED THE VALVE SEALS REPAIRED IT WOULD BE UNDER MY EXPENSE. THIS IS NOT A NEW COMPLAINT ABOUT THE 2007 CAMRY AND THE INTERNET HAS NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS HAVING EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND SOME WERE WORSE THAN MINE. TOYOTA SHOULD OWN UP TO THIS DEFECT AND FIX IT.
