STICKY DASHBOARD WHERE IT IS DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF WINDOW DUE TO GLARE FOR A FEW YEAR NOW. I DON'T REMEMBER GETTING ANY NOTIFICATIONS FROM TOYOTA ABOUT THIS ISSUE.IT HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE OVER THE YEARS. THEY TOLD ME THERE IS NO RECOURSE AS THE WARRANTY ENDED AT THE END OF 2017. I HAVE MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THE TOYOTA SERVICE DEPARTMENTS WITH OTHER RECALLS INCLUDING THE OIL CONSUMPTION AND SUN VISORS WHERE THEY CLAIM IT ISN'T A PROBLEM. TOYOTA CASE # [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I PURCHASED A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY ALMOST TWO YEARS AGO WITH 100,000 THOUSAND MILES. THE CAR WAS RUNNING GREAT UNTIL NOW, IT HAS 120,000 MILES NOW AND IS STARTING TO BURN A LOT OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES, IT BURNS ABOUT ONE QUART EVERY 800 TO 1000 MILES.

THIS IS IN REGARDS TO THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FILED AGAINST TOYOTA FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION FOR 2006-2011 VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE 2AZ-FE ENGINE. I PURCHASED MY 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY SE IN FEBRUARY OF 2008. IN MARCH OF THIS YEAR AS I WAS DRIVING THE OIL LIGHT KEPT GOING ON AND I HAD JUST HAD AN OIL CHANGE NOT LONG BEFORE THIS HAPPENED. I STOPPED TO HAVE MY OIL CHECKED AND FOUND OUT THAT I HAD ALMOST NO OIL IN MY ENGINE. PUT THE OIL IN AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I BEGAN TO RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT TOYOTA KNOWINGLY SOLD THE VEHICLES WITH THE PISTON DEFECT. I CALLED TOYOTA AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WOULD NOT HONOR THE REPAIR DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS OVER THE 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY DATE. THE MILEAGE WAS UNDER 150,000 (112,000) AND I WAS 2 MONTHS PAST THE DATE AND THEY WILL NOT HONOR THE REPAIRS TO MY VEHICLE. I HAVE ATTACHED THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST INVOICE DONE BY A TOYOTA DEALER AND THE LETTER SENT TO TOYOTA. I CAN NOT AFFORD TO SPEND $3000 TO $5000 TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS ALSO LOST VALUE AND I COULD FIND MYSELF IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION IF THE ENGINE FAILS. I NEED TO KNOW MY OPTIONS. TOYOTA SHOULD FIX MY CAR AT NO CHARGE TO ME.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, I LOWERED MY VISOR TO LOOK IN MY MIRROR, ONCE I WAS DONE I TRIED TO RETURN MY VISOR TO ITS UP RIGHT POSITION AND IT WOULD NOT STAY. NOTHING LOOKS BROKEN BUT CLEARLY SOMETHING IS WRONG IF IT WONT STAY UP AND NOW IT IS IN MY LINE OF VISION FOR DRIVING. VERY DANGEROUS, IT BLOCKS MY LINE OF SIGHT, I CANNOT EVEN PUSH IT UP AGAINST THE WINDOW(YOU KNOW LIKE YOU DO WHEN IT IS SUNNY OUT) FOR IT DOESN'T STAY AND FALLS BACK DOWN BLOCKING MY ABILITY TO SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD.

MY CAR ENGINE IS BURNING IS BURNING OIL MORE THAN USUAL IT BURNS ABOUT 3,75 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 5000 MILES I WENT TO OURISMAN TOYOTA DEALER IN FAIRFAX, VA AND THEY REFUSE TO FIX IT . THIS IS A FRAUD BECAUSE IN TOYOTA MANUAL IT SAYS THAT THE CAR TAKES 4,5 QUARTS ONLY BUT NOW BECAUSE MY ENGINE IS BURNING OIL I HAVE TO BUY MORE OIL (3,75 QUARTS PER 5000 MILES IN ADDITION TO THE ORIGINAL AMOUNT)AND ADD IT TO MY ENGINE IN ORDER TO AVOID BLOWING UP MY ENGINE

I HAVE A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH A 2AZ-FE ENGINE THAT BEGAN USING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL AFTER ABOUT 120K MILES. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL TO NEED TO ADD OIL EVERY 1000 MILES OR SO. HOWEVER IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT TOYOTA ACKNOWLEDGED THIS ISSUE ON AUGUST 11, 2011 WITH TSB #0094-11.

I HAVE A 2008 TOYOTA CAMRY AND NOTICED SEVERAL MONTHS AGO THAT THE DASHBOARD STARTED TO HAVE A STICKY FEELING. I LIVE IN WEST PALM BEACH, FL AND WITHIN THE LAST FEW DAYS I NOTICED AN ARTICLE ON THE CHANNEL 5 NEWS STATION THAT HAD A REPORT ON THE MELTING DASH IN THESE CARS. AFTER READING SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER CAMRY DRIVERS, I KNOW I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A "RECALL" ISSUE WITH TOYOTA AND THEY NEED TO FIX IT! I'VE SEEN THE ESTIMATES OTHER DRIVERS HAVE RECEIVED AFTER SPEAKING WITH TOYOTA AND THEY SEEM TO CHARGE AROUND $2500 FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE DASHBOARD; AND IT'S NOT EVEN THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DRIVER! THIS IS A GROWING PROBLEM AND TOYOTA NEEDS TO START TAKING CARE OF IT NOW! I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER TOYOTA AGAIN, REGARDLESS OF THE HYPE OF THEIR EVERLASTING PRODUCTS. *JS

I WAS SLOWING TO A STOP AT A RED LIGHT. THE WARNING LIGHT CHECK VSC CAME ON. THE BRAKES WERE VERY WEAK AND DID NOT STOP THE CAR. I HAD TO ESCAPE ON TO THE SHOULDER AND HAVE THE CAR SLOW DOWN. *TR
