After the car engine odometer hit 70.000 the car started to burn oil more than normal. I took the car for an oil change and the car had very little oil. Since then i had to add 3 quarts of oil in between oil change at 78.000 and 2 quarts of oil in between oil change at 83.000 miles.

High oil consumption, i bought it from a dealership. Fix is 5000-7000$, toyota is not willing to fix since it surpassed the warranty time period. I am completely helpless. It drinks oil like and i cant see any signs on the ground.

Takata recall. My 2007 camry le is burning about 1qt/600 oil. The vehicle was in a parking lot when i checked it. Toyota admits this oil consumption issue as a manufacturing defect and still not issuing a recall. I have to add oil regularly between oil changes so that my car doesn't get stranded in the middle of the highway.

Oil light was flashing, so i took to my mechanic. He said the oil had used 3qts in less than a month (last oil change) and that the coolant was bone dry. It turns out its a head gasket/engine issue. He let me know he had multiple 2007 camrys with this issue, and that the dealership has an open 'campaign'? Or recall. I have left a message for the local toyota dealership

Started having issues with car overheating. Replaced water pump but check engine light came on and had the code for a misfire. Ended up being the head gasket. This car is well maintained. In researching this, i have found that several toyota owners have had head gasket issues and there was also a recall on the 4runner head gasket.

(1) abs module has an intermittent short. When it fails the speedometer stops working, abs and brake light on dash come on, temp gauge and tach fluctuate, and the a/c stops working. The short in module was diagnosed by a toyota dealer. I understand electrical components go bad but for it to effect the speedometer and a/c seems like a poor design. (2) on several occasions my engine oil light has come on. Apparently…
