    Burning oil at a high rate. I have to add oil every 500 miles or so. We have always followed a plan of changing the oil every 3 months or about 4000 miles. Since about feb 2016, this high consumption issue has existed on this vehicle. We've owned the vehicle since 2007.

    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…

    Toyota has a recall on a number of vehicles because of a piston ring design flaw. Last year they tested my 2007 camry and said it was ok. Actually, it burned 1 quart of oil (i just found out from customer care) but toyota says it must burn 1.5 quarts of oil to qualify. I was told that the car was ok. My oil light went on less than 2000 miles in to my last oil change. The car was 3 quarts low on oil! The dealership…

    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.
