Toyota is recalling certain model year 2007-2009 Camry, Camry Hybrid, RAV4, Corolla, Corolla Matrix, Tundra, Sequoia, Highlander, Highlander Hybrid, Yaris, Scion xB, Scion xD and Pontiac Vibe vehicles. The power window master switch assemblies in some of these vehicles were built using a less precise process for lubricating the internal components of the switch assemblies. Irregularities in this lubrication process may cause the power window master switch assemblies to malfunction and overheat.
If the switch overheats, it may melt, possibly resulting in a fire.
Toyota will notify its owners, and dealers will inspect the switch and apply a special grease that inhibits heat build up or replace any switch damaged by the defect, free of charge. Toyota owners that experience a problem with a switch should not attempt to make repairs, but should contact their Toyota dealer or the Toyota Customer Experience Center at 1-800-331-4331. General Motors will contact the Pontiac Vibe owners affected by this recall and GM dealers will inspect and repair switches as necessary. Those owners may contact Pontiac Customer Care at 1-800-762-2737.

EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION TESTED BY DEALER AND APPARENTLY CLEARED RECURRED BUT NOW OUT OF EXTENDED WARRANTY
Engine, Mar 19, 2017
MY 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY CE WITH THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE IS CONSUMING ENGINE OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY UNDERGOING TOYOTA FACTORY "EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST", AND SHOWING LOW OIL ON DIPSTICK. ON LINE RESEARCH HAS INDICATED MANY OWNERS LEARNING EITHER THEIR DEALER OR TOYOTA, OR BOTH ARE HESITANT OR REFUSING TO PERFORM CORRECTIVE ACTION AT NO COST TO THE CURRENT OWNER. ON LINE RECOMMENDATION IS THAT THIS COMPLAINT SHOULD BE FILED WITH YOUR AGENCY ALONG WITH TWO OTHER ENTITIES INVOLVED IN MONITORING TOYOTA MOTOR COMPANY AND TOYOTA DEALER RESPONSE AND REMEDIAL ACTION.

OIL CONSUMPTION IS REALLY BAD. 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 200-300 MILES. NO VISIBLE OIL LEAKS UNDER CAR.
Engine, Mar 7, 2017
I PURCHASED THIS CAR USED A FEW YEARS AGO. IT HAS HAD A HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION THE ENTIRE TIME. IT HAS BEEN EXTREMELY AGGRAVATING AND COSTLY PUTTING OIL IN THE CAR WEEKLY. AS A SINGLE PARENT, I DIDN'T TAKE THE CAR TO BE FIXED BECAUSE OF FINANCIAL REASONS. I'M JUST FINDING OUT ABOUT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THE TIME HAS PASSED FOR ME TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THE WARRANTY. TOYOTA KNOWING ABOUT THE ISSUE MAKES IT EVEN WORSE. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL INSTEAD OF AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WAS CONSIDERING BUYING A NEW TOYOTA UNTIL I READ THIS. THIS MAKES ME DISTRUST TOYOTA BECAUSE OF THE UNDERHANDED WAY THEY'RE TREATING THEIR CUSTOMERS ABOUT AN ISSUE THEY KNEW ABOUT.

AFTER TOYOTA COMPLETING AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST THEY INFORMED US THEY ADD 1 QT OF OIL AND THEN MEASURE HOW LOW IT WAS AFTER THE ADDED OIL IN THE 1200 MILE TEST AND CONCLUDED THE 1/2QT LOW WAS NOT ENOUGH TO WARRANT REPAIRS TO THE ENGINE, KNOWING THEY HAVE A DEFECT IN THE ENGINE PISTON RINGS IT WAS ACTUALLY 1 1/2 QT LOW IN TOTAL AND THEY WONT FIX THE PROBLEM AND SAID IT COULD COST US IN THE AREA OF 3-4,000$

I DISCOVERED THAT TOYOTA HAS HAD ISSUES WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION IN CERTAIN MODEL YEARS. I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY XLE WHICH WAS LISTED AS ONE OF THE VEHICLES. THIS IS MY 4TH TOYOTA OF WHICH I HAVE PUT ON OVER 1 MILLION MILES BETWEEN THESE VEHICLES. NOW WITH THIS 2007 WHICH NOW HAS 211,000 MI. I FIND I AM HAVING TO ADD OIL EVERY 1000 MI. OR THE OIL LIGHT COMES ON. I CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 3000 MI. TOYOTA TOLD ME NOTHING CAN BE DONE BECAUSE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT WAS GIVEN EXPIRED IN OCT. 2016. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN JULY, 2015 WITH 146,000 MI. ON IT. I UNDERSTAND THAT A LETTER WAS SENT OUT IN MAY, 2015 REGARDING THIS MATTER. THAT APPARENTLY WENT TO THE PREVIOUS OWNER OR THE DEALERSHIP. NOW AFTER 4 TOYOTAS....1 MILLION MILES....THEY SAY NOTHING CAN BE DONE! I DON'T AGREE.

I HAVE A 2007 TOYOTA CAMRY WITH 155,000 MILES THAT EXCESSIVELY BURN OIL AT THE RATE OF 1 QUART PER 1000 MILES
Engine, Feb 16, 2017
I HAVE GONE ABOUT 2,000 MILES OF THE 5,000 MILES AN OIL CHANGE SHOULD LAST IN MY CAMRY. I CHECKED THE OIL BECAUSE WHEN DRIVING AND BRAKING HARD THE OIL LIGHT APPEARED BRIEFLY. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT APPEARED TO BE ALMOST EMPTY, I PUT 2 QUARTS OF OIL AND IT ONLY BROUGHT THE TOTAL LEVEL JUST ABOVE THE LOW LEVEL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK. THIS TELLS ME I COULD STAND TO BUY ANOTHER QUART AND PUT AT LEAST ANOTHER HALF QUART. I'VE KEPT UP WITH ALL OF THE MAINTENANCE WITH THIS CAR, HAVING JUST INSTALLED A NEW OIL PAN GASKET RECENTLY.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION
Engine, Jan 16, 2017
EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. TOYOTA WILL NOW OFFER ANY COVERAGE OR WARRANTY. ISSUE JUST STARTED SHOWING ITSELF THIS PAST FALL AND ONCE I LEARNED OF THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, TOYOTA SAID IT WAS PAST THEIR 10/31/16 DATE AND THE FACT THAT THE CARE WAS PAST THE 10 YEAR PIS DATE (BY 4 DAYS). THEY NOW SAY THIS IS A WEAR AND TEAR ISSUE. THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG HERE WITH THIS MANY PROBLEMS FOR MANY, MANY CAMRY OWNERS AND NO TYPE OF RECALL WAS EVER ISSUED. VERY FRUSTRATING AND VERY DISAPPOINTING IN TOYOTA. HAVE HAD NO OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS CAR OR WITH TOYOTA IN MY 10 YEARS OF OWNERSHIP. WILL NOW NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER TOYOTA AGAIN.

Engine, Dec 27, 2016
OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT THE DEALERSHIP IN MAY WHEN I STARTED NOTICING CONSUMPTION. I HAPPENED TO CHECK THE OIL A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER AND IT WASN'T EVEN TOUCHING THE STICK, SO I ADDED 2 QUARTS OF OIL AND TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND ASKED THEM IF THEY EVEN CHANGED THE OIL. THEY OF COURSE SAID YES AND WE KEPT NOTICING IT BURNING QUITE A BIT OF OIL. I TOOK IT TO A MY MECHANIC AND HE IMMEDIATELY KNEW TOYOTA HAD A RECALL ON THIS MODEL BURNING OIL AND ADVISED US TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO CONDUCT THEIR TEST. WE DID THE TEST WHICH WAS DRIVE IT 1200 MILES AND BRING IT BACK AND OF COURSE THEY SAID IT ONLY BURNT A LITTLE OVER A HALF OF A QUART. I HAVE BEEN PUTTING OIL IN THIS CAR MOST OF THE SUMMER SOMETIMES LESS THAN 1200 MILES WELL OVER A QUART. I HAVE READ SEVERAL BLOGS AND SEE WHERE TOYOTA HAS BEEN SUED OVER THIS ISSUE. I JUST WANT MY CAR FIXED. THANK YOU *TR
