2009 TOYOTA CAMRY Complaints

STARTING IN 2013 I WAS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH OIL USAGE. OF COURSE I WAS TOLD IT WAS A RANDOM ISSUE AND NOT HAPPENING TO OTHER VEHICLES. MY ENGINE BLOW IN JAN 2014. I HAD TO PAY TO REPLACE IT BECAUSE IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY. AROUND AUGUST OF 2015 I GET A LETTER ABOUT THE OIL CONSUMPTION. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER FOR THE TEST, OF COURSE MY ENGINE FAILED THE TEST. WE SCHEDULED TO HAVE THE PARTS REPLACE IN SEPT 2015. THE WORK WAS COMPLETED AND IT HAD A ENGINE NOISE WHICH I WAS TOLD WAS NORMAL. IN FEB 2016 MY ENGINE BLEW AGAIN !! I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THEY DID NOTHING WRONG !! HOW ?? IT WAS FINE, JUST USING OIL UP UNTIL THEY TOOK IT APART AND FIXED THE PROBLEM !! NOW THEY REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE IT WAS NOT THE ORIGINAL MOTOR !! BUT I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE ORIGINAL MOTOR AND THEY DID NOTHING THEN EITHER !! SO I HAVE A CAR SITTING IN STORAGE THAT CANT BE DRIVEN AND THEY WANT TO NOTHING !!

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME MY CHECK ABS SYSTEM HAS COME ON. THE FIRST TIME THE BRAKES WERE VERY HARD TO WORK AND WOULD HARDLY STOP AND GRABBED. THIS WAS FOUND TO BE A BROKEN WIRE IN IN THE REAR OF THE CAR. NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN AND THIS TIME THEY SAY IT IS THE REAR HARNESS THAT IS BAD AND IT IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. MOST OF THE 79 COMPLAINTS ARE FOR THESE PROBLEMS AND THERE IS YET TO BE A RECALL. THIS IS NUTS! DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO GET KILLED BEFORE THE NHTSA DOES ANYTHING. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, ITS THE BRAKES!!! .

FRONT SPRING COILS BREAKING - RIGHT FRONT BROKE WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN I TOOK IT IN THEY TOLD ME THE LEFT FRONT WAS ALSO BROKEN! COST ME 500.00 TO FIX BOTH!
