CAR CONSUMPTION MORE OIL IT HAVE ONLY 70000 MILEAGE AND SEAT BELT GETTING STUCK SHOULD BE ENGINE AND SEAT BELT SAFETY ISSUE

RECALL CSJ WAS PERFORMED 08/01/14. REAR TOE-IN SET AT 0.10. ON 08/28/19 DEALER FOUND REAR TOE AT 0.08 LEFT AND 0.25 RIGHT AND REPORTED IT AS "FAILED". THEN INFORMED US THAT ALIGNMENT CAN'T BE CORRECTED DUE TO RECALL CSJ AND WE SHOULD DRIVE THE VEHICLE "AS IS' OR PAY FOR REPLACEMENT REAR TIE RODS. RECALL GOV WAS NOT PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE HAS INCREASED STEERING SENSITIVITY..

WE DROPPED OFF OUR 08 RAV 4 AT THE DEALER DUE TO (FAULTY RECALL REAR TIE ROD REPAIRS DONE IN 2013.) I PUT A NEW SET OF EXPENSIVE TIRES. NOW AT APPROX 34,000 MILES NOW I NOTICES EXTREME WEARING PREMATURELY WITH POSSIBLE SAFETY CONCERNS. OUR REPAIR SHOP SAID THE (REAR SUSPENSION TIE RODS) CAN NOT BE ADJUSTED DUE TO TOYOTA'S (RECALL REAR TIE RODS EPOXY GLUE!) THIS MEANS WHEEL ALIGNMENT CAN NOT BE PROPERLY. HOWEVER, WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS OR THE HIGHWAY YOU HEARD RUMBLING TIRE NOISES.
