2007 Scion Tc

When I bought this car, there was a couple recalls within 5 years of owning. One was fixed. The second was an oil consumption issue that my car passed by 100 miles and I was told it would not be covered. For the last few years the oil consumption has gotten worse. I have to put oil in the car when the light comes on, which is anywhere between 1k and 2k miles. As I'm driving, it can smell of burning, or start shaking, etc.

CAR DRINKING OIL, PISTON RING FINALLY DROPPED. I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR STARTED A ROUGH IDLE THEN STARTED KNOCKING SO I PULLED OVER. THEY'RE RUNNING TESTS NOW BUT I'M NO DUMMY, THIS IS A PISTON ISSUE. I BROUGHT MY CAR IN DURING THE MANUFACTURER SUGGESTED WINDOW TO GET THIS LOOKED AT ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AND THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WAS ASYMPTOMATIC DESPITE ME EXPLAINING THAT IT WAS DRINKING EXCESSIVE OIL. IF MY CAR ENGINE IS RUINED BECAUSE OF THIS TOYOTA WILL BE PAYING FOR MY NEW MOTOR OR ONE OF THEIR 2 DEALERSHIPS THAT KEPT INSISTING I WAS CRAZY WILL BE PAYING FOR THAT NEW MOTOR. I'VE HAD THE CAR SINCE IT WAS BRAND NEW WITH ALL THE SERVICE RECORDS TO PROVE THAT THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN.

THE ENGINE IN THIS CAR WHICH IS THE 2AZ-FE HAS DEFECTIVE PISTON RINGS WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO BURN AN INSANELY AMOUNT OF OIL. I LITERALLY HAVE TO ADD AT LEAST A QUART OF OIL A WEEK AND I BEEN DOING SO TWO YEARS ALREADY. I BELIEVE THAT'S NOT NORMAL AT ALL. CONTACTED TOYOTA TO NOTIFY THEM ABOUT THE ISSUE, AND CLAIMED THAT 'VEHICLE WAS OUT OF THE 10 YEAR OR 150,000 MILE WARRANTY'. I'M SO DISAPPOINTED AT TOYOTA FOR THAT. THEY ALSO HAD A PERIOD IN WHICH YOU COULD TAKE YOUR VEHICLE, BUT FAILED TO NOTIFY THEIR CUSTOMERS.

MY TRUNK RELEASE BROKE RECENTLY (1/25/19) AS I WAS ATTEMPTING TO OPEN THE TRUNK. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD TOYOTA WAS AWARE OF DEFECTIVE PART AND HAD OFFERED A WARRANTY ENHANCEMENT ON THE TRUNK RELEASE BUT IT EXPIRED IN 2015. I RECEIVED NO NOTIFICATION. CALLED TOYOTA TODAY AND WAS TOLD THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME, EITHER. WAS GIVEN CASE #1902062093. IF PART WAS DEFECTIVE AND THEY WERE AWARE OF IT I SHOULDN'T BE EXPECTED TO PAY $666.90 FOR REPLACEMENT JUST BECAUSE MY TRUNK RELEASE DIDN'T BREAK SOONER. I HAVE ALWAYS HAD ISSUES WITH THE TRUNK AS IT DIDN'T OPEN CONSISTENTLY. IF I HAD RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION FROM TOYOTA IN 2013 AS THIS WAS APPARENTLY WHEN NOTICES WERE SENT OUT, I CERTAINLY WOULD HAVE HAD IT REPLACED. IF TOYOTA IS AWARE OF A DEFECTIVE PART, NO TIME LIMIT SHOULD EXIST TO HAVE IT REPLACED, ESPECIALLY IF THE CURRENT OWNER IS ALSO THE ORIGINAL OWNER. THE TRUNK RELEASE WAS DANGLING BY THE WIRES, AND IS BEING HELD IN PLACE WITH SEVERAL INDUSTRIAL STRENGTH MAGNETS. OBVIOUSLY I AM UNABLE TO ACCESS THE TRUNK UNTIL I SHELL OUT AN EXORBITANT AMOUNT OF CASH TO FIX IT. I REALIZE THIS ISSUE ISN'T AS SERIOUS AS BRAKES, TIRES, ETC BUT I FEEL TOYOTA HAS AN OBLIGATION TO MAKE GOOD ON DEFECTIVE PARTS. THE TRUNK RELEASE IS A PLASTIC PART ON AN OTHERWISE ALL METAL CAR WHICH MAKES NO SENSE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

HI ALL, IAM THE OWNER OF SCION TC 2007 SINCE 2015 AND USING THIS VEHICLE TO COMMUTE TO WORK AND HOME. I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING MASSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL CONSUMPTION RIGHT AFTER I BOUGHT THE CAR. I HAVE TO PUT 1 OR 2 QUART OF SYNTHETIC OIL AFTER EVERY 1500 MILES OR SO, IT COST ME ALOT MORE THAN AVERAGE. PLEASE HELP ME REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THANKS AND REGARDS . ALI

MY 2007 TC HAS A VERY LARGE OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM TO THE POINT OF BETWEEN OIL CHANGES I AM PUTTING IN ABOUT 1.5 QUARTS TO 2 QUARTS. THE VEHICLE NEVER HAS ANY ONBOARD WARNINGS EITHER I DON'T GET A OIL LIGHT OR LOW OIL LIGHT. IT IS SO BAD THAT I HAVE TO CHECK MY OIL DAILY JUST TO MAKE SURE MY ENGINE ISNT GOING TO BLOW AND USUALLY END UP ADDING OIL ONCE TO TWICE A WEEK. I BOUGHT THE CAR WHEN THERE WAS A SERVICE MAINTENANCE ON THE TC FOR THE OIL CONSUMPTION AND THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABOUT IT HAVING IT AND I NEVER HEARD ANYTHING ABOUT IT UNTIL AFTER IT WAS OVER I FEEL AS SCION OR TOYOTA SHOULD HAVE TO FIX THE PROBLEM FOR EVERY SCION.
