2011 Toyota Camry

I got my 150,000 tune, which included a computer refresh and alignment as well...well I asked for a replacement battery for my key fog and they gave a me a hard time about the battery...I just the need the battery changed on it and they said they would take care of it free of charge...when I got there they tried charging me $165 to change the battery in my key fog...which uses a round standard battery...and then they threaten me to take out the battery and then put the old one back in if I didn't comply. I ask to speak to the manager and he went ahead and did it for me like he originally had said....my dashboard after the computer refresh and key battery change my dashboard lights up with errors messages. And the car glitches and starts and shuts off when it wants to...and my alinement I got just before closing time and they reassuried me that it was good to go...and when I started driving it off the lot...it have another tire alignment on the opposite side of the car now....I've called them multiple times over and over and I've never heard anything back from them....

DASHBOARD HAS BECOME SHINY AND EXTREMELY STICKY. ON SUNNY DAYS OR AT KNIGHT LIGHT CAN REFLECT OFF THE DASHBOARD INTO THE WINDSHIELD. THIS CAUSES AN INTENSE GLARE MAKING IT EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO SEE FORWARD. THIS EFFECT CAN BE SEEN STATIONARY OR IN MOTION IN CITIES OR ON THE HIGHWAY. TOYOTA ISSUED AN ENHANCED WARRANTY HOWEVER MANY OLDER CARS ARE NO LONGER COVERED AND THE ISSUES STILL PERSIST. I PURCHASED MY CAR USED FROM A THIRD PARTY AND WAS NEVER INFORMED ABOUT THE ENHANCED WARRANTY THAT COVERED THIS ISSUE. WHEN I LEARNED THAT THIS WARRANTY EXISTED IT WAS TOO LATE AND MAR CAR WAS NO LONGER COVERED.

THE CAR IT'S HARD TO TURN NOW, IT MAKE NOISE WHEN I ACCELERATE, LIKING GREASE-OIL ON THE BALL JOINTS. IT SOUNDS LIKE THE PROBLEM WITH THE RECALL , BUT MY CAR IS 2-11.. A MONTH BEFORE THE RECALL ( THAT STARTS IN 3 -11).. SO I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP, AND THEY DIDN'T WANTED TO HELP ME WITH THAT. THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME LIKE $800. WHAT CAN I DO??

MY CAMRY IS USING EXCESSIVE OIL AND IT HAS THE SAME ENGINE NUMBER INCLUDED IN ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS. I TOOK MY CAR IN TO HAVE THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST DONE. NO LEAKS WERE FOUND, OIL CHANGE WAS DONE AND I WAS TOLD TO COME BACK IN A WEEK. THE FIRST CHECK UP OIL WAS ADDED BY THE TECHNICIAN (II WAS NOT TOLD HOW MUCH) AND I WAS ASKED TO RETURN IN 1000 MILES. I WAS TOLD TO ADD OIL IF NEEDED. WHEN I RETURNED FOR THIS CHECK, UP, I LET THEM KNOW THAT I HAD TO ADD A QUART OF OIL BETWEEN THE CHECK UPS. WHEN THE CSR RETURNED HE SAID WE WERE ALL SET. THE AMOUNT OF OIL BEING CONSUMED WAS "WITHIN THE PARAMETERS ". I KNOW THIS IS NOT CORRECT! THEY SAY NOTHING IS TO BE DONE. I CAN HEAR THE TAPPING NOISES FROM THE PISTONS IN MY ENGINE ABOUT EVERY 3 DAYS OF DRIVING BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF OIL. MY CAR LOOSES POWER AND STARTS ACTING SLUGGISH ETC...THIS IS DAMAGING MY VEHICLE! I HAVE TAKEN EXCELLENT CARE OF MY CAR. I HOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. OIL CHANGED ON TIME ALONG WITH ALL SUGGESTED MAINTENANCE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THESE COMPLAINTS ON THIS TOYOTA' ENGINE. BY 2011 THIS PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN CORRECTED. NOW I SEE THAT SOME OF THE CARS HAVE BEEN FIXED WHILE OTHERS HAVE NOT BEEN. IF ALL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, TOYOTA NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE. MY CAR'S VALUE IS LOWER DUE TO THIS PROBLEM AND I WILL HAVE TO KEEP ADDING 3-4 QUARTS OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES (@ $13 00 A QUART) AS I CANNOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE ANOTHER AT THIS TIME.
