Uses too much oil between oil change. 1quart low at 2000 miles. Should not burn this much oil. I have researched other vehicles having this same issue and this needs to be fixed. I checked Toyota website but it doesn’t show a recall for this car and it is have an issue that needs to be corrected. I scheduled an appointment for Jan 8th and hope they can get it fixed. But after reading what others have experienced for the same reason it will be more money out of my pocket due to Toyota not following through with their manufacturing mistakes. We shall see I guess.

I HAVE NEWISH WHEELS AND TIRES. LAST YEAR I TOOK MY CAR INTO LES SCHAWB TO GET AN ALIGNMENT DONE ON MY CAR THINKING THAT IS WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS. THE GUY AFTERWARDS TOLD ME HE FIXED IT AS WELL AS HE COULD BUT WONDERED IF I HAD HIT SOMETHING IN THE BACK AND THAT'S ALL HE TOLD ME. MY STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FOURTH RAPIDLY WHEN I AM COMING TO A STOP. MY CAR CAN NOT DRIVE STRAIGHT AT ALL EITHER WHILE I'M ON THE RODE. IT WILL PULL TO THE LEFT SO I TURN IT THE OPPOSITE WAY JUST A TINY BIT AND IT PULLS MY CAR THE OTHER WAY VERY HARD AND IT IS VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS TO DRIVE.

MY TC HAS VERY HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION. STARTING DAY ONE FROM OIL CHANGE, I HAVE TO ADD AT LEAST 2 QUARTS OF OIL TO ENGINE DURING THE 5000 MILES OIL CHANGE. THIS CAR IS VERY HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION, I BROUGHT TO DEALER AND HAVE IT TESTED TWICE, BUT DEALER SAID NOT QUALIFIED. FIRST TEST WAS 11-09-15, SECOND TEST WAS 07-28-17. MY CAR HAS NO LEAKING OIL, AND ITS ODOMETER 65K CURRENTLY.
