"Excessive noise led to dealer recommending replacement"

"It had to be replaced in April 2015"

"Water pump replacement? Really? First Toyota ever I had to do this with a Toyota and have had over 200,000 miles on the others. More cheap parts that increased the cost of maintenance quite a bit"

"A/C compressor failed"

"no air condition had leak and heater core bad"

"Air not working. I have had to ad freon more than once. Toyota told me it would cost anywhere from $1200 to 2000 from them to isolate the problem but cannot give me an exact price. I have decided to continue to add Freon when needed"

In spite of recall coverage on dash, it still cost $1600 to get new AC condenser installed. Very expensive! If this were not a Toyota, it would not have been worth the money to get this repaired, but even with 200,000 miles on it I decided it was worth the money"

"Had a leak in evp. coil they replace the coil"

"Evaporator leaked and had to be replaced. Required removal and reinstallation of the entire dash to replace it"

"mold smell"

"Evaporator leaked, another high dollar item to repair $3000 I can understand seals , o-rings due to age leaking but not the evap canister"

"Dashboard melted -very sticky to the touch. Toyota refused to accept liability even though this was a known problem with other cars, so I had to have it replaced. Recently they recalled this particular item. But it cost me - too many problems w/ car"

"I live in Florida and park the vehicle outside in the driveway so the car is constantly exposed to the sun. So as a result the vinyl on the dashboard has melted and is cracked and peeling. all the windows in the car is tinted to try and eliminate sun"

"Don't exactly know how to describe. Paint coming off in little pieces, discoloring, etc. Looks awful"

"Either the clear coat or the Arctic White production line paint is subpar. My car no longer has a clear coat to keep it shiny and protected from the elements. Therefore, the white paint collects spots and stains, which are very difficult to remove. I pay extra for specialty shines at car services, but the prism shines do not adhere to the bare paint. It is difficult to make the car look clean and well kept"

"spots of rust of front of roof area , near winshield"

"bottom of driver and passenger doors show rust"

"My level of oil goes down every week and I routinely have to add oil to my car"

"Oil pan seal"

"Has always consumed oil from the day I got the car"

"Actually not an oil leak, but rather oil burn. For about the past 2-3 years it has been burning oil. It has been burning about 1 quart every 1,000 miles. Toyota sent a letter to Camry owners saying they would perform and "oil consumption test" if"

"Burns crazy amont of oil and only in the year 2015 i'm getting a tech bulletin saying car may have defects. I've spent countless dollars in repairs and adding oil because of this lemon. I can't even fathom buying another new Toyota ever"

"This car doesn't actually leak oil.... it uses it @ a high rate. Toyota just issued a ?recall? for it. If it's using enough they will do the extremely expensive repair!"

"Seal on the valves was leaking"

"I'm not sure it is a leak, but it is using oil. However, you didn't have a category for that. I am working with Toyota now and they are measuring USge. For me, it has used 2qts of oil in 5,000 miles"

"Every 800-1000 miles I have to put an additional quart of oil into the resevoir. I also have to purchase 10W-30 synthetic oil AND an separate additive like "shark" for each oil change just to make it 3,000 before needing another"

"Our Camry had excessive oil consumption issues. I got a warranty enhancement for this issue. The oil dipstick was bone dry when I checked it, and the low engine oil light never came on. Toyota also has a technical service bulletin (TSB) for this prob"

"It uses/burns oil, for which I recently received a "Warranty Enhancement" notice from Toyota"

"There is an existing Rear Main Seal Oil Leak. Mechanic advised not to repair because of cost of repair and likely will not fix or cause other problems. Constantly have to add oil"

"Had noticed excessive oil consumption with no visible oil under car. Received letter from Toyota recently explaining this is a common problem. Car currently being tested by Toyota to identify amount of oil consumed"

"Camry burns a lot of oil. I usually have to add several quarts of oil in between oil changes, which I generally have done every 3,000 miles. I constantly have to check oil on longer drives to make sure the oil level is not too low"

"Excessive oil usage"

"Engine burned too much oil, within one month I was down a full quart of oil. Brought to Toyota dealer as this was a recall"

"when i have an oil change every 5000 miles there is very little oil to be drained"

"I was noticing that the oil was disappearing but no oil leaks on ground or any smoke from exhaust. My mechanic told me that these Camrys suffer from oil rings that ollow the oil into the engine in small amounts, just need to continue checking the oil regularly"

"Our Camry kept burning oil. It was recalled for this problem and Toyota has repaired it now"

"oil pan leaking"

"oil low between oil changes. Recall test showed on the boarder line for acceptable so didn't make repairs/replacements. Not acceptable to us at 1/2+ quart low"

"started burning oil at 160000 miles on the engine"

"well known oil consumption because of piston rings faulty. Toyota sealed the engine at the dip stick, Also at the knob where you add the oil. I drive it for 1000 miles and the measured the oil consumption and said it was still in spec"

"Car seems to use excess oil. Had it checked under Warranty Program. Dealer indicated excess use was in acceptable range. I have owned many cars over the years and this oil use is beyond "normal". However ,the engine runs fine - I just have to be sure to check the oil often"

"This engine silently burns oil-we are careful to get the oil changed every 5000 miles, but have to check about 3000 miles-often it will be near empty, but no smoking, or visible leaks. Toyota did their oil consumption test and told us it wasn't happening. We beg to differ"

"Bearings in the alternator were bad"

"Failed alternator, water pump. Repair cost $800"

"I was experiencing what I thought was valve pinging. $1800 later local Toyota dealer says noise was from a broken flange on alternator and, by the way, your water pump is going bad. Now I suspect they changed the oil to eliminate the noise and perfor"

"After 230000km, the alternator was replaced on the car"

"Alternator went out. Didn't realize what was happening. Battery drained over the next 24-48 hours and then got stranded on side of highway. The repair was relatively easy to get done. Cost $400"

"The alternator went bad and I paid the local Toyota dealer to replace it. Also a power pack or coil pack on the engine went bad in the last year and I paid the local Toyota dealer to replace it"

"The Hybrid/electric battery had to be replaced. $6000 fee !!"

"The hybrid battery went out on this car at 103000 miles, a meer 3000 miles after the warranty expired. Toyota was gracious enough to pay 100% of the bill. I LOVE TOYOTA!"

"Ignition coils have slowly failed. I have replaced 4 of the 6"

"Engine light came on and Auto Zone said it was a bad coil. Had it checked at my favorite mechanic, and he too said bad coil, and gave the same number. Car had less than 30000 miles, so he said my dealer should give a discount. They did not! Dealer"

"VSC light and check engine light came on on dashboard. (#4 Ignition coil had failed)"

"Had 1 new coil installed at 87,000 miles. Car has bee great compared to other vehicles I have owned in the past 30 years"

"One Ignition Coil Failed"

"There are 6 coils in the engine. I've had three replaced, one at a time, since 2014--about once a year"

"Burnt out one of the coils -- on recommendation of mechanic replaced both"

"Seems to be a recurring problem"

"engine burns oil excessivly"

"defect engine - consuming oil. Toyota is replacing it for us. They really stand behind their cars. Very impressed"

"Toyota has yet to make repairs said oil consumption is not at the quart per 1000 miles level but its close guess I will have to wait till the problem gets worse or the engine burns up. They have extended warranty but will not admit problem exists"

"Engine rebuilt by Toyota because excessive oil consumption"

"Excessive oil consumption. 4 quarts in 5000 miles"

"Engine ha a manufacturing defect. It's burning 1 qt of oil every 1000 miles"

"Engine required rebuild, but was done at no cost because I had purchased extended warranty. Problem may have been cause by faulty oil pump"

"Never notified of engine issues. I bring the car to the same dealer for 100% service and no one ever said there was a recall on the engine"

"There was a manufacturing problem with the engine block resulting in need for engine replacement. I was told this problem only applied to 2007 model year"

"Engine burns excessive amounts of oil, 1 litre per 1000k, was told needs engine rebuild, replace clogged oil drain holes in pistons. major teardown and rebuild or total replacement. Started burning oil at 80k. Just gets worse. Problem is all over th"

"Toyota had a recall for excessive oil consumtion.. My car failed the oil consumption test. They rebuilt the engine under warranty"

""Known problem" with "excessive oil consumption". Between my regularly-scheduled, dealer ship oil changes, my oil was burned up and, because no one though to mention it to me and I didn't think to check, I had to replace the engine. I'll never buy a Toyota again"

"The engine had a Toyota initiated repair. It was determined that the engine in my car was using more oil than normal, which is a problem with some 2.4L Toyota engines. The dealer kept my car for over four months before finishing the job, I was provided with a loaner during that period. After this was performed the car has had a great number of problems: the engine trouble light turned on a few days after I got the car back, I returned to the dealer (Fort Bend Toyota) and was told that there was"

I had my personal mechanic called because he was aware of the warranty. I took In to the dealer, it did not pass the oil consumption test. Now why does the oil light not come on till it is 3 and 1/2 quart low. I would want it to come on when it is 1 quart low. What is up with the manufactures"

"Engine was using excessive amount of oil and Toyota had to replace engine block"

"Dealer characterized that complete engine destruction began with "catastrophic" water pump failure, which dumped all coolant in matter of seconds while traveling at freeway speed. Within next minute, entire engine seized up and was not repairable. Heads warped, pistons frozen in place. No salvage value. Entire Engine Replaced"

"engine blown, should not have happened, low mileage with lots of tlc"
