Engine Burning Oil Problems of Lexus GS

Oil consumption, I have to add 2 quarts every 1300 miles.

Because of the design, the rings stick causing oil consumption and engine wear. It smokes when driven. This affects these vehicles approximately years 06 - 11. They revamped the engine after 11 to fix the problem. They should repair our engines.

Low oil light came on 1000 miles after oil change at Lexus dealership. Car was low 2. 5 quarts of oil. Blue grey smoke was coming out of the car during acceleration and car smelled like poison inside very unsafe. Car has been dealer maintained for everything. Car was certified pre owned as well. At 100,000 miles oil consumption test was done and was in fact proved to be burning oil. Car is burning way too much oil. I've had 4 other vehicles none have burned oil. This is unacceptable and I might have to buy a new engine soon. Please help me out. Thank you.

This car burns an insane amount of oil and turns black in color. I have no oil leak but have to put about a quart in weekly.

The engine has been burn oil rapidly. I went for an oil change and the tech informed me that the engine is down to 2 quartz of engine oil. I have kept the car on scheduled maintenance. One of the customer as the dealer ship that I had a conversation stated that he had a similar problem where Lexus can't figure out the problem until the engine exploded. I went online to check and it seems Lexus Gs model from 2006-2011 have similar problems. Lexus refused to acknowledged the problem because of the cost for the fix. It is irresponsible for Lexus not to recall the car because the cost.

I took my car into the dealer twice for the oil consumption issues during the period they offered it. I was turned away both times and only after the "repair period" ended was I informed that there was one to begin with. I've read about multiple people having the recall performed who had the same problem as me. My care now needs two to three quarts of oil per month and I was screwed out of my repair. Now we have the airbag light. I've read quite a few things online about temporarily repairing this airbag harness myself but thats not a solution to the actual problem. My children are in this vehicle daily and not having a fully functional airbag system is not at all safe.

After having the camshaft timing gear replaced due to the recall, I noticed my car was burning a lot of oil but there was no leak. My car would be out of oil 1,800 mile prior to me next oil change and I would need to add 2 quarts of oil to my car. When I brought the car in to be looked at, I was told that there was oil seepage in the timing chain area which is a $3,500 repair. The more I research, the more I'm finding that people are stating this is related to the recall performed.

Low engine oil condition with no evidence of leaks. Excessive oil burning and having to constantly check and add several times between regularly scheduled oil changes. Often observed by checking before warning indication. This could lead to major engine failure including sudden lockup,stall, overheating, thrown rods, etc. There is recent evidence and admission from Lexus that the piston rings were defective upon manufacture.
