Toyota Avalon 2005 model oil line failure causing oil to spill out into the engine compartment and onto the tires, brakes and roadway.
On Wednesday, April 8th noticed that my car was leaking oil so I went to the service station and filled it with two quarts of oil. I realized there was a serious problem so I put another two quarts in my car and contacted a Toyota dealership in lancaster pennsylvania because I was out of town. They informed me that my oil cooling line also known as the vvti line had ruptured and Toyota has a new replacement part that is on national back order. Lancaster Toyota didn't have the new replacement part however they could put the same defective part that is a known problem back on my car at a cost of $307. 09 which would allow me to get home. After getting my car from PA I drove it directly to Toyota of bowie and asked them to check my engine for damage. They said he didn't see any damage to my engine. I picked my car up and drove it approximately 3 miles away from Toyota of bowie put the car in park & smelled something burning and heard the engine knocking. I lifted the hood and saw oil spurting out and dripping everywhere. . The oil cooling line (vvti line part no. 1570731012) had ruptured again! I had the car towed back to Toyota of bowie and as of today 4/28 it is still there. No one will claim responsibility for this defect. Not Toyota headquarters, or lancaster Toyota.

On Wednesday, April 8th I was in the state of new jersey and noticed that my car was leaking oil so I went to the service station and filled it with two quarts of oil. I was on my way home to maryland and had to stop for gas in pennsylvania so I checked the oil level in my car and found that it was very low. At this point I realized there was a serious problem so I put another two quarts in my car and contacted lancaster Toyota in lancaster pennsylvania (717-569-7373). I explained my situation to them and they told me to bring my car in for service. My service advisors name at lancaster Toyota was ms. Sharon eshelman. Ms. Eshelman informed me that my oil cooling line also known as the vvti line had ruptured and Toyota has a new replacement part that is on national back order. Lancaster Toyota didn't have the new replacement part however they could put the same defective part that is a known problem back on my car at a cost of $307. 09 which would allow me to get home. I picked my car up from lancaster Toyota Thursday, April 9th and drove it to Toyota of bowie to check my engine for damage. On Friday they called and said he didnt see any damage to my engine and pick the car up. I drove it directly to my sons doctors office in crofton, MD approximately 3 miles away from Toyota of bowie. Put the car in park and smelled something burning and heard the engine knocking. I lifted the hood and saw oil spurting out and dripping everywhere, the oil cooling line (vvti line part no. 1570731012) had ruptured again! I called Toyota and informed them of the events and they told me to tow the car back to them. Toyota headquarters in California should recall this part because it is not safe. This part can rupture at any point and time and the oil light does not come on. . Read more...
I have a 2005 Toyota Avalon. This week the front and back floors are drenched in water under the carpets. The technician to clean the car noted that there was black mold under the carpets. The belief is that the ac is not draining properly. What and how can this be resolved ASAP.
While driving engine light illuminates on dashboard. Sludge like substance in oil makes vehicle inoperable. Also, water pump went out, cause known. Please provide any further information, and vehicle indentification number.
