Two problems related to engine burning oil have been reported for the 2010 Toyota Corolla. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2010 Toyota Corolla based on all problems reported for the 2010 Corolla.
I change oil regularly every 5000 miles. At 187,775 miles changed oil and only 1. 25qt came out. Next oil change roughly 192,000 only 2qt came out. Oil capacity is around 4. 4 qt. No oil leaks so this engine is burning oil 2qt every 5000 miles.
Excessive oil consumption. My 2010 Corolla has suddenly started burning (not leaking) oil at the rate of 1 quart per every 1500 miles. I noticed this happening a few months ago and have been carefully watching it. My mechanic said it is most likely a defective engine or piston rings. Very costly to repair. I believe Toyota knowingly put these defective engines in the 2010 Corolla. They put the same engine in other Corollas up to 2009. Obviously in the 2010 also. Please look into this. I'm sure that I am not the only one with this issue. What are my options?.
