My 2007 Toyota Rav4, 113,000 miles, is experiencing serious excessive oil consumption. Toyota first acknowledged this vehicle had an excessive oil consumption problem in 2011 when it issued a technical service bulletin (t-sb-0094-11) . I took the car in to a Toyota dealership and it was supposedly repaired. In 2014, Toyota was then the subject of a class action lawsuit by Toyota owners who alleged continuing problems with excessive oil consumption. Toyota entered into a settlement. In 2015, Toyota offered an extended warranty repairs. I took my car in to the dealership and it was supposedly "repaired. " in recent months, the problem has gotten much worse. At one point, I heard odd engine noises. I was alarmed to see the oil level was so low that it didn't register, despite the fact I had gotten an oil change a few weeks earlier. I called Toyota on 9/10/2018 and I was informed that the extended warranty has expired and that I am responsible for paying to fix the car that Toyota twice failed to fix. To no avail, I told angie, at Toyota's national consumer affairs division, that. Toyota's supposed "fixes" were insufficient and did not work. She said that's my problem. As a result, I have a car that is unsafe. Despite frequent oil changes, the engine can run out of oil and seize up at any time, leaving me (a 67-year-old woman) stranded in the desert in 120 degree temperatures or on the roadway in the middle of the night. Excessive oil consumption has been a common complaint among owners of the owners of 2007 Toyota rav 4 vehicle for years. Toyota clearly has failed to do what it admits it was obligated to do and promised to do - fix it. Why hasn't the government already stepped in to require Toyota to immediately repair the affected vehicles? individual consumers have no power to make multi-national corporations respect their rights and the law.

About 1 year after I purchased my car brand new off of the lot I started to notice my brakes starting to rub and squeak. If I was going down hill the front of my car would shake. It was terrifying. I took it to the maita Toyota delarship in sacramento. They told me nothing is wrong my pads are still good. I begged them to fix them they replaced my front rotors and break pads. This dealership also performed a engine cleaning and multiple other things they said my car needed at that time running me 795$ this being on July 11th 2018. Then today sept 6th 2018. My starter is out my car no longer starts. When you turn the key all of the inside lights come on and all you hear is a clicking sound. Mind you I also had a chip in my windshield when I took my car in for inspection in July and they placed green check mark's on everything including my windshield being free from chips. I now question the integrity of this dealerships service department. Do they truly inspect and do the work on your car? because from where I am seeing this at sitting here with a year old car in my parking lot currently not driveable I begin to wonder if they do. I should not be having these types of problems with a 2017 Toyota car that was purchased brand new.

Check engine light and vehicle stability light are on, I have on and off smelled the sulfur smell. Also, have a problem with the cruise control going out of control, around sharp corners where I have to slam on brakes to disengage to control the vehicle as it will not stop acceleration, it increases acceleration.
