What owners wrote
Tl*the contact owns a 2006 toyota camry. The contact stated that there was a fire under the hood of the vehicle while it was parked in the garage. The fire department extinguished the fire. The manufacturer was notified. The vehicle has not been inspected to determine the cause of the failure. The failure and current mileages were 30,000.
My car was tested and qualified for an engine internal rebuild due to excessive engine oil consumption. It's been a year and the parts still have not been delivered to the dealer. Meanwhile I have to fill up the oil 3+ times in-between every oil change which is costing me the equivalent of an additional oil change for every oil change (approximately $30 extra every oil change).
