CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2009 Camry used to be adorned with our “Seal of Pretty Good†but that was before an alarming number of complaints started rolling in for excessive oil consumption.
Owners are being caught off-guard with how quickly their cars are running out of oil. No leaks, no spills, just 1 quart of vanishing oil in as little as 1,200 miles. Toyota maintains this is “normal†for the 2AZ-FE engine, even though they issued a TSB for the problem in August of 2011.
My car starting vibrating on the left side last week. Toyota South Atlanta told me my right axle was about to break off. So I got a brand new one and I was told my left was okay for now. Yesterday my car started vibrating again and it felt like the car was pulling or jerking. I took it back to the dealer and they said I need a new transmission, I said at only 133,145. I feel like a car transmission going out at 133,145 miles is crazy. I feel the transmission had to have been faulty, I had a 2006 Toyota Matrix that last over 250,000 miles. My engine lite is not on but I just new something wasn't right. The dealer suggested taking it to Aamco because Toyota cost 5,000 to replace transmission. Does anyone have any suggestions other than taking it to a transmission shop. Thank You
