Toyota and Scion Engine Oil Consumption – Class Action Lawsuit
Phase: Current
On March 31, 2014, Chimicles & Tikellis filed a class action lawsuit in the
Northern District of California on behalf of Toyota and Scion owners and
lessees experiencing engine oil consumption. The case was filed on behalf of
Toyota and Scion vehicle owners and lessees with defective 2AZ-FE engines
in the following model years (“MY”):
MY 2007-2011 Toyota Camry HV
MY 2007-2009 Toyota Camry
MY 2009 Toyota Corolla
MY 2009 Toyota Matrix
MY 2006-2008 Toyota RAV4
MY 2007-2008 Toyota Solara
MY 2007-2009 Scion tC
MY 2008-2009 Scion xB
The lawsuit alleges that these vehicles may contain defective pistons and/or
piston rings in the engine causing excessive oil consumption. This design
defect may be denied warranty coverage by the manufacturer and result in
some owners having to pay for costly repairs to the engine. Toyota may even
relay to customers that the excessive oil consumption is considered normal.

LAW FIRM INVESTIGATES TOYOTA EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION COMPLAINTS
Possible class-action lawsuit after complaints of excessive oil consumption
in Toyota vehicles.

Law Firm Investigates Toyota Excessive Oil Consumption Complaints
February 27, 2014 — The law firm of Chimicles & Tikellis is investigating a
possible class-action lawsuit against Toyota after complaints of excessive
oil consumption in certain vehicles.
The vehicles include the 2007-2011 Toyota Camry Hybrid; 2007-2009 Toyota
Camry; 2009 Toyota Corolla; 2009 Toyota Matrix; 2006-2008 Toyota RAV4; 2007-
2008 Toyota Solara; 2007-2009 Scion tC; and the 2008-2009 Scion xB.
A Defective Design?
Chimicles & Tikellis say the vehicles might contain defective piston rings
in the engine. They are investigating if the alleged design defect has
caused owners to spend thousands of dollars to fix a problem that should
have been covered under warranty.
Toyota issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) in 2011 informing dealers
of repair procedures for owners who complain about excessive oil consumption
. Toyota said some 2006-2011 vehicles equipped with the 2AZ-FE engine may
experience the problem.
To minimize oil consumption, Toyota changed the piston assembly and provided
mechanics with updated repair procedures.
Vehicles with the 2AZ Engine Covered in the TSB
2007 – 2011 Camry Hybrid
2007 – 2009 Camry
2009 Corolla
2009 Matrix
2006 – 2008 RAV4
2007 – 2008 Solara
Unlike a recall, a TSB is essentially updated repair procedures for
mechanics. An automaker does not have to pay for repairs if they determine
the problem is outside the warranty limitations, and unlike recalls, the
owner of the affected vehicle is not required to be notified of the issue.
Additionally, a recall wouldn't be issued for a problem like this because
excessive oil consumption isn't considered a safety defect.
On the 2AZ engines, Toyota considers oil consumption to be normal at one
quart of oil used per 1,200 miles or less of "normal driving."
Frustrated Owners
CarComplaints.com has heard from many owners of the affected vehicles about
the cost associated with fixing the problem, sometimes as high as $6000. The
2007 Toyota Camry seems to be the worst.
"Bought 07 Camry SE with 4 cyl engine new in fall of 2006. After 90k I
decided to start changing oil myself with Mobil 1 oil. Noticed that car was
burning oil and mentioned to service advisor on last 3 service appointments.
Was told this was 'normal'. Last week wife was driving on freeway and
check engine light flashed. Got home and checked oil, it was almost a full
quart low when I just topped it off 6 days earlier. Took to Toyota dealer,
long story short they quoted me $6390 for engine replacement." - 2007 Toyota
Camry owner.

Matrix, RAV4, Scion tC, Scion xB or Solara, contact Chimicles & Tikellis
