2000 TOYOTA COROLLA BURNING EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL. I'M HAVING TO ADD A QUART EVERYTIME I PUT GAS IN. I DRIVE FROM DESTINATION TO DESTINATION FOR WORK AND HAVING TO OIL IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THE LIGHT DOES NOT COME ON UNTIL IT IS EMPTY.

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE ON OUR 2000 TOYOTA COROLLA. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND INDICATES NEEDING A NEW CATALYTIC CONVERTER. HOWEVER, THAT IS AN EFFECT OF THE CAUSE OF EXCESSIVE BURNING OF OIL. I ADD APPROX 1-2 QUARTS OF OIL EVERY 250-400 MILES. IF HIGHWAY DRIVING, I EASILY ADD 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 100 MILES OF DRIVING. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH 1ZZ-FE 1.8L ENGINES FROM 1998-2002 BASED ON NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE. SINCE THIS CONDITION DOES NOT MANIFEST ITSELF UNTIL OUT OF THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY, THIS WILL NEVER BE A WARRANTY OR RECALL ISSUE UNLESS TOYOTA ADMITS THERE WAS A DESIGN FLAW. *TR

I PURCHASED A USED 2000 TOYOTA COROLLA FROM A DEALERSHIP IN THE AREA IN APRIL 2013 - I FOUND THAT WHEN DRIVING IN EXCESS OF 65 MPH, THE CAR STARTED SHAKING AND CONTROLLING IT WAS DIFFICULT - IS THERE A POSSIBLE RECALL OF THIS YEAR/MAKE/MODEL THAT WAS NEVER FIXED? *TR

THE VEHICLE KEEPS BOGGING OUT. THE FUEL SYSTEM KEEPS FAILING AND THE STRUTS SOUND AND FEEL LIKE THEY ARE GOING TO COLLAPSE

IT APPEARS AS IF THE STEERING WHEEL IS NOT IN PROPER CONTROL AND VEHICLE SEEMS TO WANDER AT HIGHER SPEEDS. WHEN MAKING TURN, AT TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL TURN A LOT AND SOMETIMES IT WOULD TURN IN LOT LESSER I.E. I WOULD NOT HAVE PROPER JUDGMENT OF HOW MUCH VEHICLE WOULD TURN AND THIS BECOMES VERY MUCH EVIDENT WHEN MAKING TURN AT SLIGHTLY HIGHER SPEEDS THEN 30-35 MILES/HOUR.. I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING MY DEALER AND MY AUTO MECHANICS HAD SUGGESTED LIKE CHANGING THE TIRES TWICE , REPLACING ROTOR, BRAKE PADS, GETTING ALIGNMENT DONE ETC. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS REGARDING THIS COMPLAINT. *TR
