THIS ENGINE IS UNDER WARRANTY. I PROVIDED MORE THAN THE NUMBER OF RECEIPTS REQUESTED BY THE DEALERSHIP. TOYOTA SAYS THE OIL CHANGE OUTLETS MUST NOT HAVE ACTUALLY CHANGED THE OIL. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AS USED WITH 153 MILES ON IT. IT WAS PURCHASED AT BALE HONDA IN LITTLE ROCK. BALE TOYOTA HAD USED IT AS A DEMONSTRATOR. BALE TOYOTA IS IN CONWAY, AR WHICH IS 35 MILES AWAY. LANDERS TOYOTA IS THE ONLY TOYOTA SERVICE CENTER IN LITTLE ROCK. AFTER I PROVIDED THEM WITH ALL THE RECORDS REQUESTED, THEY STILL MAINTAIN THAT TOO FEW OIL CHANGES IS THE ONLY CAUSE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE SMOKED SO BAD THAT I THOUGHT IT WAS ON FIRE.*AK

AIR BAGS
UPON STARTING UP THE VEHICLE THE DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG INDICATOR BEGAN BLINKING INSTESD OF GOING OUT. CALLED DEALERSHIP WHO SAID IT WOULD BE $60-$115 JUST TO LOOK AT IT AND HE COULDN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT WAS. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE AND SEEING THE HIGH COST OF REPAIR AND THE NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS I WILL BE TAKING TO AN INDEPENDANT MECHANIC TO GET HIS THOUGHTS. VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT SO I DO NOT FEEL AS IF THIS IS A COMPONENT THAT SHOULD GO BAD. AND IF IT DOES THE CONSUMER SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR REPAIR AS THIS IS A SAFETY COMPONENT. *TR
