Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a 1999 toyota camry in january 01. approximately, 18 months later, my vehicle suffered engine failure. i was advised by the toyota dealership that the damage was due to excessive sludge in the engine. i completed regular oil changes and maintenance on this vehicle. additionally, the warranty only partially paid for the damage. i was forced to pay about $2400. even though my warranty should have covered everything less the $500 deductible. i have been informed that toyota recognized this problem and said that it would pay for these damages. i am interested in investigating if i can have the funds i paid refunded to me.*ak
