Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I own a toyota camry 1998 model. the engine oil leaks non-stop. several months back i received a notice of class action settlement with the toyota company. it stated that all toyota camrys 1998 had an engine oil leak defect, and as per the class action settlement i could take my car to a toyota dealership and they would fix this problem at their cost. also, that if i had incurred any costs trying to have this problem fixed on my own, toyota will pay such costs to the owner. accordingly, i took my car to the dealership. they took the copy of the notice from me and informed me that it does not apply to my car. i was told that they could check and fix the problem, but i would have to pay for it. if this was the case, then why was i sent a notice in the first place to take my car to a dealership for the problem fix? this has been a very frustrating and embarrassing experience. this is my complaint, and i request help in getting this problem resolved. *jb
