You must be either doing a poor job of caring for your family cars, or just having REAL bad luck!
6 motors in ten years? Whew....
You're the first person I know who's killed ANY Toyota vehicle in three years flat.
Hope you have better luck in the future , sir.

You can blame the Toyota service center and their Genuine parts – that’s what was used on my wife’s Rav-4. So i guess the Toyota Dealer does a poor job maintaining my cars in my area ... OR its the downrated US API/ILSACGF4 oil that Porsche, Audi, BMW, VW do not allow anywhere near their vehicles ... I saved my Yaris from the brink with Motul 8100 and WIX
