This is similar to many of the prior complaints. As I was entering my driveway, I saw blue smoke from the back of my car. There was oil on my driveway and garage. Mechanic told me Toyota used a cheap hose and it failed causing a loss of engine oil. He repaired the hose and was not sure if there was subsequent damage. I tried driving it for a couple of days but found a banging noise at lower speeds. I brought it back today and the mechanic gave me the bad news that the engine needed extensive repair, exceeding $3,500.
