08' Yaris HB burning oil

[madtv261]

Right, but the point here is that this is just now becoming a problem of the engine burning oil. That is precisely why I'm looking for assistance on how to resolve this issue. I now have to keep oil in my car to top it off as the oil level depletes faster than before

Ok but you haven't answered a very important question. Do you regularly verify the oil level on the dip stick or wait till the light comes on?

Since the second time this has happened, I've been checking the dip stick about every 3 days to verify oil level

Well theirs the main error to start with. Once that red light comes on for oil.....engine needs to be turned off immediately and not turned on till the oil level is rectified. Also theirs quite often some premature wear if it's neglected to the point of having the dash light go on. Plus this happened twice. :/ That light goes on when theirs no oil pressure.
