NHTSA Complaint #10284239 — 2005 SCION TC

I HAVE A 2005 SCION TC THAT I PURCHASE BRAND NEW FROM THE FACTORY. RECENTLY I HAD MY HANDLE LATCH BROKEN FROM NORMAL USE. I LIFTED IT LIKE YOU WOULD NORMALLY DO AND IT JUST SNAPPED (BROKE). I THEN REALIZED THAT IT WAS FRAMED OR MADE WITH THIN PLASTIC THAT WOULDN'T LAST LONG ON THE CAR ITSELF BECAUSE IF YOU APPLY NORMAL PRESSURE BY OPENING IT, THE HANDLE IS NOT MADE TO HANDLE SUCH PRESSURE BY THE WEIGHT OF THE TRUCK AND GLASS. IT'S A HATCH BACK. I NOTICE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER SCION TC OWNERS ON SEVERAL BLOGS AND WEBSITES. I HAVE NOT ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT BECAUSE I'M LOOKING AT PARTS ALONE $180 WITHOUT LABOR. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE'S ANYTHING I COULD DO BESIDES FILING A COMPLAINT. THANK YOU. *TR
