Consumer Description

I HAVE A TOYOTA SCION TC HATCHBACK 2006. LAST YEAR WHEN OPENING THE HATCHBACK WHICH MUST BE MANUALLY OPENED THE LATCH TO OPEN THE HATCHBACK FELL OFF I WAS USING NO EXCESSIVE FORCE I OPENED IT LIKE NORMALLY THE PANEL IS STILL ATTACHED TO THE WIRE THAT GOES ON THE INSIDE I HAVE TAPED IT BACK ON BUT IT CONSTANTLY FALLS OFF WHEN IT RAINS DANGLING WHILE I AM DRIVING UNTIL I CAN RE-TAPE IT. I HAVE GONE TO TWO DIFFERENT TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS IN TWO DIFFERENT STATES (TEXAS AND LOUISIANA) AND BOTH HAVE COMMENTED THAT THEY SEE IT ALL THE TIME. IF IT IS SUCH A COMMON OCCURRENCE TOYOTA SHOULD ORDER A RECALL CONSIDERING IT HAS HAPPENED TO SUCH A LARGE NUMBER OF OWNERS OF THE SCION TC. *TR
