Consumer Description

SO I'LL JUST TO GET STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. I HAVE A 2013 SCION FR-S THAT LITERALLY THIS PAST MONDAY I TOOK IN FOR THE RECALL BECAUSE IT WAS REQUIRED FOR ME TO GET MY REGISTRATION. THE DAY I TOOK IT IN WAS JULY 26 2020 WITH 99630 MILES. I RECEIVED IT YESTERDAY AT 5PM FROM THE DEALERSHIP AS THEY TOLD ME THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DONE AND READY AND THAT IT WAS HEALTHY. I DROVE IT STRAIGHT TO MY PARENTS WHICH WASN'T TOO FAR AND THEN LATER ON AROUND 8:30 I WENT HOME. SOON AFTER I WAS PLANNING ON MEETING A FRIEND AND AFTER PICKING THEM UP I HEARD A WEIRD NOISE AND MY VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND I TRIED TO TURN IT BACK ON AND IT WOULDN'T TURN ON. MY VEHICLE ONLY LASTED EXACTLY 50 MILES ON THE ODOMETER FROM WHEN I PICKED IT UP. MY ODOMETER NOW READS 99680 ON THE DOT. THERE IS NO WAY THAT I'M AT FAULT BECAUSE MY VEHICLE WAS RUNNING PERFECT WITH NO ISSUES AND THEN I LEAVE IT WITH TOYOTA FOR 3 DAYS AND GET IT AND IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS IT TURNS OFF WITHIN ONLY 5 1/2 HOURS OF RECEIVING MY VEHICLE. I WILL UPDATE LATER WHEN I RECEIVE WORD FROM TOYOTA ON THE ISSUE. ALSO TO MENTION I HAVE A CODE READER AND HAD 17 CODES THAT READ EVERYTHING INVOLVING FROM THE KNOCK SENSOR TO THE CAM POSITION SENSORS AND THE ANGLE POSITION SENSORS. ALL BRAND NEW CODES DUE AFTER MY VEHICLE SHUT OFF. ALSO TURNS OUT THERE'S HISTORY ON THE COMPUTER THAT I NEVER HAD WHEN I FIRST HAD MY SCAN TOOL.
