2014 SCION TC Electrical System Problems

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE HOUSING AROUND THE AIR CONDITIONER FILLS WITH WATER FROM CONDENSATION, THE DRAINAGE TUBE IS NARROW AND CLOGS, WHICH CAUSES THE WATER TO DRIP OUT OF THE HOUSING AND INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE INTERIOR WHERE IT SWAMPS THE CARPETING FROM FRONT TO BACK. I KNOW AC NORMALLY DOES NOT QUALIFY AS A SAFETY CONCERN BUT TO MY UNDERSTANDING THERE IS ELECTRIC WIRING THAT RUNS UNDER THE CARPET THAT IS CERTAINLY NOT DESIGNED TO BE UNDER AN INCH OF WATER AND THEN THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR HARMFUL MOLD TO DEVELOP FROM THE WET CARPET.

NEITHER THE KEY FOB NOR THE SWITCH IN THE VEHICLE WOULD WORK, AND EVENTUALLY THE DOOR LOCK HAD TO BE MANUALLY OPERATED. A FEW WEEKS LATER, THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR BEGAN HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN INVOLVED IN ANY CRASHES ACCORDING TO ONLINE DATABASES. NO DAMAGE TO EITHER DOOR HAS OCCURRED THAT COULD COMPROMISE ANY ELECTRICAL MECHANISM WITH EXPOSURE TO THE ELEMENTS. A FRIEND HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS 2007 TOYOTA 4RUNNER AND WAS TOLD THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS ARE KNOWN TO FAIL IN CERTAIN YEAR VEHICLES MADE BY TOYOTA. I AM PRETTY SURE THIS IS THE ISSUE WITH MY 2014 SCION TC NOW. I CAN UNDERSTAND THE PART FAILING ON HIS VEHICLE SINCE IT WAS ABOUT TEN YEARS OLD AT THE TIME, HOWEVER MY CAR...
