2006 SCION XA Electrical System Problems

ENGINE IS SUDDENLY JOLTY AND JUMPY IMMEDIATELY AFTER STARTING, AND BUMPY ESPECIALLY AT AN IDLE BUT ALSO HIGHER SPEEDS, IN ANY DIRECTION OF MOVEMENT. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS FLASHING, AND THEN SOLID, THEN BACK TO FLASHING (REPEAT) BUT EVERY DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE JUST READS "ERROR."

I OWN AN 2006 SCION XA AND I HAVING TROUBLE TO START THE ENGINE WHEN IT'S GET WARM OR NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE. WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD LIKE ON MORNINGS IT STAR RIGHT AWAY WITH A FEW CRANKS BUT AFTER IT'S GETS WARM I TO CRANK TIMES STOP CRANKING AND CRANK IT AGAIN UNTIL ENGINE START, CARS RUN FINE AND GOT NO CHECK ENGINE CODE ON IT.

I OWN A 2006 SCION XA. I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THREE OF THE ELECTRIC WINDOW CONTROLS, AND THE EMISSION SYSTEM KEEPS HAVING PROBLEMS. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING, IN MOTION AND STATIONARY.

HELLO, I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED THREE ELECTRICAL MOTORS FOR MY 2006 SCION XA. I SEE SEVERAL OTHER SCION'S ON THE RECALL FOR THIS. I WOULD SAY MY SCION XA SHOULD BE ON AS WELL. I HAVE SPENT OVER $1,300 ON THESE REPAIRS, AS WELL AS OTHER REPAIRS.

MY POWER WINDOW MASTER SWITCH WENT OUT. I COULD NOT PUT MY RIGHT REAR WINDOW UP. I WENT TO MY LOCAL TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I GET MY MAINTENANCE DONE AND THIS WAS THERE ASSESSMENT. I SEE TODAY ON LINE THAT TOYOTA IS RECALLING VEHICLES DUE TO THE POWER WINDOW SWITCHES MALFUNCTIONING! I CHECKED AND MY MODEL YEAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL. I FIND THIS A VERY ODD COINCIDENCE I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE. I CONTACTED SCION CUSTOMER CARE AND THEY SAID I WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND MY CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. OBVIOUSLY THIS PROBLEM TO ME EXTENDS BEYOND THE MODEL YEARS LISTED. WHAT IS MY RECOURSE. THANK YOU *TR

AFTER MY CAR, A 2006 SCION XA, HAD SAT IN THE PARKING LOT ALL DAY AT WORK, I DROVE ABOUT A BLOCK TO A STOP SIGN WAITING TO CROSS TWO LANES. IT WAS COLD AND RAINY THAT DAY. WHEN I CAME TO A STOP, ALL OF SUDDEN THERE WAS A CLUNK FROM UNDERNEATH THAT I HEARD AND FELT AND WAS IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY THE CAR BUCKING, AS IF IT WAS TRYING TO LEAP AHEAD. I HAD MY FOOT HARD ON THE BRAKE. IT KEPT DOING THIS EVERY 5 SECONDS OR SO UNTIL I WAS ABLE TO MAKE THE TURN. CLUNK, LEAP ' CLUNK, LEAP. IT WAS ALL I COULD DO TO CONTROL THE CAR. IT WAS DIESELING REALLY HARD DURING ALL THIS. ONCE I MADE THE TURN AND STARTED DRIVING, IT SETTLED DOWN AND IT WARMED UP WITHIN FOUR MINUTES AND WAS FINE AGAIN. I THINK I NOTICED THE BRAKE...

1. STARTED THE CAR AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD WOULD NOT STOP FLASHING. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. THE CAR NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, NEVER HAD ANY DAMAGE AND WAS PROPERLY MAINTAINED. STILL UNDER 60,000 MILES AND IS UNDER WARRANTY. *TR 2. IT WOULD FLASH NON STOP WHEN THE CAR WAS OPERATING 3. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER TO SEE IF THEY CAN RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE WIRE UNDER THE PASSENGER SEAT BECAME LOOSE. I WAS TOLD THAT A WATER BOTTLE UNDER THE SEAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE WIRE TO DISCONNECT, BUT BEFORE I CHECKED THE CAR IN THERE WAS NOTHING UNDER THE SEAT. APPARENTLY MOVING THE SEAT BACK AND FORTH CAN CAUSE THE WIRE TO DISCONNECT. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD IN BOTH CASES. I FEEL THAT SOMEBODY SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS. THE DEALER RECONNECTED THE WIRE...
