1. Desperfecto de pintura en el bonete. 2. Problemas de pegamento al subir y bajar las ventanas.
ON 1/11/19 I TOOK MY 2008 SCION XB TO TOYOTA ONE OF OAKLAND FOR 150,000 MILE SERVICE (MY MILEAGE WAS 104,809 AT THE TIME.) AT THE APPOINTMENT, I EXPLAINED I NOTICED MY CAR USING MORE OIL THAN USUAL. I HAD THE 100,000 MILE SERVICE COMPLETED ON 8/10/18 AND NOTICED I HAD TO ADD ADDITIONAL OIL TO THE ENGINE SINCE THEN, APPROXIMATELY 3 TO 4 QUARTS. THE WEEKEND OF 11/11/18, I NOTICED THE OIL WAS LOW WHEN I CHECKED THE LEVEL, BUT THE OIL LIGHT NEVER CAME ON TO NOTIFY ME. THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT TOYOTA HAD AN EXCESSIVE OIL EXTENDED WARRANTY WHICH EXPIRED LAST YEAR AND ASKED ME IF I WAS NOTIFIED BY TOYOTA. I HAD NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION REGARDING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I HAD BEEN NOTIFIED SEVERAL TIMES BY MAIL AND EVEN A PHONE CALL REGARDING THE TAKATA AIR BAG RECALL AND THE TRD BRAKE KIT RECALL...
USING EXCESSIVE OIL. I EVEN USE THE FACTORY RECOMMENDED WEIGHT WITH FULL SYNTH. USES ~2 1/2 QUARTS PER 3000 MILES. NO SMOKE. NO VISIBLE LEAK.
FOR THE 3RD TIME IN 18 MONTHS THE CLUTCH PEDAL STICKS MAKING THE VEHICLE NOT DRIVABLE. THE LINKAGE HAS BROKEN, OR ACCORDING TO TOYOTA SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE, DIRT HAS COLLECTED UNDERNEATH THE CABLE WHICH PREVENTS THE CLUTCH FROM ENGAGING PROPERLY. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN PARKED, BUT I DREAD IT OCCURRING IN TRAFFIC OR ON THE FREEWAY. AFTER THE FIRST OCCURRENCE, IT DID HAPPEN AFTER I LEFT THE FREEWAY FROM JUST HAVING IT REPAIRED. EVERY INCIDENT REQUIRES A VEHICLE TOW.
THE CAR SUSTAINED A N L SHAPED CRACK IN THE WINDSHIELD PASSENGER SIDE FROM NO APPARENT IMPACT . CLEARLY A DESIGN FLAW AND IS LIKELY TO HAPPEN AGAIN ACCORDING TO HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS . *TR
