3 months is a really short period of time for a break job. Sounds like something was wrong from the beginning.

| I have a 2008. Its been in the dealer 6 times. Auto trans is problem. Scion green team tech has been scrambling to avoid a HUGE tech issue with car! Clunk in trans due to design. Loosens as mileage racks up (11,041). Clunks in downshifting lots of play. Dealer authorized new axles. Did not fix problem. Dealer tried again because they could not get rid of problem. Scion world headquarters has case file opened and scion techs and design team were sent in. They had car all day. They found that this car has no problems. The dealer disagrees. It is being talked about that there is a very big problem with the autos. They have had many complaints. Im going to get this fixed or never buy a toyota product again. Ive own them all my life. | |

| Keep us posted if this problem gets fixed or not, I have put off my purchase just to see how many problems or if a consistant one appears over the next few months. | |

Replying to: scion06 (Jan 12, 2007 5:52 pm) Hope your problem has been resolved. I have an 08 purchased in September with 9000 miles. Yesturday I went to start it and it "wouldn't fire". Followed the "flooded" starting directions and it would not start, the starter just kept turning over with no apparent "spark." After towing to the dealership, they claim one of their mechanics started it right up, and it must have been flooded. I was shocked, I've tried to start a flooded vehicle before and it never just turned the starter with no attempt to spark. Hoots

Replying to: hoots (Dec 06, 2007 8:10 am) Sounds like you have to be a Toyota mechanic to start an xB. Scion sales will drop to zero after all of the mechanics buy one.. You just caught Toyota in their 1st lie. Very Sad. David |
