2006 SCION XB Complaints

ON SEPTEMBER 25 TH MY FAMILY AND I WENT TO THE FAIR IN OUR TOWN IN OUR 2006 SCION XB. CAME HOME PARKED IT IN THE DRIVE WAY AND THE NEXT MORNING WE GOT UP WENT OUTSIDE AROUND 10:00 A.M. TO WASH OUR CARS AND THE WINDSHIELD IN THE SCION WAS BROKEN. THERE IS A CRACK FROM THE REAR VIEW MIRROR IN A V SHAPE GOING HALF WAY DOWN THE WINDSHIELD. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING LINE AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS HAPPENS WITH THIS CAR. THERE WAS EVEN A CLASS ACTION LAW SUITE ON IN. *TR

REAR POWER WINDOWS FAIL TO OPERATE. SAFETY HAZARD IN HOT CLIMATES. TOYOTA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED IN A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN, BUT REPAIRS NOT COVERED EXCEPT UNDER 3 YEAR/36K MILE FACTORY WARRANTY. SUGGEST A RECALL TO REPAIR THIS SAFETY HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IN HOT CLIMATES WHERE CHILDREN CAN BE TRAPPED IN THE VEHICLE IF UNABLE TO OPERATE THE WINDOWS CORRECTLY. *TR

TWO MONTHS AGO, AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY DURING RUSH HOUR, I HEARD A NOISE. AT FIRST, I DID NOT NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT UNTIL I THEN GLANCED AT THE PASSENGER SIDE OF MY WINDSHIELD. THERE WAS A CRACK STARTING FROM THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD TO ABOUT A 1/3 DOWN. IT HAS SLOWLY BEEN GETTING LONGER AND IS NOW HALFWAY TO THE DRIVER'S SIDE. WHEN I GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO EXAMINE THE CRACK, THERE IS NO SIGN OF A ROCK OR ANY OTHER ITEM HITTING THE WINDSHIELD. MY INSURANCE WILL ONLY COVER IT AFTER I PAY MY DEDUCTIBLE (WHICH IS MORE THAN A NEW WINDSHIELD WOULD COST ME). *TR

WOKE UP TO A CRACKED WINDSHIELD BEHIND THE REARVIEW MIRROR. LINE CRACK THAT IS SPREADING SLOWLY. *TR

THIS HAS TO DO WITH FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKING. OUR WINDSHIELD HAS SEVERAL CRACKS FROM A COUPLE OF MINOR HITS BY WHAT I WOULD CONSIDER SMALL PEBBLES. SEVERAL CRACKS HAVE FORMED AND THEY ARE NOW JOINING TOGETHER. I HAVE READ ON LINE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THESE CAR'S AND THEREFORE MAY BE A DEFECT. *TR

WINDSHIELD CRACKED ON PASSENGER SIDE WHILE VEHICLE SAT IN CLOSED GARAGE OVERNIGHT. *TR

PULLED MY 2006 SCION XB INTO THE GARAGE AFTER WAXING IT. ABOUT 30 MINUTES LATER GOT IN TO PULL IT OUT OF THE GARAGE AND THERE WAS A LARGE "L" SHAPED CRACK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD. *TR

THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED ON THE DRIVER SIDE AT EYE LEVEL. FROM THE SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD AT THE ROOF SUPPORT MOVING TOWARDS THE MIDDLE OF THE SHIELD. THE CRACK OCCURRED OVERNIGHT WHILE THE VEHICLE SAT IN OUR GARAGE . IT DID NOT EXPERIENCES ANY TYPE OF IMPACT. NO REPAIR HAS BEEN MADE ONLY AN ESTIMATE OF REPLACEMENT COST. *TR
