SCION Complaints

THIS VEHICLE WAS JUST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, REAR-ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE IS DEMOLISHED, THE RADIATOR AND EVERYTHING CRUSHED AND SLAMMED BACK, FLUIDS LEAKING FROM EVERYTHING, EVEN BUCKLED THE PASSENGER DOOR, THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THIS VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. THE POLICE OFFICERS ON THE SCENE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY DID NOT DEPLOY.

TAKATA RECALL - TOYOTA DEALERSHIPS ARE REFUSING TO REPLACE AIRBAGS. THEY ARE STATING THAT LETTER I RECEIVED FROM TK HOLDINGS INC. AND THE WEB-SITE THEY REFERRED ME TO (WWW.AIRBAGRECALL.COM) ARE FRAUDS. THEIR STATEMENTS SUGGEST THAT EVERYONE IS "GETTING ON THE BANDWAGON" TO DEFRAUD CONSUMERS. THEY STATED THAT SINCE THE TOYOTA WEB-SITE IS NOT INDICATING MY CAR'S AIRBAG IS DANGEROUS THEY ARE NOT GOING TO REPLACE IT. I AM OUTRAGED!!!

THE BOLTS AND STUDS HAVE CONTINUALLY GONE BAD ON MY CAR. I'VE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE ALL THE BOLTS AND ALMOST 10 OF THE STUDS. THE CAR HAS NEVER BEEN IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT NOR HAD ANY DAMAGE TO THE WHEELS BEFORE. NO ONE CAN FIGURE OUT WHY THIS KEEPS HAPPENING, BUT I CAN'T EVEN CHANGE MY TIRES WITHOUT A BOLT BREAKING. VERY DANGEROUS!

TAKATA RECALL PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AUGUST 2017 AND WAS NOT AWARE OR TOLD ABOUT RECALL UNTIL RECEIVED THIS NOTICE IN THE MAIL THIS MONTH 2-2018

STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND WAS REAR ENDED. COLLISION REPAIR SHOP NOTED THERE WAS UNIBODY/FRAME DAMAGE BUT WAS NOT TOTALED OUT. NOW WE CANNOT TRADE IN VEHICLE BECAUSE THE DAMAGE IS SHOWING UP ON THE CARFAX AND NOBODY WANTS TO TOUCH IT. WE CANNOT GET OUR INSURANCE COMPANY OR THE REPAIR SHOP TO REMOVE THAT INFO FROM THE CARFAX BECAUSE THEY SUPPOSEDLY FIXED IT. WE ARE STUCK BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE DRIVING A VEHICLE AROUND WITH FRAME DAMAGE.

I BOUGHT A NEW TOYOTA IM BUT IT WAS A BROKEN EVAPORATOR CORE. I WANT TOYOTA CHECK THE PLACE. I AM CLAIMING TO THE LEMON LAW ARBITRATION. THE MECHANIC WHO CHECKED SAID LOOKED LIKE IT WAS CRUSHED WHEN THE CAR WAS MAKING. I WOULD LIKE YOU TO CHECK FURTHER INVESTIGATION SINCE IT WAS SOLD AS A BRAND NEW CAR AND TOYOTA TRY TO GET AWAY WITH NOTHING HAPPENED. ALSO CLEARWATER POLICE FOUND THAT THEIR TINTED WINDOWS WERE ILLEGAL LEVEL. THEY SOLD ME AN ILLEGAL CAR!!

HIGH CONSUMPTION OF ENGINE OIL. I AM HAVING TO ADD ABOUT A QUART EVERY 1000 MILES OR SO. TOOK TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD I WAS 2 WEEKS PAST THE DEADLINE OF 10 YEARS FROM THE DATE THE VEHICLE WENT INTO SERVICE. THE CAR IS WELL UNDER THE 150,000 MILES COVERAGE PERIOD AT ONLY 90,000 MILES. TOYOTA'S POSITION WAS FIRM ON THE 2 WEEK OVERAGE PERIOD. THIS JUST DOES NOT SEEM RIGHT. THIS CAR'S ENGINE COULD LOCK UP DUE TO LACK OF OIL AND CAUSE ME TO WRECK NOT TO MENTION THE UNNECESSARY AMOUNT OF AIR POLLUTION THIS IS CAUSING
