My son was in a wreck over a week ago. He lost control and ran into the side of a brick house. Both airbags did not deploy. I would assume any impact such as these the air bags would have deployed but they did not.i have pictures attached.
Mi vehicle is in motion the brakes have a sound and the air bag is turn on
Air bag turns off randomly without warning, light comes on while driving. Also vehicle is due to have trd brakes replaced.
Was commuting back to work from lunch break when out of nowhere i lost control of steering and braking of my vehicle crashing into a stone wall before i could pull my emergency break after the vehicle could not slow down on a city street in motion
After having the vehicle for about 6 months, first, the passenger door began to intermittently respond to locking/unlocking commands. Neither the key fob nor the switch in the vehicle would work, and eventually the door lock had to be manually operated. A few weeks later, the driver side door began having the same issues. The vehicle has not been involved in any crashes according to online databases. No damage to either door has occurred that could compromise any electrical mechanism with exposure to the elements. A friend had the same problem with his 2007 toyota 4runner and was told the door lock actuators are known to fail in certain year vehicles made by toyota. I am pretty sure this is the issue with my 2014 scion tc now. I can understand the part failing on his vehicle since it was about ten years old at the time, however my car is only 4-5 years old.the keyless entry system on my scion currently only operates the rear hatch, for now. I am only able to secure my vehicle if i manually lock both doors, and then press lock on the key fob to arm the anti-theft system. I cannot access the passenger side door with the key as there is no key hole provided on that side. If so many of toyota's door actuators are failing like this, they should recall and replace the poorly manufactured versions they installed on the vehicles since the parts are so expensive not to mention labor. My friend ended up trading his 4runner and left the toyota brand altogether. I have always preferred toyota and actually encouraged him to buy one as well. However, i am having a difficult time convincing myself from taking the same route as him.
The contact owns a 2014 scion tc. While driving various speeds, the "maintenance required" and engine warning indicators illuminated without warning. The vehicle was taken to toyota momentum in fairfield, california where it was determined that rodents had destroyed the wiring harness in the vehicle due to the soy based construction of the wires. The wiring harness was replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue and stated that there was no recall on the vehicle. The failure mileage was approximately 51,000. The vin was not available.
Steering wheel turns too easily to have a safe amount of control over the vehicle.there is very little traction where the tires meet the roads.i spent $700.00 on cooper tires thinking this would help, but still car slides over the ground.i checked to see if the traction control was off but that was not the case.this is a very dangerous car. I paid cash for my car and have no other recourse but to keep it.i have no more money. Specifically, when the car is in motion there is very little stability or traction on the road, and it is very scary.this kind of driving would be normal on icy roads, but scion tc drives like this on dry roads in warm weather.
I was driving on highway 522 going 60mph at 11:30pm. The highway was smooth and had no bumps then randomly the wheel on the rear passenger side broke off the car and went flying. Police officers and state troopers looked for the wheel and they couldn't find it. Luckily i remembered in drivers ed that when a tire blows out (even though this situation is a little different) you firmly hold onto the steering wheel and hold it straight. The car then straightened out and stopped once i ran into the railing.
Manufacturer recall numberj0unhtsa recall number18e091i've been warned about this recall for my vehicles brakes, and i noticed a little before i received this warning that my brakes are making a strange noise when i back out of my garage that seems to be coming from the brake hose. I've also noticed on the freeway if i was to slam on my brakes that it slides a little more tha i would expect and makes a pretty bad grinding noise.

Water drips into passenger floor space. Brought in for repair three times since 9-07-2014 and owned the vehicle since 8-34-2014. Scion/toyata is aware of this issue and stated that it is because of spiders building a nest in the condenser hose of the a/c unit. Scion/toyota says that they can charge you $61 to repair this issue each time it occurs. Notice that it occurred because when making left turns you can hear water rushing.
Have you had any complaints on the n5000 plus tires?we bought a set for my 2014 scion tc early last year and at about 18,000 miles one of the tires blew the sidewall out. Around feb 10, 2017,the other tire did the same thing.i have written nexen but have not heard back.these tires are rated at 65,000 but they have about 18,000 and they have worn quite a bit. I dont understand how they can say a tire should get at leasst that many miles and you dont get 1/2.
I had an incident of spontaneous glass breakage of the moonroof on my 2014 scion tc. The vehicle was stationary. I was in a parked in a parking lot with the ignition off. I heard a loud explosion sound similar to the sound of a gun shot. The sound came from the glass moonroof located behind the sunroof exploding/shattering. I was not driving and there was no impact that occurred. The event was spontaneous and happened out of nowhere. Being that i was stationary the glass in the middle did not immediately fall in and the outside edges had shattered and where forcefully thrown on to the car and surrounding areas. The middle was oddly ballooned/domed in the middle. I immediately took it to the dealership which was 2 miles away and from that short drive the center of the glass began to cave in and allow glass to enter into the vehicle directly above where passages sit in the back seat. Luckily no one was in the backseat when this happened our directly outside the vehicle and was injured by this. Through further research i have found out that tempered glass can spontaneously break. Some of the causes of this to happen include binding of the glass in the frame, causing stresses to develop as the glass expands and contracts due to thermal changes or deflects due to wind. Internal defects within the glass such as nickel sulfide inclusions. Damages accrued during installation. Thermal stresses in the glass and inadequate glass thickness to resist wind load. I also discovered that there have been many other claims including scion tc's and the moonroof breaking and risk of showering glass on top of drivers and passengers. I went to the toyota dealership and they want to take no responsibility for it and have pushed it off to my insurance company. The glass shop and collision center believe its from the stress load the frame puts on the glass that caused this spontaneous break.
I was driving in the highway, i had my front sunroof open. Which i most do, butall of sudden my rear sunroof shatter. Glass went every in the front seats. When i pulled over to find out what happen. The rear sunroof that is stationary was shattered and outer frame. It was all broken. I am attaching pictures about the incident. No object hit my car. I don't know what it just happen.
My 2014 scion tc has a little over 19,000 miles and i need tires already.at 15,000 they were already wearing down.this is not normal for a set of tires.i hope they make the manufacture pull them.
