TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 02, 2005.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:ROOF AND PILLARS . MY BOYFRIEND AND I WERE DRIVING MY CAR ON A CLEAR, SUNNY DAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER RUNNING AND ALL WINDOWS CLOSED ON I-495 IN MARYLAND, WHEN WE HEARD A LOUD POP. THINKING THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CAR OR THE TIRES I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE I THEN DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS THE MOON ROOF WIND DEFLECTOR SHATTERED. GLASS WAS FALLING IN THOUGH THE COVER FOR THE MOONROOF ON OUR HEAD. WE ENDED UP SWITCHING PLACES AND TAKING THE BACK ROADS TO THE DEALERSHIP. I CALLED THEM AND LET THEM KNOW WHAT HAPPENED AND FOUND THAT THEY WERE VERY ACCUSATORY. WE EXPLAINED THAT WE HAD NOT PASSED UNDER ANY OVERPASSES AND NO DEBRIS WERE OBSERVED EITHER VISUALLY OR HEARD WHILE IN THE CAR COMING FROM THE ROAD OR ANOTHER CAR. ONCE DROPPING IT OFF THEY TRIED TO MAKE ME FEEL AS IF IT WAS ME AND THAT MY INSURANCE MAY HAVE TO HANDLE IT. AFTER A MONTH OF DEALING WITH THEM THEY RETURNED THE CAR WITH A NEW MOON ROOF AND FRESHLY PAINTED REAR SPOILER. RECENTLY I FOUND AN ARTICLE IN THE WALL STREET JOURNAL STATING THAT TOYOTA MOTOR CORP IN RECALLING 71,000 05-06 SCION TC'S.

TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on Feb 21, 2006.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with VISIBILITY:SUN ROOF ASSEMBLY . I WAS DRIVING TO WORK AT APPROXIMATELY 8:30 IN THE MORNING AT AROUND 70 MPH ON HWY 40 IN ST. LOUIS WHEN MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. THE ACTUAL SUNROOF EXPLODED AND NOT THE WIND DEFLECTOR. THE SUNROOF WAS FULLY CLOSED AND THE WIND DEFLECTOR WAS AS WELL. I KEEP THE SUNROOF COVER OPEN MOST OF THE TIME SO I GET MORE LIGHT INTO THE CAR AND AS A RESULT GLASS RAINED DOWN INTO MY CAR. UPON INSPECTION, I FOUND THAT THE GLASS OF THE SUNROOF WAS COMPLETELY SHATTERED AND DID NOT CRACK LIKE A SPIDER-WEB, BUT LIKE SOMEONE HAD SET A BOMB OFF ON TOP OF IT. THE WIND DEFLECTOR WAS UNDAMAGED. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY WERE VERY ACCUSATORY AND SAID A ROCK OR OTHER DEBRIS MUST HAVE BROKEN IT. I STILL FAIL TO SEE HOW A ROCK BIG ENOUGH TO SHATTER THE GLASS LIKE IT DID GOT BY ME WITH ME SEEING IT. IF A HUGE ROCK WAS BOUNCING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, I WOULD HAVE DEFINITELY SEEN IT. ANOTHER THING THAT MADE THAT CLAIM RIDICULOUS WAS THE FACT THAT THERE WERE NO LARGE TRUCKS OR OTHERWISE CARRYING ANYTHING WITHIN SIGHT AT THE TIME IT HAPPENED. *NM SUNROOF GLASS BREAKAGE.PCO.Mileage was 5500 miles.

TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 02, 2008.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY . THE REAR DOOR LATCH BROKE OFF IN MY HAND. THE WHOLE MECHANISM NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. SCION CLAIMS THAT THE OWNER'S MANUAL ADVISES NOT TO LET THE MECHANISM BEAR ANY WEIGHT. THIS IS ERRONEOUS, AS THE OWNER'S MANUAL TELLS YOU TO LIFT AFTER PUSHING THE BUTTON. THIS LIFTING OVER TIME CAUSES WEAR OF THE TINY PLASTIC PIECES THAT ARE BEARING THE WEIGHT OF THE ENTIRE REAR/HATCH BACK DOOR. AFTER HAVING THIS PROBLEM I HAVE BEEN LOOKING AT OTHER VEHICLES ON THE ROAD, AND NOT MANY HAVE THIS KIND OF FAULTY DESIGN. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS TWO-FOLD: NUMBER ONE, THE LIGHT ON TOP OF THIS MECHANISM IS THE BRAKE LIGHT. IT JUST FALLS OFF OVER TIME. ONCE IT IS BROKEN, THERE IS NO WAY TO HOLD IT IN PLACE AND IT BLOCKS THE LICENSE PLATE AND ALSO COULD FALL OFF ENTIRELY AND DAMAGE ANOTHER VEHICLE. NEEDLESS TO SAY I COULD NOT BELIEVE THAT THIS WAS DESIGNED INTO THE VEHICLE. I AM CONVINCED THAT NUMEROUS OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AS BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SCION HELP LINE ADMITTED THAT THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY. THEY ALL SEEM TO BE IN COLLUSION ABOUT IT BEING A DESIGN DEFECT EVEN THOUGH THEY ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE WEIGHT BEARING ASPECT OF THE TRUNK LATCH. I WAS TO OPEN IT BY TOUCHING THE BUTTON AND THEN LIFTING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE TRUNK. WHEN DOING THIS IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO OPEN THE DOOR AS THE LATCH NEEDS TO BE PUSHED AT THE SAME TIME IT IS LIFTED UPWARD. OTHERWISE THE LATCH JUST STAYS LOCKED. I FIND THIS WHOLE SITUATION PROBLEMATIC AS I PURCHASED A SCION BECAUSE OF TOYOTA'S SOLID REPUTATION OF STANDING BY THEIR VEHICLES. AS MAY VEHICLE IS PAST ITS WARRANTY THIS DEFECT IS NOT COVERED. I WAS TOLD THAT AS ONE TIME GESTURE THEY WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM IF I PAID FOR IT AND THEN APPLIED FOR REIMBURSEMENT. I LIVE FROM PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK AND DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO FIX THE DANGLING DOOR LATCH. AFTER SPEAKING WITH SCION OVER SEVERAL DAYS THEY AGREED TO COVER THE REPAIR IF THE DEALERSHIP WOULD BILL SCION FOR THE COST. THE ISSUE IS THAT IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN. *TR.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 42546 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTKDE167760.

TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on Feb 04, 2009.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STRUCTURE:FRAME AND MEMBERS . IN EARLY FEBRUARY 2009 MY DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR DID NOT OPEN ALL THE WAY. I THOUGHT THAT IT JUST WAS STICKING AND GAVE IT A HARDER PUSH. IT THEN STARTED WORKING FINE. A COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER I WENT TO THE DRIVE THROUGH AT THE BANK AND LOWERED THE WINDOW. WHEN I WENT TO PUT IT UP IT ONLY WENT UP HALF WAY. IT WAS TWO MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY TOLD ME THAT THE WAY THE HINGE AND WINDOW MECHANISM ARE DESIGNED I NEEDED A COMPLETELY NEW DOOR, THAT THE OLD ONE COULD NOT BE FIXED. I FOUND OUT THIS IS A DESIGN DEFECT WITH THE CAR WHICH DEALERS WERE NOTIFIED OF IN 2007, BUT WERE NOT REQUIRED TO NOTIFY VEHICLE OWNERS. THE REPAIR WAS GOING TO COST ME AROUND $2400. JUST FOUND A FRIEND WHO WAS ABLE TO FIX IT IN AN HOUR AND A HALF. THERE IS A MODIFICATION AVAILABLE IF YOU KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND ASK. MODIFICATION REALLY NEEDS TO BE DONE BEFORE THE PROBLEM OCCURS, OR AT LEAST BEFORE YOU USE THE WINDOW AFTER THE DOOR STICKS, BUT IF YOU ARE UNAWARE OF THE DESIGN PROBLEM, THE INITIAL STICKING OF THE DOOR SEEMS LIKE A MINOR NEXT TIME THE CAR IS SERVICE HAVE IT LUBED TYPE ISSUE. *TR UPDATED 09/01/09. *LJ.Mileage was 28500 miles.

TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on Oct 28, 2009.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with ELECTRICAL SYSTEM . I WAS PARKED ON A CORNER AND HEARD A LOUD POP. I WAS SCARED AND AUTOMATICALLY THOUGHT SOMETHING FELL ON THE TOP OF MY CAR. I SAW GLASS FALLING IN THE CAR AND OUTSIDE THE CAR. I GOT OUT TO LOOK AT IT AND NOTHING WAS ON OR NEAR THE CAR SHOWING THAT SOMETHING FELL ON IT. THE WIND DEFLECTOR MALFUNCTIONED CAUSING IT TO POP UP, WHILE THE SUNROOF WAS CLOSED, AND BREAKING THE SIDE HINGES FOR THE SUNROOF, AND SHATTERING THE SUNROOF GLASS. BEING THAT I WAS NOT HOME AT THE TIME, I DROVE TO MY RESIDENCE AND GLASS WAS FLYING IN AND OFF THE CAR FROM THE SUNROOF THROUGH THE VISOR. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED WITH MY CAR BUT NOT THE FIRST INCIDENT WITH SCION TC. I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS PART, BUT FOUND THAT I WAS NOT THE ONLY SCION TC OWNER WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM. I CALLED SCION ABOUT IT, AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX IT IF IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND THIS WOULD HAVE TO BE PAID FOR OUT OF POCKET. I WOULD HAVE TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP OR MY INSURANCE COMPANY AND PAY AN ESTIMATED $932.41. PROBLEM IS, INSURANCE DOES NOT COVER COMPANY MALFUNCTIONS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A COMPANIES RECURRING MECHANICAL ERRORS. THIS IS UNSAFE AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE MADE ON THIS AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I COULD'VE BEEN HURT, SPLINTERS FROM THE GLASS COULD HAVE GOTTEN IN MY EYES. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. *TR.Mileage was 63175 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTKDE177560.

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA SCION TC AND THE REAR HATCH HANDLE HAS COMPLETELY COME OFF FOR THE 4TH TIME IN 5 YEARS. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THE 2ND AND 3RD TIME IT WAS COVERED BY THE DEALERSHIP AS A COURTESY BUT, AS THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY, THEY WANT TO CHANGE ME $260. JUDGING BY WHAT I HAVE READ, THERE IS CERTAINLY A PROBLEM IN THE DESIGN TO EXPECT TWO CLIPS TO HOLD A PIECE OF PLASTIC THAT IS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE LATCH THAT OPENS THE TRUNK. THERE IS A TSB IN JANUARY THIS YEAR THAT COVERS THE BACK DOOR HANDLE GARNISH THAT IS LOOSE OR BROKEN, BUT MY DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT IS NOT THE SAME. FOR ME TO SPEND MONEY ON AN OBVIOUS TOYOTA MANUFACTURING PROBLEM THAT WILL OCCUR AGAIN IS RIDICULOUS. I HAVE IT TAPED ON WITH DUCT TAPE THAT IS REALLY A NICE COLOR. HOW DO I GET SATISFACTION FROM TOYOTA? IS THERE A TSB THAT I CAN'T FIND? *TR.Mileage was 92000 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTKDE177360.

I OWN A 2006 SCION TC WITH 57,828, MILES. MY WARNING BRAKE LIGHT AND WARNING ABS LIGHT CAME ON; STAYED ON AND IS STILL ACTIVATED ON MY DASHBOARD FOR ABS AND BRAKE. THE TOYOTA DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN CONFIRMED THAT THIS SAFETY PROBLEM IS SOLELY AN INTERNAL DEFECT OF THE ABS ECU SYSTEM. WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO THE LOCAL TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN LAFAYETTE, LA. THE CERTIFIED TOYOTA/ SCION AUTOMOTIVE TECHNICIAN INDICATED THAT THIS PROBLEM SHOULD NOT BE OCCURRING WITH A VEHICLE WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE. FURTHER, THE TECHNICIAN INDICATED THAT IF I CONTINUED DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM IT COULD RESULT IN INACTIVE ABS, AND THE CEASING OF BRAKES IF THE SYSTEM WERE TO ENGAGE. BOTH OF THESE OUTCOMES ARE SERIOUS SAFETY RISKS AND COULD POTENTIALLY BE THE CAUSE OF AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENTS. IT WAS NOT CONCLUDED WHETHER THIS DEFECT WOULD ENGAGE THE BRAKE AND ABS LIGHT FOR ALL VEHICLES; I AM LUCKY THAT MY LIGHT WENT ON AND THAT I WENT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP RIGHT AWAY TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT. I AM NOT SURE IF OTHER PEOPLE WOULD DO THE SAME, AND THEY SHOULD BE ALERTED TO HAVE THIS ISSUE CHECKED OUT. *TR.Mileage was 57828 miles. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN):JTKDE177570.

I WAS DRIVING UP SPRUCE STREET IN MANCHESTER NH. AS I WENT THROUGH A GREEN LIGHT AT THE CORNER OF SPRUCE ST AND BEECH ST, I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT THAT I WAS NOT AT FAULT FOR, BY SOMEONE WHO WAS NOT PAYING ATTENTION AND WENT THROUGH A RED LIGHT, AS I WAS GOING THROUGH MY GREEN LIGHT. I WAS HIT VERY HARD (ALL THE IMPACT WAS TO THE FRONT OF MY VEHICLE) AND I AM THANKFUL I HAD MY SEAT BELT ON BECAUSE MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT END OF MY VEHICLE WAS SO BAD MY CAR WAS ALMOST TOTALED ($7,200 IN REPAIRS). I WAS TOLD BY THE COLLISION CENTER THAT "THERE ARE MANY FACTORS THAT GO INTO THE AIR BAGS DEPLOYING AND NOT DEPLOYING" I ALMOST FELT AS THOUGH I WAS BRUSHED OFF FOR SOMETHING THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED ME MY LIFE. THERE STILL HAS NOT BEEN ANYTHING DONE WITH MY AIRBAGS, I WAS ONLY TOLD THAT THEY "SHOULD" BE FINE. *TR.Vehicle was involved in a crash. Mileage was 62750 miles.

TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on July 28, 2010.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with UNKNOWN OR OTHER . FAILURE TO HIT UNLOCK MULTIPLE TIMES ON KEYLESS REMOTE WHEN ACCESSING REAR HATCHBACK TRUNK WILL PUT UNDUE STRESS ON THE POORLY DESIGNED ENTRY POINT. EVEN WITH USING THE UNLOCK FEATURE WHEN THE FRONT PASSENGER AND DRIVER DOORS ARE UNLOCKED THE TRUNK LID REMAINS LOCKED. SINCE THIS IS SUCH A POOR DESIGN IT HAS BROKEN AND THE ONLY WAY TO REPLACE IS 800 REPAIR BILL FOR NEW PART AND HAVE IT PAINTED. I HAVE TO POINT OUT THAT THE HATCHBACK IS OPENED AND ACCESED BY AN ELECTRIC PRESSURE POINT WITH KEYLESS ENTRY ONLY, SINCE THIS IS A PLASTIC PART AND IS VERY WEAK, IT ONLY TAKES A FEW VISITS TO THE CAR WASH OR DEALER TO HAVE SOMEONE ATTEMPT TO OPEN THE HATCHBACK WITH THE CAR UNLOCKED TO WRENCH ON THIS PART AND CAUSE IT TO FAIL. MOST MODERN VEHICLES HAVE A TRUNK RELEASE BUTTON, OR KEYED ENTRY WHICH WOULD PREVENT THIS OBVIOUS AND COMMON FAILURE, ITS COMMON BECAUSE I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL SCION TC'S WITH THIS PART HANGIN FROM THE HATCHBACK AND BLOCKING VIEW OF THE VEHICLES LICENSE PLATE, WHICH IN MOST STATES IS AN OFFENSE AND A SAFETY VIOLATION. .Mileage was 45000 miles.

TOYOTA SCION TC 2006 car safety problem was reported on Sept 18, 2011.TOYOTA SCION TC 2006, manufactured by TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION had a problem with STEERING . VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN ON A LONG STRAIGHT ROAD AT 55MPH. SUDDENLY THE STEERING PULLED RIGHT AND LOCKED. THE STEERING WHEEL COULD NOT BE TURNED BACK LEFT. IT ALL HAPPENED SUDDENLY AND QUICKLY. THIS ROAD HAS POWER POLES ALONG THE RIGHT SIDE. SINCE THE STEERING COULD NOT BE CORRECTED, THE CAR WENT HEAD ON INTO A POWER POLE. THE TOP OF THE POWER POLE BROKE OFF AND FELL TO THE GROUND, LANDING A FOOT AWAY FROM THE CAR, WITH 5 DOWNED POWER LINES LAYING ALL OVER THE GROUND. MY DAUGHTER WHO WAS DRIVING COULD NOT BREATHE DUE TO THE FUMES INSIDE THE CAR, AND WAS ABLE TO PUSH THE DOOR OPEN AFTER SEVERAL TRIES. FORTUNATELY AS SHE GOT OUT OF THE CAR SHE DID NOT TOUCH ANY OF THE LIVE POWER LINES. THE POWER POLE ENDED UP ALMOST TO THE WINDSHIELD. IT WAS A TREMENDOUS IMPACT. THE MOTOR BROKE IN HALF, AND THE CAR WAS A COMPLETE LOSS. IT IS A MIRACLE MY DAUGHTER SURVIVED THIS CRASH, INCLUDING THE IMMEDIATE IMPACT, THE POLE FALLING NEXT TO THE CAR, NOT ON THE CAR, AND THE FACT SHE DIDN'T TOUCH THE LIVE POWER LINES WHEN SHE HOBBLED OUT OF THE CAR. I RESEARCHED THIS ONLINE, AND HAVE FOUND SEVERAL OTHERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS SAME YEAR MAKE AND MODEL CAR. THE OTHER INCIDENTS DIDN'T CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT. MY DAUGHTER ACCIDENT WAS NEAR FATAL. WITH OTHER COMPLAINTS ALREADY MADE FOR THE SAME THING, SOMEONE SHOULD HAVE LOOKED INTO THIS. THE NEXT ACCIDENT WITH THIS CAUSE MAY CAUSE SOME SOMEONE TO LOSE THEIR LIFE. TOYOTA HAS THIS PROBLEM ON ANOTHER MODEL SO IT SHOULD NOT BE A SURPRISE THEY HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE SCION TC. SHE DID NOT SUFFER MAJOR INJURIES, BUT DOES HAVE INJURIES TO HER ELBOW, AND BOTH FEET. SHE WAS BRUISED FROM HEAD TO TOE. SHE IS NOW OUT OF THE WHEELCHAIR AND USES CRUTCHES TO GET AROUND. WHO KNOWS HOW LONG IT WILL TAKE HER TO BE ABLE TO WALK FULLY AND CORRECTLY AGAIN. *TR.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 1 person(s) were injured. Mileage was 108000 miles.

THE TRUNK HANDLE ON MY BROKE OFF. SCION REFUSES TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS DESIGN DEFECT. MY HUSBAND GLUED IT DOWN, BUT MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THE PIECE BREAKS OFF OR DETACHES IT COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO ANOTHER VEHICLE OR INJURY. SCION REPRESENTATIVES SAID THAT IT ISN'T A DESIGN FLAW, BUT RATHER USER ERROR FROM FAILURE TO OPEN THE LATCH PROPERLY. THIS IS NOT THE CASE, AS I AM NOW EVEN MORE CAREFUL NOW THAT THE LATCH IS GLUED ON. EVEN NOW WHEN I AM OVERLY CAUTIOUS TO OPEN THE LATCH CORRECTLY, IT STILL GETS STUCK AND I'M CONCERNED IT WILL BREAK AGAIN. NOW THAT I HAVE HAD THE INCIDENT HAPPEN, I HAVE SEEN 4 OTHER SCIONS IN VARIOUS PLACES THAT HAVE THEIR HANDLE TAPED UP, MOST LIKELY DUE TO THE SAME REASON. I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT SCION BELIEVES IT IS THE CONSUMER WHO IS AT FAULT WHEN IT IS CLEARLY A FLAW IN THE DESIGNS OF THEIR VEHICLE, AND THEY REFUSE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE UNLESS YOU HAVE DROPPED HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS WITH THEM AT THEIR DEALERSHIP FOR OIL CHANGES OR OTHER SERVICES. *TR.Mileage was 122000 miles.
