Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“The contact owns a 2005 toyota Scion XA. The contact noticed that the engine warning light would consistently illuminate on the instrument panel. He took the vehicle to a technician, who stated that the housing around the charcoal canister in the engine failed. As a result, the vehicle would not pass emissions. He called the manufacturer, but they would not assume any responsibility because the warranty was expired. The contact is in the process of having the vehicle repaired. The failure and current mileages were 37,200.”
