“2006 Scion XA water leaks under tweeter on drivers side door. Second complaint the headlights are horrible in fog you can see beams of light going straight up into the air causing a blinding effect because of poor headlight housing design. It's dangerous and I have made sure the headlights are aimed properly. Last complaint the factory tires hydroplane very easily making the car almost impossible to drive in the rain safely they need to get rid of the goodyear factory tires. …”
NHTSA complaint #10182173, filed 2007-02, 600 miles“Well, I too have a 2006 Scion XA with less than 5,000 miles on it! The left tweeter and mirror combination must be a bad design because mine is leaking and it also caused the tweeter to fail. The ventilation system for heating/cooling and defogging is woefully inadequate. I'm very concerned about the person who stated that his scions have improperly gaped spark plugs!! Doesn't seem like toyota and now, Scion is building cars the way they used too. …”
