| We question why none of the 4 airbags (2 sides, driver or passenger) deployed in a crash that had the 2010 scion xb airborne. and the vehicle rolled resting upright on the front of the car. the injuries were predominantly seatbelt bruises and a fractured kneecap. the multiple impacts during rolling may have been too low to initiate an airbag deployment or it could indicate a problem. what should be done to determine whether the response was appropriate? the car will likely be totaled by state farm. is there (or should there be) any trigger that causes records to be kept on levels of damage and whether airbags actually deployed? *tr | |||

| The first time my brakes stopped working was in the endings of may of 2010, i was in a bumby road going about 45 mph. i was nearing a stop sign and my brakes would not work. the brake pedal would touch the floor until i received signals that it was working. it did this about 3-4 times. i took my car in that same day and nothing was found to be wrong. six months later, this same incident happened again. but this time i was in a traffic area and people around. my brakes would not work, they were again doing the same thing. i contacted a specialest from toyota scion and he came a week later and inspected my car and found nothing wrong. but he did actually do something about it, which was great. he replaced my brake cylinder. so after this second time i thought it wouldn't happend again. but it was a much shorter time frame than the last 2. the third time was on february 14, 2011, only 3 months from the 2nd,. now i just don't feel safe driving my vehicle. i have a child, and a little sister that often ride with me. i don't want there to be a bad accident where i wont be able to brake at all. not only that, but my brakes shouldn't be doing this in the first place. | |||

| 2010 scion xb-the steering will sometimes feel as if it just gives out. it only happens for about 2 seconds-but when it does it is very frightening. i have felt it happen twice now-the first time i was on a ramp and it felt as if the car was going to go straight off the ramp--but it kept curving as it should-then control of the steering was restored and i was fine. *tr | |||

| I have a rs 7.0 which has the body kit. very often, when i turn, especially if there is a passenger or extra weight in the car, it sounds as though the front wheels are scraping against the body of the car. of course, the dealer can't hear the sound at all. but that is what i expected. i just hope that when the tire blows because of wear, i don't get killed. the car is almost three months old and this has been happening since i bought it. | |||

| Returned accelerator problem to dealer was told they would test drive it to try to duplicate the sticking. then would contact toyota to see what toyota wanted to do about it. i feel toyota should be forced o buy back all of the vehicles they sold which are clearly potential death traps. toyota tells me there is no electronic problem, while at the same time admitting they have no idea whatsoever what is causing sticky gas pedals. their franchise to build and distribute vehicles in this country should be taken away, i don't care how many billions of dollars they lose. *tr | |||
