This Problem Across All Years
My issue is that I was never notified and I just so happened to look up out of curiosity and I’m upset that something bad could have possibly happened.

ITS A TAKATA RECALL. THE CAR WAS MAKING A SCREECHING NOISE WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT. AT FIRST I THOUGHT I HAD TO DO SOMETHING WITH THE BRAKES BUT THEN WHEN I WAS DRIVING IT STALLED ON ME AND DIDN'T WANT TO WORK. THE ENGINE TURNED OFF ON ME MANY TIMES WHEN I WOULD TURN IT ON

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO PUMP GAS, THE INTAKE LINE BACKS UP AND TRIGGERS THE SECURITY SWITCH ON THE GAS PUMP. I WAS TOLD THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CHARCOAL CANISTER. UPON REVIEW OF SOME FORUM POSTS, IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE ON THE EARLY 2013 FR-S'S. TOYOTA NEEDS TO ACCEPT ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THIS. THE DEALERSHIP IS TRYING TO CHARGE ME OVER $1,700 TO FIX THE ISSUE.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED MAJOR PROBLEMS FOLLOWING THE VALVE SPRING RECALL ON THE SCION FR-S. APPROXIMATELY 1 MONTH FOLLOWING THE RECALL WHICH WAS COMPLETED IN MARCH, MY VEHICLE BEGAN EXPERIENCING A VIBRATION, A LOUD RATTLING SOUND, AND AN ENGINE KNOCK. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT COMPLETED THE RECALL TO HAVE THEM INSPECT IT. THE DEALERSHIP TRIED TO GIVE ME THE RUN AROUND, RON HUBBARD TOYOTA IN GALLATIN TN, EVENTUALLY I FOUGHT WITH THEM AND GOT THEM TO INSPECT IT. AFTER OVER A MONTH OF CALLING AND FIGHTING WITH THEM AND GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A CRACKED FLEX PLATE CAUSING THE PROBLEMS AND TRIED TO CHARGE ME 1500$. AFTER MUCH FIGHTING AND CONTACTING TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS AND THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS PERSISTENT ENOUGH THAT THEY COVERED IT. BY NOW I HAD BEEN WITHOUT A VEHICLE FOR A MONTH AND HALF. I FINALLY GOT THE CAR BACK ABOUT TWO WEEKS AGO AND DROVE IT ONE TIME ALMOST 200 MILES TO RUN SOME ERRANDS. WELL THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCE THE SAME ENGINE RATTLE AND KNOCK BUT MUCH WORSE. I LIMPED THE VEHICLE BACK HOME. WHEN I STARTED IT UP FRIDAY TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, IT WAS MUCH WORSE TO THE POINT THAT IT SOUNDED LIKE THE ENGINE WAS GOING TO FALL APART AND A VERY STRONG BURNING ODOR BEGAN TO EMIT FROM THE CAR. I WAS WORRIED FOLLOWING READING ABOUT OTHER PROBLEMS SO I IMMEDIATELY TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND CONTACTS MY INSURANCE COMPANY WHO TOWED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. THIS HAS BEEN THE WORST EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER DEALT WITH.

I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A RECALL REPAIR REGARDING REPLACEMENT OF THE ENGINE VALVE SPRINGS ON 1/8/19. THE CAR WAS READY FOR PICKUP TWO AND A HALF WEEKS LATER ON 1/25/19. AFTER EXACTLY TWO MONTHS, ON MARCH 8TH MY CAR BEGAN SHAKING AND WOBBLING WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND I NOTICED MY CAR BEGAN SLOWING DOWN, I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE RIGHT SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AS THE CAR SHUT OFF. AFTER I TRIED TURNING IT BACK ON, THE CAR WOULD TURN OFF AFTER A COUPLE SECONDS. I GOT THE CAR TOWED BACK HOME AND CONTACTED TOYOTA. THEY DID NOT PROVIDE A TOW TRUCK SO I HAD TO TOW IT IN FOR THEM TO INSPECT IT. IN THE FIRST UPDATE, THEY TOLD ME IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE LUBRICATION ON THE SIDES OF THE ENGINE. DURING THE SECOND AND FINAL UPDATE THEY HAD A SECOND TECH COME IN FOR INSPECTION AND CONCLUDED IT WAS AN INTERNAL ENGINE FAILURE. I AM NOW IN WORSE SITUATION THAN BEFORE AND I FEEL LIKE I AM BEING CHARGED TO FIX SOMETHING THAT WAS NOT BROKEN IN THE FIRST PLACE. NOT TO MENTION THE ESTIMATE TO FIX AND INSTALL A BRAND NEW ENGINE WILL COST UP TO $11,000. I AM CURRENTLY AWAITING FOR A RESPONSES FROM CORPORATE.
