Nice car at first then it hits you. Put just the rear windows down and the vortex sucks your eardrums out. Scion say that is normal in all cars. We all know that is not ture. Set the crusie contol on a long flat road and watch it speed up on it own. Scion claims that normal for all cat as well. Brakes have to be pumped to get it stop with out a jerk. Also listen as it down shifts and hear the clunk. Oh ya the windows rattle and the plastic comes lose as well.

Very reliable, great daily driver, easy entry and exit all four doors. Still a great buy! No failures of any kind. To paraphrase a non-car ad, "You just get in the car and drive it."

This is my 3rd Scion xB!

I found this gem with only 15000 miles in 2022. Now at 37000 miles it is such a great car for road trips and gardening. Very easy to get in and out for those with disabilities. My late Mom had a 2008 Scion xB she bought after retiring. She became ill with dementia and this car was such a Godsend.
