2006 Scion Tc, the A/C on this car (still under warranty) stopped cooling. I took it to the Scion dealer I purchased the vehicle from, and they advised me that a pebble or rock had hit the condenser unit and caused a crack, allowing refrigerant to leak out. The repair will be over $1000, and I was advised that this is considered a road hazard which isn't covered under warranty. I believe (as many others do) that this is a design flaw, which should be covered under warranty.
