There are problems with noisy brakes due to calipers on new /used scions like mine. I wish Toyota would test their vehicles a lot more. A little search on Google showed forums of people complaining about this problem. Consumer reports have also shown that this car is not worth buying, but I have already bought it, used. It looks nice, and that's why I bought it. I wish I did my homework first, as this is the first time Toyota has disappointed me personally - I never owned a failing Prius because the Prius looks ugly - but now I'm sure I am not buying another Toyota product again. Sayonara, Scion.
