2006 Scion Xa water leaks under tweeter on drivers side door. Second complaint the headlights are horrible in fog you can see beams of light going straight up into the air causing a blinding effect because of poor headlight housing design. It's dangerous and I have made sure the headlights are aimed properly. Last complaint the factory tires hydroplane very easily making the car almost impossible to drive in the rain safely they need to get rid of the Goodyear factory tires. I was forced to buy new yokohama tires to correct the problem without reimbursement which I would like considering the car has 11 thousand miles on it.
