ABS, parking brake, traction control, vertical stability lights came on and nose in the car. In same time completely disable ABS and vertical stability systems. Lights disappeared later for a week and came back on. Over the time this cycle appears more frequently sometimes before lights appear I lost ability to brake a vehicle till I fully release a brake pedal. Brought to Toyota dealer they said I have to change 2 rear hub assembles, because of sensors, some corroded wires and computer. Their estimate was almost 15% of the price of band new car. I had to give my car to my relative who works for Volvo dealer. One of my rear wheel bearing were bad we replace with genuine Toyota part. While we repair we saw wire connection which goes to rear sensor were corroded and sensor connection were also corroded because of water damage which can leak though this type of connection. The hub we had replace of amount of corrode hub connection broke. New hub did not fix the problem so another sensor is also corrode even if the wheel bearing is good. One more thing the ABS sensor is a part of hub assembly and could not be replace itself. I talk to Toyota representative and she said all those fixes are out my pocket. Even if I am original owner another problem I have the vehicle it locks itself. Before I thought kids playing with keys but few times happen when keys in my hand, I open the car and it keeps lock itself for quit amount of times. One time it locks with keys inside the car on 90 degree day with baby on board. No police were involved because inside the car was older child who can unlock the car manually.

The vehicle was taken to the dealership for each failure, however the contact was informed that none of the failures could be reproduced or serviced.

On 12/08/09 I took my 09 Scion xd (your form does not have xd option) into hoselton for the recall regarding the braking system. Two days later (12/10/09), I am driving home and approaching a turn off of route 104 travelling about 35 miles per hour (a 55 mph road) when. I had slowed down from a top speed of 45 mph, blowing snow and traffic was slow. I go to hit my brakes - I have no brakes, the pedal goes to the floor. I pump the brakes a eventually get a rough (da, da, da) grab, this combined with down shifting allows me to take my turn. I called hoselton and they will see me asap. However, I could get no straight answer about whether or not it was safe to drive my vehicle. I was told "I you (as in me) don't think it's safe then you should have it towed." At my expense. Please provide me any information on the true safety of my cars braking system. And what action I may take if the braking system is not safe.

I purchased my 2009 Scion xd on December 30, 2008. On January 4, 2009, my brakes froze up and I wasn't able to drive my car, it wouldn't budge because the brakes were frozen. I immediately called the dealership where I purchased my car 5 days earlier, markquart Toyota in eau claire wi, and spoke to the service manager. He said that there wasn't anything he could do because it wasn't a factory defect. I couldn't go to work that day and my step father, a retired mechanic had to take off my tires and thaw my brakes with a hair dryer... then 10 months later, I get the recall notice for the brake intake manifold! later on in this report I will select Scion Xb because xd isn't a choice.
