WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY AND OUR INTENTION IS TO EXIT THE VEHICLE, THE ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCKS INTERMITTENTLY DO NOT WORK AND CAUSE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS TO BE LOCKED INSIDE THE CAR. CANNOT MANUALLY UNLOCK THE CAR FROM THE INSIDE, BUT RATHER, HAVE TO OPEN THE WINDOW, REACH OUTSIDE THROUGH THE WINDOW AND INSERT KEY IN THE OUTSIDE DOOR LOCK, AND THEN CAUSE UNLOCK FROM THE KEY OUTSIDE. PUT ASIDE THE FACT THAT IF WE DROPPED THE KEY OUTSIDE WHILE REACHING THROUGH THE WINDOW FROM THE INSIDE, WE WOULD BE WROUGHT WITH MORE PROBLEM - THE PRIMARY CONCERN IS THAT WE CANNOT ESCAPE THE VEHICLE IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY DUE TO THE DOOR LOCK PROBLEM.

WHILE OPENING REAR HATCH THE HANDLE PULLED OFF. NO UNDUE PRESSURE WAS USED, IT LITERALLY JUST PULLED OFF INTO MY HAND AS I ATTEMPTED TO SIMPLY OPEN THE DOOR. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR YEAR & MODEL SCION , THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. SCION/TOYOTA REFUSES TO REPLACE THE PART WITHOUT A SUBSTANTIAL CHARGE.

ELECTRIC DOOR LOCKS HAVE INCREASINGLY BECOME A PROBLEM. FIRST, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE STOPPED WORKING AND NOW HAS TO BE MANUALLY LOCKED AND UNLOCKED. THEN THE SAME HAPPENED TO THE PASSENGER SIDE REAR, WHICH HAS TO BE LOCKED AND UNLOCKED MANUALLY. FINALLY, THE DRIVER'S DOOR HAS ON THREE OCCASIONS, LOCKED ME IN, FORCING ME TO ROLL DOWN THE WINDOW AND USE MY KEY TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE. I'VE NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN W/ ANY OF THE OTHER VEHICLES I'VE OWNED. *TR
