Equipment problem #1

I have newish wheels and tires. Last year I took my car into les schawb to get an alignment done on my car thinking that is what the problem was. The guy afterwards told me he fixed it as well as he could but wondered if I had hit something in the back and that's all he told me. My steering wheel shakes back and fourth rapidly when I am coming to a stop. My car can not drive straight at all either while I'm on the rode. It will pull to the left so I turn it the opposite way just a tiny bit and it pulls my car the other way very hard and it is very scary and dangerous to drive.

Equipment problem #2

We own a 2008 Scion Tc and in the winter this car gets excessive snow and ice build up in the wheel wells and this becomes a safety issue when trying to turn. I am wondering if there has been any recalls for this car for this issue, the plastic used in the wheel wells seems to hold the snow and ice rather then falling off. Is their anything that you know of that could be done to remedy this issue? I have spoke with other scion owners and they have the same problem. Please reply with any suggestions or if their is a recall for this problem. Thank you,.

Equipment problem #3

I was simply trying to open my trunk when the latch handle broke off !.

Equipment problem #4

I was opening my trunk and the handle latch and light case fell right off. I am not a very strong individual so how this would happen to me completely stumps me. Since this incident I have noticed this exact problem on more and more Scion Tc's. I believe this is a structural body issue that the company should address.

Equipment problem #5

Trunk broke off while opening vehicle. I am a 115lb female, seriously lacking the strength to break a well made car. Dealership refuses to fix defect without charge.
