Automatic Transmission Problems of Toyota Scion Xb

Defective brakes or related problem with 2008 Scion Xb model. When vehicle comes to a stop, a loud, low/downward pitched sound occurs and it feels like either the brakes are grinding or something related to the drive train is having a problem. This is an intermittent problem, but occurs most often after the car has sit idle for awhile. Toyota technicians drove the car for 2 days and said they experienced/heard the problem, but were not sure what it was or how to fix it. They lubed the front brake glide pins and adjusted shim pan and charged me $120 even though the car is under warranty. Unfortunately that did not fix the problem and I am worried that the car braking system may fail while I am driving the car.

I drive a 2009 scionxb. At least six times since I bought it in late 2008, I have had trouble with sudden unintended acceleration. At all times the carwas moving less than 30 miles an hour. It occurred once while slowing down for a light about to go green. I still made a soft hit on the car in front. A second time it happened while easing up to the immigration booth on the queenston-lewiston bridge to canada. I again made of soft hit on the car in front. Twice after that while I was going under twenty mph it suddenly accelerated but I was able to stomp the brake hard enough to stop it. I did not slip off the brakes, although I was initially willing to accept that responsibility. Last month I took my car to where I bought it, hoselton auto mall in east rochester, NY. I was told that the mechanics had driven it twice and found nothing wrong. I was given the impression that I was an hysterical female though no one came out and said it. And this model has not been reported to be in need of recall byv Toyota. I have to drive it. I can't afford to take the loss of selling it and the dealership made me feel that it was nothing within their venue, so it must be my fault. I've been very luck but I have also become more than a little scared. I want to be on record with your department if, god forbid, anything else of this nature occurs.

Sometimes when I need quick response power from the engine it doesn't not have power to accelerate. I have to step on the accelerator a few less than full and the vehicle run like a turtle and after 4000 rpm the power start to come. This is a problem at intersections, traffic lights when I really are a low speed car at traffic when start to run. Also the automatic transmission change up to overdrive at 35 mph too quick getting worst the acceleration when you are normal driving. Is not "check engine" indication but one automotive mechanic after he drive says than the engine have a bog problem too lean fuel mixture. When he turn off the a/c the problem is less he says is because the idle control valve don't by pass air at throttle and it's less air getting at the engine without tps registration.

Vehicle has transmission problems. It would rev up but not shift until I let off the gas. After letting off the gas, it would jump into gear. This happened after almost 2 years old and 30,000 miles.

I have had many problems with the transmission and the dealer has not repaired it.
