Electrical System problem #1

When I tried to roll the passenger window down, a plume of smoke came out of the master control panel. At first, I thought I was imagining it, but the button froze into place. I took my scion into a dealership for 2 recall notice repairs (driver's seat railing and intake manifold assembly) and mentioned the window control panel problem and my concern as to whether or not there was a risk of a fire. The service tech said that my car was not part of the recall? I am concerned as to whether or not my car is going to catch on fire and am curious to know if this has been an ongoing problem with the newer model Scion Xds?.

Electrical System problem #2

About a year after I bought the car (at concord Toyota, concord, CA), my power locks started malfunctioning one by one. They fixed it because I was still on the factory warranty, but a year later, the front locks stopped working again. They were fixed. In 2013, the two front locks stopped working again. The problem is, now I don't have any warranty coverage and they want to charge me around $500 to fix each lock. Not only is it not fair because it's been something that's been happening continuously for years, but now the back door locks stop and start working at random all the time. I would appreciate it if you could help me with this issue.
