WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, THE MOON-ROOF/SUN-ROOF SHATTERED SPONTANEOUSLY. THE DAMAGE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE CAUSED BY ANY OBJECT STRIKING THE GLASS. I HAVE DASHCAM FOOTAGE OF THE INCIDENT, IN WHICH TWO DISTINCT POPS CAN BE HEARD WHEN THE GLASS SHATTERS. ADDITIONALLY, THE EXTENSION MECHANISM (TWO SUPPORTS ON THE SIDES OF THE GLASS) WERE FULLY EXTENDED. IT IS MY ASSUMPTION THAT ONE OF THE SUPPORTS FAILED AND FULLY EXTENDED, FORCING THE GLASS TO BEND AND ULTIMATELY PUT ENOUGH STRESS ON THE GLASS TO FAIL, AT WHICH POINT THE OTHER SUPPORT FULLY EXTENDED. PLEASE SEE ATTACHED PICTURES. IT APPEARS VIDEOS ARE NOT ABLE TO BE UPLOADED, BUT PLEASE CONTACT ME IF YOU WOULD LIKE THIS INFORMATION.

OIL CONSUMPTION!!! I'VE OWNED MY 2006 SCION TC FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS AND HAVE RECENTLY BEEN EXPERIENCING A HUGE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. IT DIDN'T PHASE ME AT FIRST, ALTHOUGH NOW I NEED TO SET MY ODOMETER TO ZERO AND REFILL MY OIL EVERY 800 MILES. I BELIEVE IT IS CERTAIN INTERNAL PARTS THAT ARE CAUSING THIS PROBLEM, SUCH AS THE PISTONS AND THE PISTON RINGS . I'VE NOTICED THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR A LOT OF SCION TC'S LATELY, WHICH HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF THROUGH AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM FOR THE MODEL YEARS OF 2007-2009. I'M TRYING TO PROVE THAT ISSUE IS ALSO AFFECTING THE 2006 MODEL YEAR TOO, AND WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE IT IF I COULD RECEIVE SOME HELP CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. I WILL UPLOAD A PHOTO OF AN OLD PISTON THAT SHOWS THIS EXACT PROBLEM.

ENGINE HAS SEVER OIL CONSUMPTION TO WHERE WE ARE ADDING A QUART OR MORE EVERY 1000 MILES OR SO IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. WORRIES ME TO WERE I CHECK EVERY WEEK JUST TO MAKE SURE THERE IS ENOUGH OIL. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THAT SORT OF THING. WHILE DRIVING OM STREETS OR HIGHWAYS, HAPPENS EVERY WHERE, AS YOU SHIFT AT A CERTAIN RPM (ABOUT 1500-2500-3000 ECT) THE CAR WILL HESITATE FOR A FEW SECONDS. WE ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS FROM THE A/C SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN THE SUMMER TIME BUT ONCE THE A/C IS OFF THE CAR STILL HESITATES. WE HAVE NOTICED WE ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WITH THIS ISSUES BUT WE ARE THE ONLY YEAR THAT IS REPORTING THEM. WHAT IS GOING ON WITH MY ENGINE AND FUEL SYSTEM?! PLEASE HELP!!!!
