2008 Scion xB 4dr Hatch
158-horsepower 2.4L I4 5-speed manual FWD
| 100500 mi US $440 |
Left rear wheel bearings went. Been making noise for a few months RIGHT after new tires installed. I thought I had a bad tire. Left rear hub assembly needed to be replaced. Toyota apparently has a National back-order right now. used Moog |
2008 Scion xB 4dr Hatch
158-horsepower 2.4L I4 4-speed shiftable automatic FWD
| 98000 mi US $1700 |
both rear hubs were making growling noises and had to be replaced |
| 145000 mi US $180 |
Passenger rear wheel bearing replaced due to excessive noise |
| 103000 mi | Electric steering ECM failed. Could barely turn steering wheel while driving. Very unsafe situation! Toyota had a TSB on issue but would not help. The dealer did at least discount the repair from $875 to $535 as a goodwill gesture. |
| 15000 mi | A binding/creaking sound on left front side when making a tight turn. Sound was coming from strut plate. Replaced both front strut plates. No more noise. |
| 42000 mi | Roaring noise in rear end, replaced left rear wheel bearing and hub. |
| 10000 mi | Replaced intermediate steering bar. Took 3 trips over 1 year to convince dealer. Dealer ordered part. Installed on 4th trip. Problem solved |
