None, have not taken it in. Having intermittent issues with xB not starting/turning over. Dealership will not do anything until they can be shown problem. Usually turn key off, wait 30 secs and try again.

Starting issues continue & Scion cannot find problem (had it a week). Dealership agreed to make me deal to exchange this xB for a new xB due to starting issues I kept having. Thank you to SMART MOTORS Scion!

Just an update. Technology was to blame for the starting issues with my first xB. I found out it was most likely my new cell phone causing interference & that in-turn caused the car not to start.
