Scion tC
is.Though the tC was never rated for reliability by experts at JD Power or Consumer Reports, the car’s tendency to get recalled for repairs speaks volumes about its reliability. The Scion tC never had a year free of recalls, and the recalls were often for major issues, such as:
- Engine failures
- Brake hose ruptures
- Suspension issues
The brake hose issue plagued the brand for at least four years, and there was a recall for the 2016 model year, so be sure you’ve had your brake hose replaced. A rupture can lead to a complete loss of braking ability!
