2004 Scion xA review from North America
"Great buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far the CD player skips the songs on any CD. I do not know why, other than that just regular maintenance. The dealer said I need new belts. I guess it has 46K miles on it, so normal wear and tear.
General comments?
Very reliable. Great gas mileage. Engine is loud. The automatic shifting is sluggish. Lot of space. Rear 60/40 split. I can carry my Dahon folding bikes. The car can easily get dirty on the front. Some plastic covering on the passenger side came off.
Overall a good commute car and more a small family. I have also had 5 people with tons of stuff in this car for a 800 mile trip. Performed flawlessly with A/C on high the whole time. The gas mileage was still pretty good.
So go ahead become a Scion Xa. I think the most practical out of the Xb and Xc.
