I keep hitting the darn thing....

 

Not me. I've used it a couple times for the universal signal, you at the end of a race. But not other than that.

 

No problems here.

 

never understood why people always hit their hazards after winning a race. it's pretty obvious that the guy knows you beat him if you are in front. hitting your hazards will just tell everyone around that area that you just raced someone and if a cop is around he will pull you over. i have guys in the freeway passing me on the fast lane and hitting their hazards demonstrating a proper "ricer fly-by".

 

i never knew that was the universal sign to an end of a race... i always thought when they did that... that they wanted to race

 

u must be really tall if your hitting it with ur leg.

 

lol I hit it all the time too

 

i used to hit it when i'm changing the volume...

 

ok...now i'm very curious. where is the hazard button located on the tc?

 

I don’t have a problem with it, but I'm extremely curious as to how those of you that do accidentally hit the button do so. How exactly do you brush up against it? Wait, no, maybe I don’t want to know because I might start sub-consciously doing the same thing. lol

Oh, and RSX Freak, if you go to Scion's website, and check out the tC gallery, there is a picture of the center console. Its the 5th from the left, on the bottom row. The hazard lights button is the tall slender button on the far left of the center console, next to the HVAC switches.

 

It is a big pushbutton right by the stereo on the edge of the console peice. It is kinda easy to hit and it turns on easily... but its a minor thing i guess :-) I too love those "ricer flybys". I at least get a good laugh at those guys, thinking they are racing you when you are just driving down the road.

 

I think its a great location!

Tho I have to agree sometimes I accidently hit it
when I'm not paying attention

 

Did that last week on a honda civic in calcutta, oh

 

haha...yeah, i get a laugh out of it too when they do that, but sometimes they take it overboard and keep on doing it. so that's when i just downshift to 3rd and toy w/ him by staying right next to him the whole time he's punching it and just point and laugh till i finally decide to just floor it and leave him wayyyy back there.

 

haha i keep hiting it too and with my knee. mostly wen i use cruise control i bring my legs back and sometimes up and i accidentally hit the hazards

not so tall. 6 ft

 

I wouldn't bring my foot back. You never know what can happen. Just be careful.

 

I second that...I mean for a long drive do it but only for a couple of seconds but not longer than 10 secs. just my 2 cents

 

Yeah I've hit it a few times as well trying to change the volume/scrolling through songs. I rest my hand on that edge & my palm sometimes hits it. I felt bad cuz the people behind me slow way the hell down after a few blinks.

 

same here

 

That's my 'taunt' button after someone tries to cut me off. I like it there.
