i think so and if you like I would be the first person to put it on my XB. Maybe you could sponsor my car with you product. I drive a ton of miles in the Northeast about 50,000 a year and millions would see you sticker and product.

This is what they found. Weld problems and failiure in the lower A-pillar area caused by stress. This develops at around 700-1000 miles, depending on road driving and terrain.
THEY COULD NOT FIX IT.
Spoke to dealer service manager .
THIS IS A MAJOR ENG. DEFECT I BELIEVE. GOT NO HELP FROM SCION ON THIS
THIS IS HOW TO TEST IT.
OPEN DRIVERS DOOR.
HAVE SOME PUT THEIR EAR TO THE OUTSIDE A-PILLAR WHILE SOMEONE ELSE MOVES THE DRIVERS DOOR UP AND DOWN. LIFT THE DOOR FROM THE BOTTOM UP AND YOU WILL HEAR IT.
CONCLUSION, NO MORE SCION XB, gone.. no more Scion, no more Toyota for me. Their quality is going down for sure RUSHING CARS TO MARKET TO SOON. While I like the new XB, there are changes that I think are needed.
PS, the 4 speed trans has gotta go and the car runs super hot too.
