GM Inside News Forum - View Single Post - Autoweek: Scion blames tC problem on driver, not car

My 300C had a vibration problem. It only occurred at 55-58mph, and only in top gear, only at a certain throttle position, and only at a certain rpm. It was annoying since it all happened to be a frequently used speed/throttle position/rpm/gear.

Chrysler didn't tell me to simply not drive at that RPM. Rather, they replaced much of my exhaust system with newly re-engineered components to correct this rather minor annoyance.

Props to Chrysler for that. Not so much for Toyota/Scion.
