2013 Scion FR-S problems

Tl* the contact owned a 2013 scion fr-s. While driving approximately 25 MPH, the contact's vehicle crashed into the rear of a second vehicle. During the crash, the vehicle sustained severe damage to the front end; however, the air bag deflated with a four inch hole after deploying. The driver sustained facial and chest injuries, a fractured sternum, and a lumbar spine. Medical attention was received. A police report was filed. The vehicle was destroyed and towed.

After leaving a residence, getting onto the freeway with no issues for about 1/4 mile, suddenly upon getting about to 50 MPH, I felt a shimmy. I thought I had a flat tire. But I was smelling a burning smell pretty quickly. I thought it was from a polluted semi truck. But it got stronger. So, I decided to take the first exit another 1/4 mile up. I turned on hazards and slowed to 40 and exited. Upon stopping I turned off the car and inspected first the engine, seeing no smoke around it. I then inspected the tires.

I took my car in for j02 engine valve spring safety recall on jan 29th, 2019 at a toyota dealership. Took them a couple days, but when they finished, they said the car was good as new and I could drive it normally. 2 weeks of daily commute to work with no issues, then on feb 17, 2019, I was driving up highway 1 for a couple hours, as I came around a turn, I was going about 25MPH, I tapped the brake to slow down as the road was sloping downhill with two hair pin turns up ahead.

Takata recall 2,000 miles past warranty, the check engine and traction control lights came on and lost power. Not sure if it happened while I was stopped or in transient. It was early in the morning on my way to work and I had just stopped at a gas station to get a cup of coffee. Toyota changed out the computer free of charge but the problem is still existing. Which means it's an internal engine/ transmission issue. The right rear tail light collects condensation too.

I took my car in for a recall repair regarding replacement of the engine valve springs on 1/8/19. The car was ready for pickup two and a half weeks later on 1/25/19. After exactly two months, on march 8th my car began shaking and wobbling while I was driving on the freeway. When the check engine light turned on and I noticed my car began slowing down, I immediately pulled over to the side right side of the highway as the car shut off. After I tried turning it back on, the car would turn off after a couple seconds.
