On top of this my USB port no longer works and my 12v port shuts off after about 10-30 seconds of use.
To me, this is a safety hazard. I used to own a restored 1978 280z without power steering, it's not terrible just kinda sucked for parking. For some reason when the power steering goes out on the FRS it's pretty difficult to turn even at speed. If for some reason I have to steer to avoid an object/car/person and I'm expecting this car to be operating at a certain level I can easily get into a wreck or seriously harm someone.

Obviously a problem that is not restricted to the steering but more likely a larger electrical issue. Not a blown fuse or it would all just simply not work and wouldn't work intermittently.
This is a huge safety issue and I would put some pressure on Scion to deal with it in a more timely manner. It must truly suck to be caught in a monopoly like you are there.
