At only 70,000? What kind of abuse could cause this? Or is it likely to just be a defective unit?

The only other Yaris that I have ever heard of with a failed torque converter was one that was totaled in a crash and then rebuilt. The second owner experienced the failed converter shortly after taking ownership.
