Consumer Description

HEADLIGHTS INTERMITTENTLY GO OUT ON BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE OF MY 2006 PRIUS. PROBLEM WAS IDENTIFIED BY DEALERSHIP AS MANUFACTURER DEFECT. DEALERSHIP REMOVED AND REPLACED HEADLIGHTS AND COMPUTERS. THE TOTAL COST FOR THE REPAIR BY FRONTIER TOYOTA WAS $1,323.86. I REQUESTED 100% REIMBURSEMENT WITH TOYOTA. TOYOTA AGREED TO PAY FOR PARTS ONLY. TOYOTA IS AWARE THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE PRIUS BUT DOES NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY THAT THIS SAFETY ISSUE IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THE SAFETY ISSUE AND COST IS EXORBITANT. *TR
