Bright led headlights isn't the issue just with my prius prime but with almost all new vehicles on the road that i presume have led lights. The lights are so bright that it bothers the driver of the oncoming vehicle or traffic. I face that issue while driving and can imagine the same with the driver of the oncoming vehicle. There are instances when drivers flash their headlights asking to use low-beam while i am already using the low-beam light setting. Last night 3/6/2018, an irritated drivers just brushed off my car on a county road thinking that i am not responding to his flashing light signal or ask to use low-beam on my car. I see excessive bright lights on newer cars as a safety issue while driving.
Head restraint (head rest).pushes head forward. Causes neck/back discomfort. Head striking head restraint on rough road feels like a concussion!long drives are miserable. Seat adjustments fail to overcome the issue. 5'3" woman. I had a prius 2006 and it was just fine. This prius seat is so uncomfortable i might sell it.
Car has loud continuous creaking/squeaking noise from left rear of the car. Sounds like it is coming from the suspension or body flexing when driving. It occurs when turning and reversing out of parking spaces. Also happens when car is going uphill and downhill and on winding roads. Driver seat also squeaks when in a certain position. Squeaking/creaking from rear left side of the car can be dangerous if coming from the wheel area or suspension.

The windshield of our 2017 prius prime sustained damage while traveling on a highway. The stone was pea sized and should not have cracked the windshield at the speed of 50mph.

Summary: have owned my prius prime for eight months and have needed to repair one windshield chip, replace my windshield once, and currently have another crack that cannot be repaired. Details: purchased my prius prime dec 10, 2017. On dec 20, 2017, got a chip in my windshield while driving to work along the local highway and was able to get it repaired same-day. In june 2018, got another chip in my windshield and the crack spread beyond repair almost immediately. Started the process to have it replaced and it took approximately six weeks and three appointments with safelite before they had the correct windshield with the correct parts. According to safelite, toyota had changed the design of the windshield and the new design was on backorder. Paid my $500 deductible for this replacement. On august 8, 2018, just a few weeks after replacing the windshield, i got another chip that also spread beyond repair immediately. As of this writing, i have not yet replaced the windshield for the second time. After doing research, i found there is a class action lawsuit, filed in march 2018, related to these defective windshields.attached are receipts from safelite showing the chip repair, payment of my deductible, and pictures of the current crack.
Noticed two small cracks in the windshield, center area close to bottom of windshield. Did not notice sound or sight of an impact, but two days later, cracks had spread left and right about 14 inches either side of original site of cracks.
Traveling at approximately 35 mph, a small rock thrown up by oncoming traffic hit the lower left edge of the windshield, a large crack extending more than halfway acrossthe drivers side windshield appeared.this appears to be a common issue with newer toyota hybrids. Toyota dealership has quoted $1500 to replace windshield and re-calibrate safety equipment.
I have 9150 miles on my car. Going 80mph on the highway my right rear tire blew out. The tires are toyo nanoenergy a29. The tire blew out on the side of the tire facing the car. I did not hit anything. Toyota refused to pay for the tire even though they are still under warranty. They even charged me for labor.
