One headlight on my car keeps shutting off, while the other is fine. I am able to "fix" the issue by turning my headlights off and then turning them on again. Dealers initially told me it was because the bulb burned out, but i replaced both at the same time, and it's always the driver's side bulb that "burns out." upon further review on public forums, it appears the bulb is perfectly fine and there's some type of…

For the past 6 months my left headlight will randomly go off. One time after it turned off the right light also extinguished. I was driving at night each time this happened . I quickly turned off the light switch and turned it back on and the headlights came back on. I was driving on local city streets when this happened and was not turning.

After the car has been parked for awhile, the dashboard was completely black. The car powered on, but there was no speedometer, no fuel display, and no odometer. The car will drive and gas engine and hybrid system works as usual, but there are no power steering, the turn signals do not work, and the wiper does not work. After driving for 5 to 15 minutes, the dash would light up and car drives like normal again and…

The right headlight had to be replaced. It would turn off and if i turned the lever on and off while i was driving it would come on for a while. On a dark night it was dangerous. I replaced the right headlight and it cost a total of $229.55 which i thought was outrageous. Now the driver's side headlight has gone out too. I might have to drive it only in daylight unless i can find a cheaper way to replace the…

After we had it fixed about 2 months later we got pulled over and given a warning to get it fixed. We did so again and again with no solution. Since our last time the dealership has advised us to go to the toyota dealership but there telling…

When driving the driver side headlight will go out. When you turn them back on the headlight comes on just for a minute or two. There have been several people complaining about the issue and is very unsafe. Toyota needs to fix the problem before someone gets hurt especially at night.

I have been having problems for about a year now with my prius 2007 when i apply the brakes. The car stutters when it changes from hybrid to gas. Serviced only by toyota. When i brought the car in for a recall i asked them to fix the problem . They could not identify the problem and called in a specialist and subsequently was told that this is typical wear on a car this old (5 years, 59,000 miles). This was from a…
