2007 Toyota Prius 4dr Hatch
76-horsepower 1.5L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD
| 140000 mi US $1 |
Rear hatch lock not functioning. Removed rubber cover that was deteriorating and replaced. |
| 121000 mi US $9 |
Rubber on hatch release disintegrated and made the trunk hard to open. Apparently many 2007's got a bad batch of rubber.It melts and turns to a gooey substance that gets stuck in handle. I replaced the rubber piece. There should be a recall. |
| 72000 mi US $20 |
Trunk pistons were not holding trunk. |
| 127000 mi US $400 |
Repair gas tank filler cover. The release cable running from the inside of the car to the filler cover separated at the filler cover. The mechanic said it wasn't uncommon. |
| 171000 mi US $40 |
Replaced hatch door handle. |
| 170000 mi US $40 |

The pump on the inverter broke. The dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree. |
| 61000 mi US $55 |
Rear wiper fix. |
| 21300 mi US $355 |
Button to open hatch back was surrounded by rubber or some soft material and it was 'melting' and touching it got hands black. Had to replace entire latch mechanism. Should have been repaired at Toyata expense. Design flaw. |
| 40000 mi US $250 |
Hatch switch replaced due to defective rubber switch cover. Switch cover becomes gummy or melts when the weather is warm. |
| 50000 mi US $200 |
Bolts failed that held bottom body plates on while on highway. Front retainer and center body plate damaged and needed replacement. Susceptible to parking space dividers. |
| 123000 mi | Hybrid Battery failed at just under 122,000mi. Replaced under 10yr/150k warranty. Total time in service was 9yrs 11mos 1 day. Hybrid Battery replaced at no charge. |

Bottom shield came loose. |
| 51000 mi US $122 |
Tire pressure monitor/valve broke. |
| 83100 mi US $75 |
Rear passenger side seat belt will no longer retract. They could not fix it without replacing the whole assembly, which would have cost > $300. |
| 100200 mi US $125 |
Wire that opens gas tank cover was broken (cover would not close). |
| 143000 mi US $1 |
The loop on the hatch that is captured by the latch broke. There was a defect in the steel allowing both sides to shear off near where they attach to the mounting plate. I was able to weld it back together. |
