2016 Toyota Prius 4dr Hatch

95-horsepower 1.8L I4 Hybrid CVT FWD

28520 mi The driver seat lowered it position gradually over a couple of weeks without even touching the levers. Inspected by dealer, they replaced the high adjustment mechanism under warranty. It has been working fine ever since. 
24000 mi Headlights were always out of adjustment and oncoming traffic often flashed their high beams at me. 
28000 mi

US $1000
Windshield cracked because of heat. Noticed tiny crack in the windshield, which grew into a foot-long crack. Seems like a defect because many other Prius drivers have reported windshield issues/cracking not involving rocks or accidents.
