IS F (2008-2014) :: New Headlight - Beam Pattern Not Right
So I finally got my car back after being repaired from the fender bender I was in, and I had to get a new right headlight but I just noticed that the beam pattern isn't right. I just picked up the car and brought it home so I'm not sure if this is a characteristic of a new headlight and bulb. I feel like they put in the wrong bulb or they didn't install it correctly?

I just get a hand of a brake blinkers module that when you connected parallel to the brake lights it will blinks and strobes like emergency vehicles. When brake is pressed, the brake lights blinks rapidly and strobes random pattern. It gives more visibility instead just stay on.

The small LCD display (Int temp, fan speed, etc.) in my Prius IV with Nav Package is very dark, read "unreadable" when sunlight is prominent in the car. This is so even with the panel rheostat turned all the way up to bright. Is this a faulty display or is there any work around if not?
View 8 RepliesPrius (2010-12) :: Dashboard Lights Suddenly Went Totally Dark
I just drove my 2 year old prius during the snowstorm for the first time. While parked, I turned the car on, headlights on, and tried to move the car. The gas engine already shut down during warm-up. Car was stuck in snow. I had to move back and forth on electrical only a few times before getting out.
Here is the question. After a second or third try in reverse, dashboard lights suddenly went totally dark, and would not turn on until headlights were off. I could not drive like that at night, so I stopped and googled it on my cell. Turns out the dimmer was all the way off.
But how???? I did not touch it. The car started just fine, everything working. Only after a few attempts to get of of the snow the dash went out? Is there something wrong with the electrical circuit? I did try to move the car very gently, without flooring the pedal.
Prius (2010-12) :: Warning Light Flashing Inside The Car In Driveway In The Dark
I've had my car for a couple of months, and noticed last night a warning light flashing in the car in the driveway in the dark. I got in the car and tried to identify the icon but couldn't- bad eyes, apparently, and it flashes too quickly for me to make it out. It immediately stopped when I turned the car on. I could find nothing in the manual.
View 3 RepliesPrius (Gen 2) :: Passenger SRS Only Works When Temperature Dips Below Freezing
When the temperature is above freezing, the Passenger Airbag light is always "Airbag Off" and the flashing red light does NOT engage, regardless of whether a passenger is sitting in the seat and regardless of whether the seat belt is latched.
When the temperature dips below freezing, the system works as expected:
No passenger: light is "Airbag"
Passenger with seat belt: light is "Airbag On"
Passenger with no seat belt: light is "Airbag On" with red flashing seat belt sign
I can't imagine the issue is related to a component inside the passenger compartment (the seat weight or latch sensors), as the temperature inside the vehicle is usually above 60 F. That said, are there any components outside the compartment (under the car or in the engine compartment) that could be causing this behavior? Is this a water freezing/unfreezing issue, caught in some wiring somewhere?
Prius (2010-12) :: Won't Get Any Headlight Alert?
So when I have any of the headlights on, and I then off my car and open the door, my Prius doesn't warn me that I've left anything on... Shouldn't my car beep at me to turn them off?

On my GIII Prius, if I leave the headlights on and power off the car they appear to still stay on.
Is there supposed to be a warning sound indicator?
Prius (2010-12) :: New DDM HID Turns Off Itself If Turn Headlight On
Just installed DDM HID 35w 5000K. But strange issue. If I turn on HID first before start the car, one side turns off by itself in few seconds every single time. However, HID (both sides) stay on fine everytime (so far ) if I start the car first then turn headlight on. Could it be bad ballast or else?

Purchased one owner Prius from Honda dealer May 2014 with 92000 miles.Now 2 months later 94000. Both service departments of Honda and a Toyota dealer said my car handles normally for a Prius.The car dips from left to right while driving at slow and highway speeds. It feels like a boat moving through water. The suspension was said to be good.Driving it feels unstable, like a Montero Sport or a stage coach. I wanted to do a lot of driving this summer, but this feels so uncomfortable.

I sometimes manually cut the headlights on during the day and I noticed that there is no bell or dinger that alerts me that they're on when the car is cut off. I assume the lights will cut themselves off after a period of time? Just concerned I might kill the battery if I don't notice I left them on.

Drove my car on Wednesday morning for about 5 minutes, when I parked and turned it off, sensed a really bad and strange smell but couldn't pinpoint if it was the car, or the parking garage at home (which is underground, locked), or outside. Dismissed it from my mind. Two hours later, drove the car to work (10 minutes) parked it in underground garage. Turned engine off. Coming from hood on the right side. Got out, thinking I would lift the hood and have a look but as I approached right side of car I could see flames shooting out from underneath the right headlight (could see the flames through the headlight). Took a bit of time to find water hose in the parking garage but finally got it out.
Car is a write off.... absolutely was not sabotaged, no arsonists, nothing ..... Toyota guy from Toyota place across the street walked over to have a look, said it was a total loss. Doesn't seem like Toyota is really concerned either! I was really shaken as I feared that there could be a chain reaction of all the parked cars going up in flames. Smoke was thick, people were choking... seems that other than getting a cheque from the insurance, there is nothing I can do to find out the cause of the fire. People keep saying in various forums that nothing is located on the right..that could catch on fire.
