Tired of newsies trumpeting
Tired of newsies trumpeting the reliability of Toyota like paid reps. I do not find Toyota reliable. 4 wheel bearings replaced on 2003 Prius along with ABS module which failed resulting in no brakes (well, you had to stand on them). 2 hybrid battery modules failed as well as internal connections on the hybrid battery corroding and monitoring wires breaking. AC failed. Passenger side door lock failed. Front windscreen stress fractured. Apparently, not learning or maybe just liking the mpg we replaced it with a 2013. So far that has had a hybrid converter module fail, which was luckily replaced under recall. The map navigation no longer loads. Interior blower fan failed. Can't align rear tires because of solid beam axle so the tires wear unevenly (factory defect). Now we learn that the Gen 3 head gaskets fail because of poorly designed emissions controls. Not any more reliable than anything else. Many problems. I applaud the luck of those that get good ones but that happens with GM and Ford too (not so sure about Chrysler).
