My gen 3 (2011) Prius had a head gasket replacement in November 2022 which also
included water pump replacement , timing chain pulley, and all spark plugs replaced by my local Toyota dealer. everything now. runs smoothly , but it set me back to the total cost of $5400. I have 179000 miles ODO and was not expecting this to happen because of the Toyota brands reliability ratings. Now I recently got a hybrid check engine light and will replace the hybrid battery because I am not ready for a car payment for newer car. So the author is correct about gen 3 Prius engine problems after 100,000 miles I am disappointed and feel these motors where not designed with expected Toyota reliability.
