Buying a used 2023 Toyota Prius? Check these 4 recalls first
The 2023 Toyota Prius has 4 recalls in this group. The rear-door opening recalls are the standout items, alongside a rearview camera that may freeze and an accessory weight label that may contain incorrect numbers. NHTSA lists 21 owner complaints, which are unverified reports, with 1 crash and 1 injury reported. Electrical systems have 5 listed complaints, while tires, power train, and latches/locks/linkages each have 3. Door remedy records and any history of latch trouble merit review.
Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify both rear-door recall remedies and ask about latch failures.
- Confirm camera remedy completion and check for image freezing.
- Check the accessory weight label, tire condition, and drivetrain repair history.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Toyota dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
