The 2025 Toyota Prius Plug-in has 2 recalls, the more serious being a rear door switch that can short-circuit when water gets inside, causing an unlocked rear door to swing open while the vehicle is moving.
Water intrusion into the rear door switch creates a short circuit that can trigger the door latch to release without warning, leaving a door open during travel. The second recall involves the optional Panoramic View Monitor system: a software error can cause the rearview camera image to freeze or go completely blank when the vehicle is shifted into reverse, cutting off the driver's view of what is directly behind the car.
