8 recalls across 8 model years
The Toyota Prius Prime has 8 recalls covering 2019 through 2024 model years, with the most serious being a brake booster pump failure on 2019-2020 vehicles that can deactivate stability control and reduce braking assist, raising the risk of a crash.
The 2023-2024 model years carry several related recalls involving water intrusion into the rear door switches. When moisture enters the switch, it can cause a short circuit that allows an unlocked rear door to open unexpectedly while the vehicle is moving. Prior repair attempts under an earlier campaign did not fully resolve the issue, which is why additional repairs are required for vehicles already serviced. The 2023-2024 models also have a rearview camera software error that can cause the image to freeze or go blank when the vehicle is in reverse, reducing the driver's view behind the vehicle. A label issue on 2023-2024 vehicles shows an incorrect maximum cargo capacity value, which could lead to overloading.
On 2022 models, the engine control software can falsely detect an error and shut down the hybrid system entirely, cutting drive power while the vehicle is in motion.
