5/5 Overall
NHTSA 5-Star Safety Rating
The 2025 Toyota Prius has two recalls, the more serious being a rear door switch that can short circuit after water intrusion and allow an unlocked rear door to swing open while driving.
The second recall affects models equipped with the optional Panoramic View Monitor system, where a software error can cause the rearview camera to freeze or go blank when the vehicle is in reverse, reducing the driver's ability to see what is behind the car while backing up.
