 I bought a Prius 8 months ago to save fuel but it has been the biggest mistake I ever made.A few months ago my wife hit a truck tire retread on the highway and the right front of the car shattered in pieces never had that happen in 35 years of driving NEVER.It cost $1250 to fix and a month later a small animal ran out in front of us I think it was araccoon the critter lived but it caused more front end damage NEVER had that happen. Toyota fixed it for free said it should have happened REALLY?.Now the windshield is cracked; the build quality in this thing is horrendous can't believe Toyota put their name on it.If you are thinking of buying a Prius DON'T.
