2016 Toyota Prius Owner Comments

problem #4

Prius

  • 25,202 miles

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S

My 2016 Prius four touring with 25,202 miles is chewing up its tires. Specifically, it is chewing them up on the "inside" of the rear tires (that is, the tread of the rear tires closest to the center of the car is being worn off faster than the tread on the "outside" of the tires). The rear wheels are out of alignment in the camber by a negative 1.7 degrees "out" of where it should be (the top of the tire is "tilted in" toward the middle of the car 1.7 degrees from where it should be). The Toyota dealer service writer refuses to take ownership and is saying that there is no kit/repair to make a camber adjustment on the rear tires of the 2016 Prius cars. I just rotated my tires with 25,202 miles on 3.7.2020 and the tire depth on the rear tires is a 2/32 with the front 4/32 as O 3.7.2022. On 12.19.2019, with a mileage reading of 23,361the tire depth was 6/32 on the rear tires and 7/32 on the front.

Vehicle was sold without a spare tire or jack. Why does the government allow a car company to sell a vehicle without a spare tire and jack?

I had a blow out on the driver rear tire going down the interstate going approximately 70 mph. The tread completely separated from the sidewall. The tires were toyo nanoenergy A29.

If the tire pressure is decreased by the slightest amount the light will go on and stay on. If the temperature is cool the light will go on and stay on. I've brought it back to service 4 times during November and December of 2016. Their scan shows no fault. I purchased the Prius in February 2016 and didn't have this problem until November. The light may come on while driving or sometimes when the car is first started.
