My Prius only has 20k miles on it and it&amp;#39;s not covered because they say scratches on the screen constitute damage.  The scratches were from my inlaws putting a Garmin on the screen after the fact.  You have to write your story on Yelp.  They knew within hours of me writing a bad review.  I don&amp;#39;t have qualms with writing a bad review as everything I wrote is true and their service sucks.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/1424525085156669453'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/1424525085156669453'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html?showComment=1256166901772#c1424525085156669453' title=''/><author><name>WoodenDuck</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02634388709482427960</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-1980119444989334838' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/posts/default/1980119444989334838' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-209532207191270070</id><published>2009-01-15T08:21:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-01-15T08:21:00.000-08:00</updated><title type='text'>I saw the MFD problem start a few months ago at 13...</title><content type='html'>I saw the MFD problem start a few months ago at 135,000 miles. I'm at my dealership today waiting for diagnosis and estimate. Tech says MFD needs replacement. My Prius is an early 2004 model with 142,000 miles now. This is the first real problem I have had.&lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;I did notice sluggish MFD response starting 6 months ago, but did not suspect a major probem would develop. Now the MFD, HVAC and radio are slow to initialize, and they all sometimes cut out. Seems like a loose wiring connection of some sort.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/209532207191270070'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/209532207191270070'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html?showComment=1232036460000#c209532207191270070' title=''/><author><name>Ken</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14346600643618439236</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-1980119444989334838' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/posts/default/1980119444989334838' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-3670869809829544028</id><published>2008-06-08T23:35:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-08T23:35:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>dv</title><content type='html'>dv</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/3670869809829544028'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/3670869809829544028'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html?showComment=1212993300000#c3670869809829544028' title=''/><author><name>Jose</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16653698132520210736</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-1980119444989334838' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/posts/default/1980119444989334838' type='text/html'/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-8662961617310956423</id><published>2008-06-08T23:34:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-06-08T23:34:00.000-07:00</updated><title type='text'>Hopefully your letter will wake them up and they s...</title><content type='html'>Hopefully your letter will wake them up and they start working out with us Prius owners. We 2004 Prius owners are the ones who gave all our faith in toyota and instead of buying a reliable with any known or in some instances without any defects we decided to trust them and give them a try. Also if you look everywhere the Prius 2004 owners are the ones who actually are promoting the Prius to everyone they know and probably the ones responsible for a lot of sales. This is a known flaw which should be addressed by toyota, after all new Hybrids are being made while we post this here and I bet it would be no trouble not buying toyota and going with a different brand. Toyota is a very good brand but what is the point of having a car if every time something breaks is not covered and it will cost you a fortune. &lt;BR/&gt;&lt;BR/&gt;Please post the letter as soon as they reply to you.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/8662961617310956423'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/1980119444989334838/comments/default/8662961617310956423'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html?showComment=1212993240000#c8662961617310956423' title=''/><author><name>Jose</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/16653698132520210736</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://bobcowart.blogspot.com/2007/05/prius-update-bad-news-about-my-prius.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1782754671342094996.post-1980119444989334838' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1782754671342094996/posts/default/1980119444989334838' type='text/html'/></entry></feed>
