There are ambulance chaser's out there advertising suing regarding HID failures. It's just good business. I love the HID lights, but I do wish they were more reliable. | |

Friends: 0 | I was told by Piercey Toyota of San Jose that headlamp bulbs are not covered under warranty. I paid $545 ($314 for the part and 205 for labor) to have the bulb replaced at about 48K. Funny how both bulbs are on equal amounts of time but the other bulb is still going strong at 75K. |

Friends: 0 | Toyota paid for the replacement of both our headlights in March 08. Last week the drivers side went out, I paid to have it replaced....$300...called Toyota. They offered to pay for the replacement of the passenger side when it goes out. Today it went out....go figure. -------Here's the important part---Toyota said the bulbs they are now using are "permanent, wont need replacing anytime soon." She said these new bulbs are different, and wont "create problems with the computer on the Prius". |
