    Hello

    I am the party (luvmy2008prius) with a Prius that has turned 404,000 without any major repairs!

    I am considering purchasing a used extremely low mileage 2010 but watched a video on ebay about the major issues 2010's have with their valves. Don't know if I am allowed to say which site. All 5 generations were reviewed and problems (good & bad) were discussed. Can someone give me input into this. I would buy the car, but not if I am buying this problem.

    Many thanks for your upfront comments and suggestions. Stay well.

    Narcissist, without one this forum will be incomplete.

    Hi party, I am the nacho cheese dip. You’re greatest concern will be the HV battery since it hasn’t been on a regular charging cycle.
