    I have a 2010 prius. I bought the car used a month ago. at the time of purchase both parking lights were on when my headlight is turned on. Now it won't turn on unless I turn on my high beam. any ideas why?

    should I take it to Toyota dealer and have them take a look at it. It is certified preowned.

    thanks

    Has the car had front end collision damage at some time in the past?

    If the car is under warranty then I'd take it back to the dealers and get them to look at it. Obviously something isn't right.

    I replaced both bulbs and they are now working great.
    thanks all for the help.
