    I am just wondering where all of you find out about the recalls or toyota fixes. I know some of you say you got them in the mail. Is there another place online I can look?

    To see recall filings in the USA, start with this page from the NHTSA and select the appropriate choices (start with type=vehicle).

    You will see the filing that Toyota made to the government, but not the Toyota owner letter or dealer instructions.

    Removeum's link appears to include all Toyota cars. Aforkosh's link only shows recalls, not TSBs. This matters because there are things they will fix free if you complain, but, not being safety issues, they won't send you a letter.

    To find out about all issues with Prius, visit this site regularly. Someone will post pretty much everything.
