2013 Toyota PRIUS C Electrical System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1415314
Internal NHTSA #	11034633
Manufacurer	Toyota Motor Corporation
Brand	TOYOTA
Model	PRIUS C
Model Year	2013
File date	02/10/17
Component	ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	There is a defect in the rear lens and body assembly, part number 81551-52a94 (right side) and corresponding part on the left side. A seam cracks and allows water into the lens assembly. Eventually, enough water accumulates to cover the brake light causing it to short. The toyota dealer stated that there was nothing that i could do but replace both assemblies. I have the old parts and have taken pictures. The seam on both assemblies facing is cracked at exactly the same point ... About mid-way closest to the rear hatch. My guess is that ice accumulated in the space and caused the assemblies to crack.
