    I have a 2012 bought in 2013 Prius v (lowercase v for the Prius v wagon) wagon that drivers side lock would work then not work with fob and now, I have to manually lock it and then all will lock electronically. When opening, all unlock except the drivers side..I have to reach in to manually unlock it. Seems kinda soon that problems like this and only ne door...again the drivers as others have had here the problem on older models.

    How many miles on the Prius v (lowercase v for the Prius v wagon)? Door actuators don't often fail until the car is well over 100k miles. Perhaps door glass was changed and whoever did it didn't put door back together correctly?

    Things fail. Not an expensive fix in any case. If that's the biggest repair in 70K miles, you're ahead of the game.
