Why couldn't they call it the Aqua here too?

    I have had my Prius C 3 less than 2 months and I love it, but I have had problems with the dealership parts guys confusing it with the liftback 3 times already. The first problem was getting a new SKS fob, Then I found out that they put the liftback wiper blade on the back and it got stuck in the spoiler. Then I went to get wiper blades for the front and they tried to sell me the liftback ones there too. I had to take the counter man out to compare with the ones on my car to prove they were the wrong size. And every single part for the C had to be ordered! So far this has cost me FOUR EXTRA trips to the dealer with no end in sight.
    Why did Toyota force all this confusion on us! I can only imagine what Prius v owners go through.

    The parts guy sounds like he's an idiot. I have had my share of people who don't know what they are doing. Not on this car as I have only owned it for week. When I ordered tires for my previous vehicle, they were completely screwed up, I had to use their system and order them myself. So cheer up! At least you get amazing gas mileage so the only thing lost is time :p

    Give the parts guy the vin number, and then order you parts. Why are you needing wiper blades on a 2 month old car?
