Every figure in the 2007 Toyota Prius factory service and repair manual was written against this exact year, engine and trim combination — the 1.5L four-cylinder hybrid unit Toyota coded 1NZ-FXE — so the clearances, torque values and service sequences you work to are the ones the factory published for this car, not close figures carried across from an adjacent model year.

Known issues on the 2007 Prius. Two recalls are on federal record for this model year. The first covers vehicle speed control at the accelerator pedal: the pedal can get stuck in the wide open position, which may result in very high vehicle speeds and make the vehicle difficult to stop. The second is a labeling defect — Southeast Toyota recalled passenger vehicles for failing to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 110, “Tire Selection and Rims”, and a driver may overload a vehicle as a result, which may increase the risk of a crash. Owners have filed 2,451 complaints against the 2007 Prius, and Toyota has issued 117 technical service bulletins.
Whether you are chasing an accelerator pedal or speed control complaint, confirming the correct tire and load information for the car, or working through a hybrid service interval, the manual holds you to Toyota’s own procedure and the specification set for this 2007 Prius.
