My parents have 160K miles on their 2010 Prius. My dad is a mechanic and does the maintenance by the book*. The only repair he has done is replacing the rear calipers this last winter. That is a pretty common problem in Michigan. The road salt corrodes the pistons and they seize.
*Well not quite by the book. He is old school and believes in 3,000 mile oil changes. I've convinced him to only change the oil every 5,000 miles. (Toyota recommends every 10K miles) His Prius doesn't burn any oil.
