The hybrid battery on my wife's Prius failed at 90xxx miles, just within the warranty for a 2006. The inverter pump failed long before that, also warranty. The ABS controller failed outside warranty, not hybrid specific but the dealer quoted something like $1800 to replace it. We bought a used one on eBay for $1xx and had it installed by a local(ish) shop that had done it before for another $3xx. Otherwise it has been good, it is currently around 130K miles. Seems to be hard on tires, or maybe it is my wife's driving...
