    A 2010 Prius (garaged 90K miles) rear lower fender is separating on both sides. Assume this car has been hit from behind or suffered similar trauma.

    Question:
    1) Is this a frequent problem for older Priuses?
    2) Is the failure because of the method of attachment?

    Any lessons learned / remedy procedures (especially youTube videos) are appreciated. Thank you
