My 2010 Prius has out of the blue started burning oil last year, like it's going out of style.

It's a common problem with them. But otherwise, it's a very reliable car.

Yeah 2010-2015 all had that issue—or I should say it is far more common in that generation. In 2016 they finally fixed it and the fourth generation is really the best one, though the fifth might prove to be as good or better given enough time.
