In that 123k miles I've only had to replace the water pump (just started making noise last week, never leaked and never stranded me) and the power steering pump (developed a small leak at 200k).
Pros: ridiculously reliable

The inverter water pump is a fairly common failure on the second gen Prius. The pump runs anytime the car is on, and it just wears out.
Pros: common failure
Cons: wears out
Vehicle:
Toyota Prius
That looks like the water pump but I can be wrong. Also, there is no dipstick for the transmission anymore. Depending on the engine, there is a drain bolt on the side of the transmission on the driver side I believe near the drivetrain.
How many miles do you have? Its probably time to change the water pump if it's making noise and if it is, it needs to be replaced before it causes a whole world of hurt to your wallet.
Cons: making noise
Vehicle:
Toyota Camry
Water pump 1 failed during the original warranty. Water pump 2 failed just outside of the new extended warranty for them I think I was at like 101,000 miles. Water pump 3 has now failed. I think im at like 110,000. Im really sick of being stranded in the middle of the night after work and Im sick of paying over $$$ for this obvious problem that everyone knows is a problem with these cars. I cant replace water pumps on average every 3 years. This isnt normal. Im 40 years old and have had many, many cars and 2 work trucks. I have never has a water pump fail on any car ever other than this one.
Cons: repeated failures, high cost
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
Mileage: 110000 km

Just be aware that B9’s are subject to water pump failures which can lead to the engine overheating. For months (Since March) I’ve noticed a “Whistling noise” coming from the engine bay while driving. Took it in to get it looked at (non Audi dealer) and was told it was normal. Drove it and drove until one day the car told me I had no coolant… that’s odd. Go buy coolant and keep driving. Now the car overheats and spits out all the coolant. Now it’s making sense. Either a combination of bad TStat sensor & water pump or just bad water pump. The fact that it never told me the coolant was hot the first time is spit out all the coolant leads me to believe both components are bad.
Cons: premature failure, overheating, whistling noise, coolant loss
Vehicle:
Audi S5
Had mine replaced last month before it broke again. The component that failed was the gasket for me then the pump failed and wanted money.
Cons: broke again, gasket failed, pump failed
