Consumer Description

MY 2004 PRIUS LOST POWER WHEN I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 65-70 MILES PER HOUR ON 2/21/05. I HAD ELECTRIC POWER FOR A FEW MINUTES SO THAT I COULD PULL OFF AT AN EXIT. ALL THE WARNING/CAUTION LIGHTS CAME ON. THE KERN TOYOTA DEALERSHIP IN WINCHESTER VA HAD MY CAR TOWED IN. THEY KEPT THE CAR OVERNIGHT. THEY SAID THAT THEY REPROGRAMMED MY COMPUTER AND THE CAR WAS FINE. THEY OFFERED NO OTHER EXPLANATION OR POSSIBLE FUTURE CONCERNS. I REPORTED THIS TO TOYOTA MANAGEMENT THIS MORNING AND HAVE A CONFIRMATION # IF NEEDED. I JUST SAW THE ARTICLES WHERE THEY NOTED 33 OTHER INCIDENTS LIKE MINE.
