Consumer Description
ON MONDAY FEBRUARY 24TH 2014 MY 2010 TOYOTA PRIUS, HYBRID INVERTER FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING AND MY CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED ON THE ROAD. I LOOKED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I DECIDED TO CALL A TOLL TRUCK COMPANY TO TAKE ME TO THE NEAREST TOYOTA DEALER. ONCE I ARRIVED THE SERVICE ADVISOR INFORMED ME, THE 2010 TOYOTA PRIUS HAS TWO ACTIVE SAFETY RECALLS. I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. THE TWO SAFETY RECALLS ARE THE HYBRID INVERTER & BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP ASSEMBLY. TODAY IS THURSDAY FEBRUARY 27TH 2014 AND THE TOYOTA DEALER HAS FAILED TO REPAIR AND RETURN MY CAR. THE TOYOTA DEALER STATED THIS IS A SAFETY RECALL, THEY NEED PERMISSION FROM TOYOTA HEADQUARTERS TO APPROVE PARTS. I PLEADED WITH THE TOYOTA DEALER TO PROVIDE ME WITH A VEHICLE, WHILE I WAIT, THEY REFUSED. *TR
