2013 Toyota Prius V Vehicle speed control Problems

“Today, 9/11/2019. I was driving on highway 405, my car was going at highway speed around 65. Suddenly there was a beep sound and my engine light turn on. My vehicle went into the limp home mode, the car would not accelerate. Then the car red light was on, and the speedometer went off and the engine shuts off. Luckily I was driving on the slow lane as I was planning to exit the highway in a mile distance. My vehicle would not respond to the acceleration pedal at all, so I put on the emergency flashing light up and slowly row out toward the exit. …”

“I was driving on the highway the other day and my 2013 prius and all of a sudden I felt a pop and I had no gas by the grace of god I was able to pull over and not get killed I called for roadside assistance I did have power I did have steering but there was no gas upon checking at my Toyota dealer they said the piston had gone straight through the engine and I needed a new engine and that it was probably due to abuse of oil and lack of oil changes I googled and saw that this was a known problem and I'm actually a doctor and have seven children and I did change my oil and I had no warning light”

“My car has a problem with the radar control. It has failed multiply times on the freeway when I had it in cruise. The problem is that a beep beep goes off and then the car slows down for no apparent reason. This has happened mostly in wet weather but has failed many times. With no one in from of me. I had it in to Toyota and then spent the whole day going over the car. They said there is nothing wrong with the car but maybe not use the cruise. They would not sent me a letter to the fact that they did not find anything wrong. It took me 3 to 4 days of calling and faxing to get this info. …”

“Driver pulled into parking stall. Foot on brake at curb. Pushed the p button for park function on dash board. The car reved and lurched over the curb toward the building. Driver continued to press brake pedal and swerved to avoid the building, yet scraped the side with side panel and running over tw0 recently planted trees. The car continued lurching for approximately 30-40 feet, back off of the curb, past to two parked cars (which sustained no damage). The car finally came to a rest on its own. The engine was still running until the start/off button was depressed.”

The contact indicated that the failure recurred on multiple occasions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who was unable to diagnose the failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure.
