2013 Toyota Prius Vehicle speed control Problems

“I noticed when I was driving on a dry clear day traction control/brake light/ABS illuminated my brakes became extremely hard to press and come to a stop also my cruise control will not engage. The lights on the dash would go off and the car would drive normal for a few days. It repeated this scenario a few times before the traction control/brake light/ABS lights stayed on permanently as well as the cruise control will not engage.”

“I received the recall notice and to prevent an accident, I have not been driving my car. My nearest dealship, whom I have utilized often, now are discriminating by stating false personal statements against me. This may be gender, age or racist based. So I need support to have my car towed & have hamer Toyota fairly & professionally complete the safety recall repairs. I have been at the dealship and on the phone with all levels of employees who have belittled, made false statements and/ or just plain inhumane with no remedy for my 2013 Toyota Prius.”

“My 2013 Toyota Prius occasionally experiences delays in acceleration and abnormal hybrid function. The dealership says they can't do anything because there are no lights on the dashboard.

“I own a new 2013 Toyota Prius v-5. While on the freeway taking an interchange. I had cruise control set at 65 MPH, disengaging it as I approached the interchange that slows to 35 MPH due to the curve.

It was an extremely windy day and was told by Toyota that it is possible something blew in front of the sensor. That in itself is another safety issue. …”

“2013 Prius c two, bought brand new with 15 miles on it 5 weeks ago. A few times when driving, I noticed the brakes seemed weak, like they weren't stopping the car very well even at low speeds. My driving is mostly in town on residential streets, so I'm rarely going over 35 MPH. Even so, I'd have to really mash the pedal all the way to the floor to get the car to come to a complete stop, otherwise it would keep moving forward. Several times I ended up about 5-10 feet past the line, sticking the front bumper into cross traffic. Luckily no one hit me. …”
