2011 Toyota Prius complaints

Brake actuator failed while driving down the road on Friday, 04/14/2023. The car became hard to slow down/brake. Brake light, traction control light, ABS warning lamp came on, and tire pressure lamp came on. Next day lights went out. Then again all lights as above came on while driving down the highway. That was Wednesday 04/18/2033. Took to Toyota dealership who confirmed brake actuator had failed. Car has 133,000 miles on it. Prius was in the repair shop at Norton Toyota of Tulsa, OK, from Thursday 04/27/2023 until Saturday 04/29/2023.

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the emergency brake and traction control warning lights remained illuminated, and the stopping distance was extended while depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the hydraulic brake booster was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the vehicle was no longer covered under the manufacturer extended coverage for the failure. The contact stated that over the years the vehicle had experienced failures which included brake pedal stiffness and unintended acceleration after driving over bumps in the roadway. The failure mileage was 9,000. The VIN was not available.

On 4/12/2023, I was driving near an intersection and the e-brake and abs light both came on and the brakes on my car were suddenly twice as hard to apply, with a "soft" feeling to them. I was able to pull into a nearby brakes plus location. My younger sister and friend were in the car at the time. The problem has been reported by a Toyota dealership in California. The component was inspected by a repair associate at Brakes Plus and he confirmed that the electric brake booster on my prius was shot. There were zero warning signs of the problem prior to the incident.

Brake booster and brake booster pump failure

It is very unfortunate that the brake booster extended warranty was declined by Tustin of Toyota specially after having my vehicle in their hands for another recall when the warranty was active. This is something I can not wrap my head around. I would like to speak to someone in regards to this dealer. Who can I speak with?

If I make a longer trip more than 10 to 15 miles the car does fine if I drive it 2 miles down the road or across the street to a different store the car tells me to check hybrid system. I had it check and code c1391 came up and that was repaired. Once repaired picked up from shop drove across the street to gas station and it told me to check hybrid system again and went into limp mode. Once I do a reset the car will start back up and drive fine as long as it's a long trip if I go on another short trip it will do it again.

The right low beam bulb goes out every 10-15k miles. This is a known issue by Toyota that addressed it with a "Warranty Enhancement Program" that worked to address the defect, but expired in 2019. I believe that headlamps are critical safety issues, and this should be subject to a recall, not a "Warranty Enhancement Program".

Reporting an issue related to Toyota's CUSTOMER SUPPORT PROGRAM BULLETIN (ZJB): REPAIR COVERAGE FOR BRAKE BOOSTER AND BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP ASSEMBLIES ON CERTAIN 2010 MY PRIUS AND CERTAIN 2010 MY PRIUS PHV VEHICLES. Finally got a C1391 error with the respective dash lights. Increased hissing/pumping was occuring from the brake assembly for about a year before hand until the code/lights happened. Customer Support Program Bulletin is closed but hoping it reopens.

After approximately 6 1/2 years of owning this 2011 Toyota Prius Hybrid (purchased in 2012), the brake pedal went completely to the floor and there was no braking. The brake fluid was completely FULL. Intermittently, this would occur, but brakes would come back operational in a few minutes. In 2022, the brake lights on dashboard started lighting up intermittently and go off. I had the complete brake pads, etc. replaced in June 2022. Last 1/2 of 2022 the entire brake dash lit up. I got into Toyota dealership 1/12/2023. They said the complete brake Master Cyclinder and Brake Pump replacement was required. They got the dash lights off. This car has only 133,023 miles. I finally checked the internet to see this is a TOYOTA issue! A recall on this brake assembly should be issued! I was unaware of this 5 years ago. This could cause a serious accident and should be fixed at Toyota's expense!

ABS actuator and pump failing, which requires much harder pushing on the brake pedal to come to a complete stop. This part is supposed to last for the lifetime of the car and is now failing roughly 11 years after purchase. I took it to the Toyota dealership and was quoted $2,500 to repair it.

As I'm sure you have heard from the numerous complaints on the internet the ABS on this vehicle is having issues. The repair is over 3,000 dollars. Toyota needs to recall this brake pump. I can't pay 3,000$ to stay safe in my vehicle. They made a defective part and were somehow allowed to extend the warranty instead of recall it. My vehicle is under the mileage but over the years so I was pretty much told too bad. This needs to be addressed at a actual road safety level which is why I am writing you. Thank you for your time.

The ABS Actuator and Booster failed with diagnostic error code C1391

I have reported this once and numerous times to Toyota. I even paid to "fix" the problem. My daughter was driving and all the dashboard lights came on and the brakes do not work. It's doing it again after they supposedly "fixed" it. My family is at risk! If anything happens, I will seek legal action. I can't believe a company as big as Toyota wont take responsibility. And that a recall wont be done. I've seen numerous people report the same issue. PLEASE do something.

ABS warning light came on, followed soon by a beeping warning sound. Brakes felt odd. A few minutes later, complete loss of brakes.

Brakes in the car failed due to loss of hydraulic pressure/ brake acuator system. toyota issued a service bulleton for this problem approx 2017-2021 and the dealer and corporate would not honor the repair to my vehicle each time i brought the car in for inspection after experiencing constant issues with my brakes. the brakes finally failed and i could not stop the car while driving at interstate speeds. the vehicle was inspected by a private mechanic and confirmed the failure that toyota refused to honor. no warning lamps or messages in the car until the brakes actually went out while the car was in motion at interstate speeds. symptoms first appeared in 2017, but the dealer insisted nothing was wrong even though i demonstrated the symptoms to their mechanics in person. i reported the dealerships behavior to corporate and they did not help. they claimed the brakes were ok because the car's computer did not give an error code "yet".

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated that the ABS warning light was illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact stated that he had to apply extra force to the brake pedal while attempting to stop the vehicle. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed him that the vehicle was under warranty; however, the warranty had expired. The contact insisted that he never received a notification about the warranty but was offered no assistance. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 75,000.

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated while driving at 60 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stopped in the middle of the road. There was no warning light illuminated.

The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 156,000. The VIN was not available.

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the brakes failed to operate as needed upon depression with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed with a defective brake control dynamic system. The contact was referred to the dealer where they confirmed the failure and provided her with an estimate for the repair. The manufacturer had yet to be notified about the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 155,000.

ON Sept 9th, 2022, I was involved in a collision, traveling approximately 30 - 40 MPH and struck a vehicle that pulled into my path. I struck the other vehicle perpendicularly (T-Boned). My vehicle impacted on the front, initially, and then on the driver's side at full force. The result of the accident caused the front bumper to be damaged and the entire left side of the car was crushed. The force of the accident caused the driver's window and port-hole to shatter. The AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. None of the air bags deployed. The vehicle is still in the auto repair lot and has yet to be inspected by anyone. There we NO prior indicators of any problems with the airbag system.

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated that extra effort was needed to stop the vehicle due to the brake pedal being depressed to the floorboard. The contact stated that the traction control, ABS, and brake warning lights would appear upon starting the vehicle. The contact had taken the vehicle to an independent mechanic where the vehicle was diagnosed with a defective ABS actuator control unit and the contact was provided an estimate for the repair. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 133,000.

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated when his wife turned on the vehicle the brake, abs, and traction warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact stated while she was driving at 10 MPH, she noticed that the brake did not have pressure as usual. The vehicle was diagnosed at an AutoZone, and they stated that there was an abnormal ACC (C1391). The manufacturer was contacted, and they stated that the vehicle was out of warranty. The failure mileage was 178,000.

This issue started happening intermittently beginning in April 2022. The ABS/Traction Control/Emergency brake lights came on all at once and the car lost power braking ability. The car would stop, but it required much more force on the pedal and an increase braking distance. Folsom Lake Toyota Service said that there wasn't anything they could do if the warning lights had turned off and to try to recreate the issue. It happened again in May 2022 while my daughter was driving the car back from Tahoe. She was not hurt, she avoided an accident. The car returned to normal operation after it was parked for one day. It happened again in July of 2022. This time the brakes hissed when applied. Called Folsom Lake Toyota to have it looked at. They diagnosed it as error code C1391 and the master cylinder (acctuator) and brake booster needed to be replaced. The repair was $3200, so we took the car to Roseville Toyota for a second opinion. Roseville Toyota was able to recreate the issue and the brakes completely failed at their service center. Their estimate was for the same $3200 repair. We called Toyota Corporate and they responded that there was a Toyota Customer Support Bulletin ZJB sent out for this issue. The bulletin extended the factory warranty on the parts for 10 years or 150,000 miles. The bulletin describes the exact code and symptoms our car experienced. Our car is 11.5 years old and 113,000 miles. In speaking with Toyota Corporate, their position is that they already extende

Safety brake booster and actuator concern. the car abs, master cylinder brake lights are on. the booster is making hissing air sounds and the brake pedal vibrates. the code is 1309 maybe more.. this is a problem with thousands of prius and costs thousands to repair. Toyota extended this warranty to 10 years 150k mine 2011 so lost the repair last year but only has 150k miles.

My brake accumulator pump has begun running much more frequently than it should. Upon extensive online searching, I learned that this condition is warning sign of an eventual failure of the brake booster pump and/or master cylinder which will cause brake failure at an unpredictable time when the brakes are applied. I understand that this condition is known by Toyota and has been addressed by "warranty enhancement ZJB". However, my car is outside of the cutoff age/mileage. The president of Capistrano Toyota in Southern California made this problem known to you with an urgent letter dated 9/19/19 and expressed why this NEEDS to be a recall issue, not just what it is now. The reason is because not only has Toyota time limited repair coverage, they would not do the repair until failure occurred....a totally illogical and dangerous plan. I should not have to pay ~$3000 to have this well-known problem repaired at my own expense just because the invitable failure hasn't happened yet, and I'm not within Toyota's arbitrary time limits for having the repair covered at no cost. The symptoms I am experiencing are precisely those that are the precursor to this known failure. Why has NHTSA not acted to force this issue to be a full recall? You are putting lives at risk by not acting in a timely fashion given the Toyota dealer's warning I mentioned above.

While driving at roughly 58mph, while going around a turn: multiple dashboard lights came on, Tire pressure, traction control, emergency brake, one other. My brakes became less responsive (roughly half braking strength). This is consistent with the pseudo recall offered by Toyota covering my vehicle for a limited time, for which no notice was given and no warnings were sent.this issue has caused over five dozen crashes and during the duration of the recall, vehicles were not eligible until the braking system had failed. There were no signs of the faulty part until after the extended warranty period had expired, but the issue is the warrantied part, and the failure is consistent with the failure caused by the manufacturing defect responsible for the extended warranty effective in 2017

All brake lights came on while driving on freeway Abs, traction control, and Brake light Pulled over and brake pedal felt different, not as sensitive to braking as usual. Toyota dealer said code c1391, brake booser Internal leak

Multiple brake warning lights came on at once. Took to dealership and was told Brake Booster Pump had failed requiring replacement of parts totaling in over $3,000 in cost. Attached is a class action lawsuit about this exact issue, as well as a Toyota Customer Service Bulletin acknowledging that they knew about the issue years ago.

All brakes warning light went on while driving. The anti skil, abs, emergency brake lights. The car was unable to stop and code reader indicated a brake booster pump and brake actuator/accumulator failure. The failure was confirmed, and the brakes just stopped working while driving. I almost crashed into another car as the brake was not working no matter how many times I press it. Contact Toyota, they are careless and said it was not cover in any recalls and an enhancement warranty just passed 4 months on my car. A previous voluntary recalls was issue for the car model year before mine. This is a fundermental feature of a car and should be fix regardless of age. It is putting people's lives in danger and will cause accident!

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated while driving approximately 55 MPH, the vehicle stalled with the check hybrid system warning light illuminated continuously. The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the inverter needed to be repaired. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 141,000.

Brake System Warning light ABS warning light Slip indicator light 6/3/2022, while driving on the highway the above warning lights illuminated. I depressed the brakes but failed to engage. I was able to slow down by shifting the gear into “B”. Eventually the brakes engaged and I brought the car to a stop. Toyota created customer support program ZJB but the warranty covered a period until August 2021.

Hello, My vehicle a 2011 Toyota Prius V, Vin: XXXXXXXXXXX is showing the breaks, ABS and TRAC Warning lights and the breaks become less responsive. I was able to find out that TOYOTA had a recall for this issue that can be found here: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10158577-9999.pdf I email Toyota about the issue and this was their response: ===== BRAND ENGAGEMENT ADVOCATE, May 26, 2022 at 10:46 AM Dear Customer, Thank you for contacting Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc. We are sorry to learn your 2011 Toyota Prius is experiencing concerns with the ABS and TRAC warning lights coming on. Toyota strives to produce long-lasting, trouble-free parts and while we cannot predict an average life expectancy for any specific part or component, we do provide our limited implied Toyota warranty which reflects our confidence in the products we offer. According to your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), XXXXXXXXXX, the warranty for the part you are inquiring is 3 years, or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first starting from the vehicle's in-service date: 03/20/2011. We verified this vehicle was involved in Customer Support Program ZJB which was covered for 10 years from the vehicle in-service date which expired 3/20/2021 or at 150,000 miles which ever occurred first. We have confirmed there are no related to your ABS or TRAC concern. While there are situations where we gladly look into out of warranty financial assistance requests, we are simply unable to offer any assistance due

The brake system failed. Over time there was a frequent sound (which I now know is the brake pump) when you opened a door. Eventually at 120K the entire brake system failed throwing the ABS code. I had to replace the brake actuator and booster (2 parts are recommended in the repair) for a little more than $1500. After speaking with the parts rep at Toyota (I replaced it with geniune Toyota parts) I was under the impression that the parts person knew that people frequently buy these parts which led me to believe something was known but not divulged.

While driving on the freeway 3 warning lamps lit up: parking brake, traction control & the "!" (attention warning light). I was about to exit and while braking noticed my brakes were not working well. It required at least twice the muscle effort to stop and took a further distance. Prior to this the brakes seemed to have been working perfectly. I stopped at an Autozone on the way home and they scanned the C1391 error code. A quick internet search showed that this had been the subject of a recall for the year and model of the car: 2011 Toyota Prius. I have not yet taken it to the dealer but understand the recall no longer covers this year. However, the safety of myself and passengers was definitely at risk due to a known problem of this car.

Driving on a cross country trip and went over a bump to have all the brake lights on the dash illuminate and brake system failed. Brakes were very hard to push but was able to safely stop the vehicle. Brought it to Toyota dealership and was told that the master brake cylinder, hydraulic brake booster and pump assembly needed to be replaced and that the vehicle was not safe to drive. I was advised that the parts are on national backorder and they don’t know when they’ll get the parts. I did more research into this and this is a known issue that Toyota has refused to address outside of a limited program that is no longer active for this model year. Toyota is refusing to cover any of the costs. This is an incredibly dangerous safety issue and Toyota should be forced to recall and reimburse everyone who has had this issue regardless of model year or mileage. Toyota is currently facing a class action lawsuit for this issue as well.

All the brake lights, ABS, and VSC lights came on, lucky I was not on the road. Now my brakes are mushy and I'm driving without any safety. I learned of the Customer Support Program - ZJB, but it expired for my 2010 Prius w 85k miles on 8/31/2021. I called Toyota Cooperate Office, they could not care less. They told me it is expired, bye! They need to make this a recall as the it is a major KNOWN problem for many cars. Repairs will run $3500 plus. This is my 2nd Toyota I bought brand new, and my last if Toyota is not willing to help.

Traction control, ABS, and brakes come on all at once and brakes don’t work properly. This happened a few times on the freeway and thank god I didn’t get into a crash. Car doesn’t feel safe to drive. I took the car to a mechanic to check the codes and the code C1391 (abnormal leak in accumulator) came up. I see that this is a very common problem with Gen 3 Prius’. Toyota has not called these car even though the problem seems to happen to all Prius’s of that generation. This is very dangerous and I fear driving my car and that the brakes might completely fail potentially causing a crash at accelerated speeds.

The brake actuator failed leaving the vehicle with no brakes.

Electric front window will not work. Could not find any bad fuses.

Our Prius started showing brake issues in June 2021 that has us concerned about safety. The car lurches when the brakes are pressed, and the brake functions inconsistently. This seems to fall under the “brake booster pump assembly with master cylinder” issue that many others have complained about. When we called Toyota, they said a letter was issued in April 2019, but when we took the car in for diagnostics in August 2019, the brake issue (diagnostic code) didn’t appear then. So they said they won’t fix the hazardous defect. Even more troublesome is the fact that this issue has caused crashes and injuries in the past, and Toyota hasn’t issued a recall. Please help consumers hold Toyota accountable for putting their customers in harm’s way.

ABS actuator pump won't stop running, ABS light comes on, and brakes are spongy.

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH on the highway, the brake pedal was depressed but failed to respond. The contact depressed the brake pedal harder and the vehicle almost came to a complete stop. The ABS warning light, the brake warning light, and the traction control warning light illuminated. The contact stated that she exited the highway and was able to continue to drive by slightly depressing the brake pedal. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that there was an internal malfunction of the brake booster and the brake booster assembly pump. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact contacted the manufacturer and inquired about assistance with repairing the vehicle under an unknown customer satisfaction program. The manufacturer informed the contact that the failure was not a safety issue and they could not assist as the customer satisfaction program had already expired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

My daughter was driving the vehicle on highway and all dashboard lights came on. Abs brake and traction. The brakes would not work. She had to decelerate and pull off and turn car off. Terrifying. Got it checked at Toyota. Told them about that and how car lunges forward when brakes hit on a bump or pothole. We had to pay 2500 to replace brake booster which had an “internal error”. Got car back and all lights came back on. I’m literally terrified to drive my car because of what may happen. Toyota refuses to recall and fix whatever this issue is.

I have a 2011 Prius it has no warning light in the dashboard but the brake was causing me problems when I stopped the car almost causing me to crash so I had it inspected by a mechanic and got a FIXD sensor both are telling me it’s the brake actuator( code c1391) I could of been seriously hurt and I drive my toddler and I to and from places.

I was driving my vehicle through a state park, on a mountainous road that’s curvy and hilly. I was going about 35-40mph up a hill. As I was accelerating up this hill, my cars break light notifications all went off. 3 of them; stability control, ABS and one other. When I got to the top of the hill, I had to go back down a hill. I tried hitting the brakes and they were extremely weak. I could barely slow down or stop safely. I knew I had about 5 more minutes of driving left through this park so I went 5 miles an hour to not run into trees or slide off the road around a curve. I immediately got to a parking lot and called for a tow truck to take my vehicle to the dealership. When it was dropped off I received a phone call from the dealership saying my brake actuator had gone out. It will be $2,655 to fix… the part? $2000. Apparently there was an extended warrantee on this part. That ended on 12/31/2021 or 150,000 miles. My incident happened on 1/26/22 (less than 4 weeks later) with 153,059 miles on my vehicle. I contacted Toyota Corporate and was told they couldn’t do anything about it. I was given a ticket number of 220127001781. I told them I never received a notification and begged for mercy on this part. I told them my phone number and email had never changed since buying the vehicle. I called another mechanic and was advised that there were 44 people on the waitlist for this exact part. I’m only 26 days and 3,059 miles over each warrantee and they’re refusing to help for a

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated that she was hit by another vehicle while turning left onto a highway at 5 MPH. The contact was hit on her driver-side door at approximately 60 MPH and the airbags did not deploy upon impact. The contact stated that the driver seat had collapsed backward onto the rear driver seat which sent her over the steering wheel and into the windshield. The contact lost consciousness upon impact and when she came to, her hands were dangling over the steering wheel with her head pinned to the windshield glass. The contact was removed from her vehicle by authorities and was transported to the hospital by ambulance. The contact was treated for a broken sternum, four broken ribs, two on both the left and right side of her body, and severe bruising on both the left and right side of her entire body. The contact stated that five occupants inside the other vehicle were all transported to the hospital including a four-year-old child whose car seat broke upon impact. The whereabouts and injuries of the occupants are unknown. A police report was filed at the scene. The vehicle was towed to an independent tow yard but had yet to be destroyed. The dealer nor the manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 117,000. The VIN was not available.

It's the exact issue from the ZJB customer support program. The brake booster is faulty. All the brake warning lights came on all at once. A few weeks ago the brakes were starting to make a noise so I brought it to the Toyota dealer and also called Toyota customer care. The dealer ran a diagnostic and said the booster needed to be replaced but Toyota customer care wouldn't cover the $3500 fix because the customer support program ended on Aug 31 2021. The extension of the ZJB program covered 10years or 150,000 miles. Even though my Prius is a 2011 and got the diagnostic done in 2021, they said I was technically past the 10 year mark because evidently my Prius was initially purchased in September of 2011 and I had the problem diagnosed in Dec of 2021. Three months late. I've spend hours on the phone with Toyota pleading my case and they have been of no help. They know this is a problem. There's a class action lawsuit. There's been petitions. This issue needs to be recalled.

My husband and I bought a 2011 Toyota Prius 7 months ago. It was a one owner car in excellent condition with unusually low miles. The last two times we've had the dealership service it we've asked about a noise that the brakes were making. Both times we were told the brakes were fine and didn't need any service. Two days ago the ABS light came on. We immediately took it to the dealership. Yesterday we were told that the brake booster and actuator have gone out in the car. Turns out that Toyota issued an extended warranty for this exact repair to be done due to a manufacturers defect with the parts. It was for 10 years or 150K miles. It expired in October. My car has less than 90K miles on it! Now I have to pay $2800 to repair a manufacturers defect because Toyota refuses to fix it now. This is a known safety issue. They are doing everything they can to save money and avoid a recall. This is NOT good business. There is currently a class action lawsuit that has been filed against Toyota for this very issue. Toyota refuses to recall the product and does everything in it's power to not fix the issue. People have already been injured due to this issue. They even tell the dealerships not to fix the issue under the warranty unless the car spits out a particular code - no matter the issue someone is having with their braking system. A quick Google search will yield many testimonies from others who are part of this lawsuit who are experiencing the same issues. This is a known safety h

The contact owns a 2011 Toyota Prius. The contact stated that while driving at 60 MPH, the brake pedal was depressed but hesitated to respond. The contact did not recall the number of feet in stopping distance delay. The ABS warning light, traction control warning light, tire pressure warning light, and an unknown warning light were illuminated. The Brake message was displayed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the brake booster and the brake booster pump needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact that the failure was a known failure however, the extended warranty had expired. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 139,000.
