Prius

  • Automatic transmission
  • 26,000 miles
2005 Prius totaled. Wheel suddenly jerked to right and pulled vehicle off road. No apparent reason for this, as nothing hit, police report taken by highway patrol, witnesses from both direction to physical accident. No one hurt. Vehicle considered total. Insurance special investigator to check it out. Case also filed with Toyota, who is sending person to check out vehicle. Also, complaint on this wedsite, as couldn't figure out how to get in and get bulletin on recall related to faulty steering for Prius.
