problem #1

Feb 152007

Prius 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 25,000 miles
- the contact has a 2006 Toyota Prius with a current odometer reading of 25,000 miles. The contact stated that the cruise control would not disengaged once it had been activated. Under normal dry weather conditions when using the cruise control at about 65 mph, and trying to stop the vehicle, it took at least half a mile before the brakes would deactivate the cruise control. After this incident the contact had the vehicle towed to the dealer, and they could not find anything wrong.
