Attempting to travel in my 2013 Prius five during xmas was driving and approaching a red and while trying to stop pedal went directly to floor and skid light went on and barely avoided what should be an easy stop!! weather clear felt a drag and no coasting ability... car has 21,000 miles and is in perfect appearance but far from in peak condition as this car from brand new had issues I got tired waiting for Toyota to fix. Cruise control, brakes, bluetooth, engine wrapping sounds on startup, I am told the brake issue since new is now a 3,000+ repair and since it showed no code at dealer I would have to pay! merry xmas Toyota! what is NHTSA waiting for"?? I am shocked at both for inaction so I will make some call to my elected officials this has to be fixed. Toyota is becoming GM who would have figured?" my other Prius issues matter less when brakes don't stop you reasonably and the repair is over 3,000 on a car with 21,000 well cared for miles...

2013 Prius, mileage 29,409. Car in motion driving on city streets. While breaking on uneven roads/potholes, the car skids and front wheels lock up and traction control/break assist light appears on the dashboard. When this occurs the car is dangerously slow to break and takes far too long to stop. This happens almost daily on my commute to work in both dry and wet conditions. This seems to be an issue with the breaking/stability system.

Car stalls out and won't accelerate

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.

A recall was issued for the years 2010 through 2014, pending the development and distribution of a remedy. It has been four years and I feel that has allowed Toyota sufficient time to issue a remedy.

When moving then braking, just before the car stops(in the last feet of dead stop) the brake pedal shakes and the tires feels like they are engaging and disengaging in brakes, associated with loud rubber noise rubbing(like un-lubricated actuator). This noise is also heard 2 minutes after switching the car off
