No lights came on, just made a "pop" would not go. If you google Prius transmission, they actually do not have one, it is a power splitting device that is the heart of "hybrid" system. Dealers unsure if it is covered under hybrid warranty--they called corporate. Said no. We called corporate, they refused to provide documentation as to what exactly is covered. We are considering filing lemon law in state of AR.... ironically, we told the person at corporate that, and a nicer person called back the next day, basically kissing our butt, saying they may help us with the cost of the repair. Needless to say, we are disgusted!!!
