Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) C1391, C1252, C1256, or C1253 light came on and turned off. Toyota refusing the repair as no codes or indicator lights are present, despite the technician confirming failure of the brake booster and pump last year. This month it came on again I have less that 150k miles and am covered until Oct 2022. But no lights or codes, so they deny coverage. This is so frustrating. I see there is a class action lawsuit still in the work here in Texas. Time to get rid of my Prius. Will probably never buy a Toyota again.
C1391 Brake Accumulator... multiple warnings lit up. Repeated pumping of the brake pedal finally make the red Brake light go out... and others. Have only driven 25 miles but has not come back on. Acts like something is stopping a valve from seating.
Other Prius models have this well-known problem and Toyota won't include the Prius v in the recall. It's the same problem, perhaps a different part number, but still a well-known failure.
