Description of the problem | My prius was just fine then one day it stalled while i was driving in the middle of the free way. I took my vehicle in to elmore toyota in westminster, ca, they found it had a failed inverter and it was still covered under warranty. It took 2 weeks for them to fix it, but when they returned my car, the slip indicator was now on and would not turn off. They claim it was like that prior to the failed inverter, this was false, my car was running perfect. They then wanted to charge me nearly $1k to fix a problem i did not have prior to failed inverter. I feel the situation was connected but they refuse to cover it. |
