Description of the problem | I having a problem with the brake booster on my prius and the toyota dealership i went to said i need to replace both the master cylinder and booster pump which would be 3000 dollars worth of parts and labor. After research this issue i have found serval people have the same issue. Also the parts are on back order, showing you how big of issue this is. The breaking system felt spongy, my traction control braking system and abs lights came on. Thankfully i had just a couple of feet to my driveway. |
