Description of the problem | My 2012 prius was diagnosed at our toyota dealership. They said it needs a brake booster/solenoid. When i looked into it, it seems that this has happened to hundreds of consumers with prius cars from the same era. It is a devastating $3,000 repair. Total injustice if it is a manufacturer issue as it seems. |
