Description of the problem | I own a 2012 toyota prius. On the dashboard the brake light, the abs light, and the traction control light are all on. In addition to the warning lights the brake accumulator pump is constantly buzzing without ever stopping. I took the car to our local dealer and i was told that it is a leaky accumulator pump defect. I was also told that this is not a ware and tear item and that it is in fact a faulty item from the manufacture. I called toyota corporate for help but i was told that the car is out of warranty and that there is nothing they can help me with. My main concern is the safety of my family and i really hope that toyota does in fact do a recall on these faulty items as it is a real hazard to safety. ## vin passed ## toyota prius 2012 ## |
