Gen. 3 prius owners....

Be aware, head gasket failures are common with mileage... Clogged egr coolers, and weak electric water pumps are to blame for this. At 140k miles I would consider changing these parts if you can afford it.. because failure of the head gasket WILL result in damage to connecting rods it not caught soon enough.

Brake actuator/booster pump failures are common and have an active CSP out for them

This in top of HV battery pack degradation/failure...

Just being real with y'all. All these repairs will pocket you ATLEAST 2k in parts alone.

Sincerely, a dealership toyota master hybrid tech with 15yrs
