It just needed spark plugs, engine air filter and inversion service Yay!:)

Not sure where to post this so, here goes!
OMG I was mortified when all the lights came on...the Red Triangle with an exclamation point, the battery symbol, the PS, the Brake light, the Check Engine light.... I think there were more but don't remember all of them now....

I have a 2002 Prius with only 76k miles on it. Love the little thing....what a great car it's been!

Long story short, after several hours at Pohanka Toyota in Salisbury, MD (an hour's drive for me because I recently moved to a remote area of Delaware and didn't really know where to go or what to do) ( I feared the worst, that my little hybrid was dying with all those warning lights!) God I was hoping and praying that it didn't need thousands of $$$ worth of repairs or worse that it was not repairable!

I bought it when it was 5 years old with about 18k miles on it. It's the first Toyota I've ever had and hope I'll have it forever now

 

When they came out to the waiting area to tell me what they had to do because of all those warning lights, they said it needed a tune-up (spark plugs, engine air filter and the fuel induction service.) I did ask "what's that?" when they mentioned the fuel induction service. Since they could tell I'm just a girl who knows nothing about these things, they basically told me there was gunk built up in all the whatchamacallits that had to be cleaned out ( since the car never had a tune-up before, just regular oil changes, it made sense to me lol.) I don't remember all the terminology that they used.

I did not watch what they did because customers are not allowed in the service building so I'm taking their word for it. My bill was $400 and I was elated that it wasn't thousands

 

Thanks! Prayers and luck ... a good combination sometimes
