Red Triangle of Death and much more-help!

It is unlikely that an engine coolant pump failure would cause the warning lights that appeared. It is possible that an inverter coolant pump failure would cause those lights.

Typically the warranty on Toyota dealer repairs is one year, unlimited miles on parts and labor.

If it turns out that the inverter coolant pump is the problem and that was replaced more than one year ago, I would suggest that you pay the dealer service invoice, then apply to the Toyota Customer Experience Center for reimbursement on the grounds that pump is a known weak point and subject of a recent LSC.

 

We don't know unless we get the codes. Please supply them.

As fo the inverter pump LSC, see http://priuschat.com/forums/gen-ii-...ump-dealer-letter-technical-instructions.html but you probably already knew that.

If it's the HV battery, see Failed traction (HV) battery, what to do? - Prius Wiki. But, please don't jump to conclusions until we have the codes.

 

I had a similar issue today with my 2006, 116K. I had to drive about 18 miles on a short trip. When I left home I thought the car seemed a bit sluggish but didn't think too much of it. About half way there a bunch of lights on the dash come on and the top of the display in the console screen had a pretty red picture of a car and the top was blank. The lights on the dash were VSC, something orange with an exclamation point, an outline of a car, and a big red triangle with an exclamation point. I don't think the ABS light came on though. The car was going 70 mph and nothing really seemed too out of the ordinary other than a little sluggish.

I made it to my destination just fine and noticed the hybrid battery was
completely full green which I actually though kind of odd since i was running
the air. On the way back the lights were still on and I noticed the
sluggishness on the Interstate even though I could get up to 70 mph but it just
didn't seem to have the normal power.

I checked the hybrid battery on the display and it was in the purple zone down to the last bar. Not out of the ordinary on a hot day but out of the ordinary when going 70 mph plus it was fully green on the trip there with the air on. I shut off the air conditioner and it charged a bit and get to 3 blue bars but then it it went back to two purple bars.

Once I got into town and off the Interstate I was actually near the dealer. It
went down to 1 purple bar so I pulled in and checked it in since I wasn't sure I would make it all the way home. The service guy said often several of the lights come on when there are other issues. I am hoping nothing too expensive.

Does anyone have any idea was is going on?

 

If you see the traction battery SOC per the MFD move up and down at a very fast rate, that is indicative that the traction battery has a problem. If you report the logged DTC then we can comment further.

 

Make sure you're not overfilling the oil, as this can exacerbate this problem.

 

does not hurt to look at the dip stick on occasion! h

 

I would take that as very good news
-- now Guys, Is that common for those 2 conditions to cause all those "messages"??

 

Got a call from the service department and they say the codes say failed traction battery and cost is around $3000. They didn't give me the report at this point.

 

That is a good improvement. What brand of gas do you normally purchase? H
