    That letter is useful while I prepare for my appointment with the dealer
    Is there a copy of the full extended warranty for the IPM I can read over?
    Thanks

    Search this site for the term ZE3 until you find a post that attached it. Or grab it from NHTSA under Manufacturer Communications.

    I just got the Marlinsmobile back from the dealership after this repair. Between PriusChat and the settlement postcard I was prepared for what might happen, but it was pretty scary suddenly going from 60 mph to 25 on the highway! Luckily no one was following close behind Lots of lights on the dashboard + hybrid system warning, and codes P0A7A + P0A94. 2013 with ~150K miles, both recall services completed previously.

    I was prepared for a fight, but the service advisor came back right away and said it's covered under the extended warranty, without me even asking. It did take a day or so to get some of the parts in.

    I recommend checking the official court records or contacting the law firm handling the Prius Gen 3 and V inverter class action settlement for detailed information on the legal resolution.

    Reflecting on the past and curious if anyone else remembers discussions about a defect in earlier PC posts. Back in the day, I came across information about potential issues with our 2010 hybrid Lexus SUV, though interestingly, the Prius hatchback seemed unaffected. Nostalgic for those old threads and wondering if anyone can share more insights or experiences.
