    I just bought a 2008 Prius. It has 168,900 miles. I have detailed CarFax Service Records. It shows the Inverter was serviced by Toyota at 99,800 miles.

    But I really don't know if that means the Inverter Pump has been replaced. Please advise.

    Sign up for a Toyota account and enter the VIN. They may have a record of the last time it was changed.

    I would wait until you figure out how well the car drives and what other problems arise before changing the inverter pump. Since it's working now, you can wait until the car is completely sorted before changing it. And I would recommend only using Original Toyota parts
