    If you’re reading up here, and DIY’ing, a plug-in with 58k miles is a good bet. Doubly so if a good number of the miles were EV mode.

    One more thing I can think of: brake booster pump (never remember exact name) has been failure prone on 3rd gen. Listen for pressurizing sound during test drive, and odd grunt sound when coming to stop.

    Thank you, Mendel, I appreciate your advice.
    So hearing the pressurizing and grunt sound are good sounds? I will read up on Gen3 brake booster.

    The pressurizing sound, just so you can recognize, is what you typically hear when first opening the drivers door. After that it should be quite infrequent. If you hear it often, say every 30 sec subsequently, and/or grunt sound when stopping, it’s sign booster pump is failing. You’re looking at $2~3k to fix through dealership. There is warranty extension, but with time and mile limit.
