2015 Prius C Hybrid Battery Warranty

My original understanding is 10-yr/150k-mile for Prius, and 8-yr/100k-mile for Prius C. But later I remember reading a post on Prius Chat someone got his Prius-C traction battery replaced under the 10-yr/150k-mile warranty in California.

 

According to the Toyota Warranty, it's 8 years/100K Miles.

But, I thought that the CARB requirements for Hybrid batteries were 10years/150K miles. But, that may be a latter requirement.
Imho, call up CARB ,and ask them! Plus, get their name, and record the time and Day.

If the CARB requirement is 10years/150K miles for your car, then ....

Then, call up Toyota, and tell you talked to XXX YYYY, on AAA BBB CCC.
Also, get that person's name, and record the data and time.
And, from talking to Mr/Ms YYYY, you're understanding is that the CARB required warranty on your vehicle is DDDD.
Is that correct? Or, do you need something in writing from CARB, or to have a CARB official contact them directly?

Note, always be polite and professional. The person you are talking to does not make the rules, nor do they decide what they can and can not tell you.


Good Luck!
