    Here's the backstory. 2007 Prius, Red triangle and all the warning lights are lit. Car randomly does great, randomly is crap and will not accelerate. When this happens, I also notice on the MFD that the battery and electric motor are not "communicating", no energy is being sent to one from the other. I can then restart the car and everything is fine. Is this a battery issue? The car has 207,000 miles on the original battery.

    Thanks!

    This car is definitely a different animal than my 87 Corolla-Nova.
