Got the C1391 Pump constantly buzzing every 4 seconds

so with a base model with 200k Im out of luck? I did not wan to go and pay for a diagnosis only to half to pay for something I already knew.

 

Yes I did read it, whats the apeals process look like I depend on the car and cant wait around too long.

 

I cant find the part on the Toyota site anyone know what I should serch under? IM just looking at cost for the part worst case scenerio.

 

Just called the local dealer they want 2200 just for the part.

 

Called the dealer and they said if it is this part they will replace it. we have two dealer and the one closer to me has a habit of up charging an extra 25% on top I called three local dealers for the water pump and they all said 290 this local dealer to me wanted 400. I hate those guys. I once needed a timing tensioner gasket all dealers were like 8 bucks this dealer wanted 20 bucks I only got it cause. at five traffic is murder in those parts it would take 1 hr just to get ther so I figured to save time and money is was worth the price gauge.

 

as dealers are owned independently when there is a nationwide recal who pays for that? The dealer itself or Toyota corp, So I take it the dealer would be happy to do it since toyota corp picks up the bill right? so it would be in the interest of the dealer to do the recall as corp always pays in full and on time.

 

Thanks for the info I do truly appreciate it. I have never heard of customer support program. Not trying to talk my way out of anything, there is just so much conflicting information its hard to see what the facts are then some info is kinda stale and I need the car for work so I weigh the cost of paying for rides time lost waiting for dealer to decide if they will fix it then ordering the part etc.... I can just buy the part install it myself on the weekend and have AAA take the car to the local mechanic to bleed it and call it a day. So im getting a diag right now and the service manager was already saying only recall is on the booster but that expired last year so I guess at least I will get a exact diagnosis. Unless you have suggestions on what to tell them to swing them in the direction of fixing it under the customer support program.

 

I see then this is not covered then, Im at 200k and 12 year old car. Man I tell you I had 2004 prius went 250K not one problem oil changes and tires, not even breaks. All that reliability equity that car gave me towards buying the 2010 has been lost if its not this its that I have egg on my face telling all my friends the prius is the best car you can get for cost of ownership yet they hear now what are fixing now seems your car is always broken. Not in my case it seems every 4 months its something else. I think after this repair im looking at th HV battery next. I will definitely do way more research on my next purchase and not just go on my experience with the previous model.

 

So expired in 2019 had to be 150k or less or less than ten years ownership....and you need to have the C1391 how are you supposed to meet all the criteria if the code is not present. I mean its not broken till its broken. on the bright side here I will for sure know what is wrong and fix it accordingly. So to recap
new to me/used
Engine from gen 4 2016 60k miles
used trans from 2015 80K miles
new water pump
new thermostat
new tires
new brakes
refurbed EGR
so after this and a refurb HV battery IM pretty much at newish car status would we agree on this???
