Hybrid Drive coolant leak

Or at least, I assume it's the Hybrid Drive. The service campaign to replace the inverter pump was completed on Friday. The Coolant Control Valve was replaced today (I TOLD THEM to have that part for the service on Friday, but I digress). I'm now seeing red fluid dripping under the car. It appears something wasn't tightened down correctly.

Given that it appears to be a slow leak, and I need to get the car back to the dealer to fix it (40 mile trip), should I make them tow it back at their expense, or is it safe to drive it that far? I have NO replacement fluid to add in the meantime, and if I recall correctly, that's a dealer only part.

 

It's definitely pink. I put a plastic container underneath the car to catch some.

 

Based on reading past history here with dealers putting in a new CCV, I'm lucky that it wasn't connected with the pipping backwards . It's Go Toyota in Clinton, NC. I guess I'll just have to resume this issue in the morning when the open.

 

It's the inverter coolant control valve pipping that's leaking, as that's what they were working on yesterday.

It's back in their hands this morning, and I have a Corolla to tool around in for now. I suspect it's only showing signs of leaking when parked on a slope. That'd explain why they didn't see anything when returning the car.

 

Update: One of the hoses leading into/out of the CCV developed a hole. A new hose is ordered, and should be in sometime tomorrow.

 

Final update: They had the hose replaced by this morning, but I couldn't return their Corolla until this afternoon. There was no cost to fix this (beyond my driving time and gas), so I'm still fairly pleased with this dealer.

 

The car I have now was originally sold and serviced by Go Toyota to a gentleman from Wrightsville. He drove all the way to Clinton for service, if that tells you anything. They're the closest dealer to me.

But, to give some perspective. When I bought the car in '09, the financing was done through my credit union. They don't do "online", they don't do "Fedex", they do USPS for everything. Go Toyota let me drive the car home while the paperwork was still being signed between myself and the dealer. Not only that, when I got home I noticed the car had damage to the bumper that I had not noticed beforehand. They came to pick up the car and left me a loaner, and they also came to my house during this time frame (it was raining for a fair few weeks, and couldn't do the spray on the new bumper for some reason) to pick up the check when my CU finally mailed it so I wouldn't have to drive the 1.5 hours (there/back) just to deliver the check.

So far, it's a toss up between Go Toyota, and Tom Masano Mazda/Lincoln/Ford dealer in Reading PA that's my favorite to deal with. The service staff has always been polite at Go, and I've never had a problem with getting a loaner on a short notice.

 

Final update: The prius has been fine since last week, and I've been able to get it inspected. Huzzah.
