    Just got a 2017 Pruis 2. I love it. It is different being a hybrid and takes some getting used to. But 60 mpg highway is better than my 22 mpg.

    The lane assist and swerve assist are great...except when you are going to the right lane from an offramp merge and the car pulls you the other way.

    Where can I turn off the beeping for when I reverse?

    You can't turn off the beep, but you can get it down to 1 beep, you can ask your dealer for a freebie, (they can do it in about 2 minutes), but will probably charge you. If you want to invest in some software, you can do it yourself, I'm afraid I don't know the links, but you can do a search on this site and find out about it.

    Welcome.

    Use your turn signal and this won't happen.

    It is a setting that requires dealer software to change. The dealer did mine at the 5K checkup for free.

    Buy the Carista OBD II adapter and download the app and u can change all those "secret" settings urself. U can change all the settings the dealer can change with the app.

    Not specifically a dealer setting, but as @MagnusAG99 said, it can be changed at home with inexpensive equipment.

    Used cars in Indiana all have new turn signals because they don't use them. lol

    I couldn't help myself, forgive me.
