    This is my first post here. We bought a 2005 Prius about four months ago. It has been great, but this morning it would not start.But I used it last night

    I pressed on the brake and pushed power, nothing happens and when I pushed it again it go into the Acc, mode (power switch yellow and the Red break light indicator on dash board is on )

    One thing I noticed is the break pedal goes to the floor .


    Thanks much!
    Sam

    Tow the car to your local Toyota dealer as the brake system is severely impaired at minimum.
