    Since I can't come up with anything by searching (due to server problems), can someone tell me the latest info re: the stalling issue? All I know is that Wall Street Journal reported this problem and Toyota was supposed to be investigating it? A couple salespersons said they never heard of it...yeah, right. <_<

    It was a software problem that was fixed a while ago.

    Why are you asking? Have you had the problem? Have you seen your dealer about it?

    It only affected '04 and a few early '05 MY vehicles and there's a very easy fast software updated to fix it if you have a vehicle that might be affected.

    Thanks, everyone! My car is coming in two weeks and was just wondering if I should expect to have the problem, but wasn't too worried, since I was not reading any posts about it since becoming a priuschat member. I also had a coworker that wanted a prius, but bought a corolla after hearing about the stalling. She'll be sorry she missed out! :)
