    Has anyone ever had an incident where the volume control on the audio system failed to work? I was driving this morning and noticed that the volume control wouldn't respond at all. Not on the dash and not on the steering wheel. I couldn't do ANYTHING with audio except switch modes or turn it on/off... I couldn't change the balance, bass, treble... nothing. I also lost ALL of the feedback beeps from the tactile display. The other screens (climate, NAV) functioned normally, just without beeps. Later in the day when I fired it up to drive home, everything was normal. Gremlins?

    P.S. I found out what the STUPIDEST animal on the face of the earth is.

    HINT:
    An animal that encounters a road with an oncoming car will do one of three things:

    A- Watch you from a distance
    B- Run away
    C- Decide to run RIGHT INTO THE SIDE OF YOUR PRIUS as you drive by it.

    This animal selected choice C from the depths of its pea sized brain.

    Answer: A deer.

    I am SO CAREFUL with my car... I park at the fringes of parking lots to avoid car door dings, shopping carts, and spacially challenged drivers. I never thought I'd be attacked by a crazed deer. The stupid thing ran off into the woods. I have to go the body shop to get two side panels fixed. Sheesh!
