I am the owner of a 2004 Prius. After buying my car used 2 years ago I noticed that once in awhile the display, including fuel consumption, speedometer, odometer, and more, would not light up and that the car would not turn off easily several times I have been in situations where I have little gas an am unable to see my gas gauge or know how fat iam going on the highway. I understand that this was once covered by Toyota under the warranty extension but is not considered a safety concern. The warranty extension is expired. In what universe are a functioning fuel gauge and speedometer not considered a safety concern? I am also concerned that this will deteriorate further and cause an accident.
The fuel indicator malfunctions during the winter months. It starts to show empty gas tank when it is 1/2 full. This problem goes away when temporature rises. Toyota is aware of this problem and tells us that this is probably due to bad gas tank design. There is no solution to this problem for over one year and Toyota is not willing to fix this issue.
