I have been experiencing the safety risks outlined in the following manufacturer recall number: j1v NHTSA recall number: 18v684 I have been dealing with this issue for the past 2 - 3 years and unknowingly may have been spending hundreds of dollars on repairs that may not have needed to be replaced. Currently, my car is not running as I experienced a stall (11/09/2018) while exiting the freeway at a high speed with the screen reading "check hybrid system" and the dash lit up with the yellow triangle and exclamation point. I am not able to accelerate during the stall, brakes are working. This has happened to me countless times, almost always on the freeway or exiting and while traveling at a high speed. Sometimes the vehicle would start back up after a few minutes of being turned off. This particular time (11/09/2018), I coasted the vehicle to a safe spot and the vehicle engine never turned on again. I towed the vehicle to my residence and then to my mechanic. I am only able to put the vehicle in neutral. The motor will not come on at all and the screen reads "check hybrid system". The car had over 1/4 tank of gas at the time. I currently use my vehicle for my livelihood doing independent delivery services such as instacart, doordash, postmates etc. Since there is yet to be a remedy for this situation I want to know what my options are to get back the money I've spent or compensation for this vehicle since it is not usable and unable to be fixed by the manufacturer in a timely manner. I can provide documentation in regards to repairs made as well as visits to Toyota in which they were unaware of the issue.
