APNewsBreak: US gov't investigating Prius brakes

Email this Story

Feb 4, 9:47 AM (ET)

By KEN THOMAS

WASHINGTON (AP) - The Transportation Department has opened an investigation into brake problems in the 2010 model year Toyota Prius after the Japanese automaker acknowledged design problems with the brakes in its prized gas-electric hybrid.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration told The Associated Press it has received 124 reports from consumers, including four reports of crashes. The investigation will look into allegations of momentary loss of braking capability while traveling over uneven road surfaces, potholes or bumps.

The Japanese government has ordered Toyota to investigate brake problems. The automaker said it had corrected problems with the antilock brake system in Prius models sold since late last month, including those shipped overseas.

The flaw requires a software programming change to fix.

The irony here is your 'carbon footprint' is remarkably smaller if your DEAD.

Its my hope every envirowacko buys one of these death traps.

Its getting uglier out there...

No one is surprised...your penchant for giving yourself a Hummer is well known...

As is your vanity...

I think my prediction of 3 GOP Senate seats lost, and between 6 - 8 House seats is proving to be correct. But I think I nailed this one. We'll see. Badeye posted on 2006-11-03 16:11:09 ET Reply Trace ACtual results: House +31 Dems Senate +6 Dems
