2006 Toyota Prius Engine Problems

Your car's engine won't turn off when you try to shut it down, even though no warning lights appear on the dashboard. You may need to disconnect the battery to stop the engine. This could indicate a problem with the ignition system or engine control module that needs diagnosis and repair.

ICE WATER PUMP FAILURE AT 51,000 MILES. 13 MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. DEALER AND CORPORATE OFFICE WOULD NOT COVER ANY PART OF REPAIR. *TR

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHENEVER OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS ABOVE 45F OR SO. TOOK IT TO TOYOTA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A FAULTY COOLANT FLOW CONTROL VALVE THAT WAS RESULTING IN CODE P1121. THE DEALER SAID THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE COOLANT CAN LEAK OUT, AND RECOMMENDED IT BE FIXED ASAP AT A COST OF NEARLY $1000. THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM FOR PRIUS'S AND AN ONLINE SEARCH SHOWED THAT TOYOTA DID COVER THIS UNDER WARRANTY (EXTENSION) FOR SOME MODEL YEARS UP TO 35K MILES. I WROTE TO TOYOTA MOTOR SALES TO ASK IF THEY WOULD COVER OR ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR COST, AND IF THERE WAS A HIDDEN RECALL OR WARRANTY EXTENSION ON THIS ISSUE, AND THEY RESPONDED THAT I SHOULD JUST TRY TO NEGOTIATE A BETTER PRICE WITH THE DEALER. I THINK TOYOTA SHOULD COVER THIS, IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL. *TR

THE STANDARD ENGINE WATER PUMP WAS FOUND TO BE LEAKING AND HAD TO BE REPLACED ON 10/1/11 AT 32553 MI. THE ELECTRIC HYBRID WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL ON 04/02/11 AT 30222 MI. *TR

PRIUS UNDER ENGINE DUST COVER KEEPS TEARING AWAY FROM BOLTS ON BODY. PART REPLACED FOR THE 5TH TIME. CAR LOW TO GROUND. COMES IN CONTACT WITH PARKING BUMPERS, ETC. TOYOTA DENIES RESPONSIBILITY. A DESIGN FLAW WITH FRONT EDGE OF COVER EXPOSED TO LOW LYING OBJECTS CAUSING IT TO BE PUSHED BACK FROM ANCHOR BOLTS. CAN BE EASILY RESOLVED BY DESIGNING COVER TO FIT INSIDE LIP OF FRAME RATHER THAN OUTSIDE. *TR

1. NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING AFTER APPROXIMATELY TWO HOURS IN HOT WEATHER. 2. ENGINE STALLS (QUITS). ENGINE WILL NOT RESTART UNTIL AFTER 15 MINUTES "REST". HAS HAPPENED TWICE - ONLY ON LONG TRIP. 3. TWO DIFFERENT TOYOTA DEALERS WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. *TR

MY 4 YEAR OLD TOYOTA PRIUS LOST ENGINE POWER ON THE FREEWAY ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC ON FREEWAY I HEARD ONE BEEP AS THE CAR LOST ENGINE POWER SLOWED DOWN AND WENT TO BATTERY. A LONG ROW OF WARNING SYMBOLS, STARTING WITH THE TRIANGLE, LIT UP. I SLOWLY EXITED FREEWAY ON BATTERY POWER THEN TURNED CAR OFF. I RESTARTED CAR ABOUT 15 MIN. LATER AND ENGINE STARTED, ONLY WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WERE RED TRIANGLE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. DEALER REPLACED INVERTER PUMP ASSEMBLY AND FLUSHED THE INVERTER SYSTEM. 5 DAYS AFTER REPAIR, WHILE EXITING FREEWAY DURING NORMAL TRAFFIC, BEEP SOUNDED AND ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THE ABOVE ORDER OF EVENTS HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME DEALER REPLACED INVERTER ASSY (ASSEMBLY?). *TR

I HAVE A 2006 PRIUS. WHEN GOING OVER BUMPS, I EXPERIENCE A TOTAL LOSS OF POWER FOR 1 OR THREE SECONDS -GENERALLY. A YELLOW LIGHT ALSO COMES ON THE DASH BOARD. IT OFTEN HAPPENS DAILY. I HAVE ONLY HAD ONE OR TWO EXPERIENCES WHEN THE POWER DIDN'T RETURN SO QUICKLY AND THEN I WAS AFRAID BECAUSE I HAD NO BRAKES AND WAS JUST SKIDDING. I BELIEVE THAT I HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM DISCUSSED BY OTHER PRIUS OWNERS OF CHAT SITES. IT CAN OCCUR AT ANY MILEAGE SPEED BUT I WAS ONLY ABLE TO PUT A MILEAGE NUMBER IN THE BOX CAN IT BE FIXED? *TR

STARTING UP MY TOYOTA PRIUS COMING OUT OF A CAR WASH THE ENGINE STUCK WITH HIGH REVS. I CONFIRMED IT WAS NOT THE CAR MAT BECAUSE I HAD BEEN IN THE CAR WASH AND THAT WAS MY THOUGHT. COULD NOT GET THE ENGINE TO STOP OVER REVVING (WAS CONSISTENTLY HIGH). NEVER WENT INTO HIGH SPEED. WAS ABLE TO CONTROL IT BY PUTTING IT IN LOW GEAR AND NEUTRAL AT THE INTERSECTIONS. IN LESS THAN 1 MILE I TURNED OFF THE CAR AND DID NOT HAVE ANY FOLLOW-ON PROBLEMS. NOT THE CAR MATS. *TR

I OWN A 2006 TOYOTA PRIUS. BEFORE I HEARD OF ANY COMPLAINTS OF THE ENGINE REVVING AT HIGH SPEEDS, THIS OCCURRED TO ME WHEN THE CAR WAS ONLY 1 YEAR OLD, WHILE IT WAS IN PARK. THE ENGINE SUDDENLY STARTED REVVING AT HIGH SPEED SHORTLY AFTER I PRESSED THE POWER BOTTOM. I THOUGHT THE ENGINE MAY HAVE BEEN COLD. I WAS STILL IN PARK WHEN I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF, WAITED ABOUT 2 MINUTES, THEN PUSHED THE START BUTTON AGAIN WITH THE ENGINE RETURNING TO NORMAL. AROUND THIS TIME I HAD HEARD OF A PROBLEM WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL CAUSING THIS PROBLEM, BUT IT HAS NOT OCCURRED SINCE. *TR

I HAVE A TOYOTA PRIUS (HYBRID). A LITTLE CAT GOT UNDERNEATH MY CAR WITHOUT ME NOTICING IT AND SINCE THIS TYPE OF CAR DOES NOT TURN THE ENGINE WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR ON, IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY NOISE (WHEN YOU TURN THE CAR ON IT RUNS FROM THE BATTERY AT THE BEGINNING... EVENTUALLY THE ENGINE KICKS IN) SINCE THE CAR MADE NO NOISE THE LITTLE CAT DID NOT NOTICE THAT THE CAR HAD BEEN TURNED ON AND THE LITTLE CAT DID NOT MOVE AWAY FROM THE CAR. THE LITTLE CAT DIED WITHIN SECONDS AND I HAD TO WATCH HIM DIE, I HAD TO WATCH HIM TAKE HIS LAST BREATH, I HAT TO WATCH HIM SUFFER TRYING TO GET UP I HAD TO WATCH HIM WAG HIS TAIL FOR THE LAST TIME WITHOUT ME BEING ABLE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THIS CAR IS FAR TOO QUITE AND DANGEROUS FOR PEOPLE AND ANIMALS, NEITHER ONE OF THEM HEAR THE CAR WHEN YOU DRIVE UP RIGHT BEHIND THEM AND VERY OFTEN I HAVE TO WATCH OUT FOR PEOPLE IN PARKING LOTS BECAUSE THEY NEVER HEAR THE CAR COMING. THE DEATH OF THIS LITTLE CAT WAS DEVASTATING TO ME, I CRIED FOR AN ENTIRE WEEK AND I DO NOT WISH THAT EXPERIENCE TO ANYONE. I WANT TO REPORT THIS ISSUE TO AVOID ANY OTHER DEATHS OF INNOCENT ANIMALS AND PEOPLE. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 TOYOTA PRIUS THAT KEEPS GOING DEAD. IT FIRST HAPPENED IN OCTOBER 2006 WHEN I DROVE TO WORK OUT AT CURVES. AFTER BEING IN THE BUILDING FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES I CAME OUT AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START. CALLED DEALER. DEALER SAID THAT THE PRIUS WAS A COMPLICATED CAR AND I PROBABLY WAS CONFUSING THE COMPUTER BY THE WAY I WAS SEQUENCING THE START OF THE ENGINE. IN ANY CASE I LET THE CAR SIT FOR A HALF HOUR AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT STARTED UP. SINCE THEN THE PRIUS HAS GONE DEAD AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES. SOMETIMES I COULD WAIT AND IT WOULD START UP. OTHER TIMES I WOULD HAVE TO HAVE IT JUMPED. I HAVE HAD IT TOWED TO JACK TAYLOR TOYOTA THREE TIMES. EACH TIME THEY INSISTED THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR (ALTHOUGH THEY DID REPLACE THE AUX BATTERY). THEY INSISTED THAT IT HAS TO BE SOMETHING IN THE WAY I DRIVE THE CAR AND SUGGESTED OVER AND OVER THAT I DO NOT DRIVE THE CAR ENOUGH MILES. HOWEVER, I DRIVE THE PRIUS, WHEN IT IS NOT DEAD, 250 TO 300 MILES A WEEK AND IT TYPICALLY GOES DEAD AFTER I HAVE DRIVEN IT SOMEWHERE. THE LAST TIME I TOOK THE PRIUS TO THE DEALER WAS SPRING OF 2008, THEY AGAIN INSISTED NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR. I REFUSED TO TAKE IT BACK. WE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH TOYOTA NORTH AMERICA. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE REP TALKED TO THE HEAD MECHANIC AT JACK TAYLOR AND CLOSED THE CASE SAYING IT WAS MY FAULT THAT HE CAR WAS GOING DEAD. SHE THEN THREATENED ME BY SAYING THAT I WOULD BE CHARGED FOR THE LOANER UNLESS I PICKED UP THE PRIUS. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP AT JACK TAYLOR ARRANGED FOR US TO USE ONE OF THE DEALER CARS AND SAID HE WOULD TRY TO WORK THINGS OUT. ON SEPT 30 WE HAD TO RETURN THE LOANER AND PICK UP THE PRIUS. THE PRIUS WENT DEAD AGAIN ON OCTOBER 3RD AT 2:00 PM. I KNOW THAT THERE WAS A PRIUS RECALL FOR 2004 AND 2005 MODELS FOR A SIMILAR PROBLEM. THE MECHANIC INSISTS THAT SOFTWARE PROBLEM WAS FIXED AND IT IS "IMPOSSIBLE" THAT THE 2006 COULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE SOME FEED BACK FROM NHTSA. *TR

OWNER OF A 2006 TOYOTA PRIUS PURCHASED APRIL 29, 2006. WE HAVE NOTICED A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE REVVING UP WHILE DRIVING. WE'RE DRIVING 45-55 MPH AND LASTED ONLY A FEW SECONDS. WE COULD FEEL A POWER SURGE IN THE ACCELERATION BUT BEFORE WE COULD ACTUALLY ANALYZE WHAT WAS HAPPENING THE EVENT WAS OVER. OCCURRING APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES. ON JULY 21, HOWEVER, IT OCCURRED AGAIN, LASTING MUCH LONGER. I WAS TRAVELING ON A ROAD AT ABOUT 45 MPH, THEN SLOWED TO 35MPH FOR A SLOWER MOVING VEHICLE. I WAITED FOR A TIME TO PASS, THEN CHANGED LANES AND ACCELERATED TO PASS. EXACTLY AFTER, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PASS THE ACCELERATION INCREASED WITH A BIG SURGE OF POWER, ENGINE REVVING. I ATTEMPTED TO SLOW THE CAR, FIRST TAPPING THE BRAKES THEN FULL BRAKING BUT THE ACCELERATION WAS GREATER AND MY BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP THE ACCELERATION. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. I WAS COMING UP ONTO A BUSY INTERSECTION WITH A STOP SIGN BUT WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR. I WAS ABLE TO SLOW IT ENOUGH WITH THE BRAKE TO GET AROUND THE CORNER. I RAISED MY FEET OFF THE FLOOR, KEEPING BOTH HANDS TIGHTLY CLUTCHED ON STEERING WHEEL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE UNTIL IT REACHED 62 MPH, THEN IT SUDDENLY STOPPED ACCELERATING. I THEN HAD CONTROL OF THE CAR AGAIN. WENT TO THE TOYOTA DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT IT. WE HAVE A 8 YEAR OR 80,000 MILE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING AND ENDED UP CHARGING ME $80. THIS PROBLEM DOES EXIST. AND SCARED ME. I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. TODAY I LOOKED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OTHER REPORTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM, ONE THAT ENDED UP IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. SEE HTTP://WWW.CONSUMERAFFAIRS.COM/NEWS04/2008/06/PRIUS_RECONSIDERED I HOPE THAT YOU WILL INVESTIGATE AND MAKE TOYOTA FIND THE PROBLEM BEFORE ANYBODY GETS KILLED. THE TOYOTA PEOPLE COULD NOT MAKE IT HAPPEN AGAIN, AND ASCERTAINED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. *TR

A GASOLINE AND OR OIL SMELL IN THE CAR THAT PERMEATES EVERYTHING IN THE CAR. MY CLOTHES, COMPUTER BAG, PAPERS, JUST EVERYTHING THAT COMES IN CONTACT WITH THE INSIDE OF THE CAR.

I HAVE BEEN TO THE DOCTORS AND THEY THERE IS NO OTHER REASON FOR ME TO BE FEELING THE WAY I DO AND THAT IT IS THE ENVIRONMENT OF MY CAR THAT IS PRODUCING THIS VERY SERIOUS IRRITANT . THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER SAID IT IS FROM THE BROKEN BEARING THAT WAS REPLACED, BROKEN AND NOT MY FAULT. THIS MUST ALSO BE A RECALL PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY SAID IT HAPPENS ALOT. *NM
