    Hello!

    Prius 2014 C, 170,000 miles.
    Four days ago the blessed "pull over immediately, check hybrid system" warning came up.
    Took vehicle to shop (towed) and received invoice with error codes a few hours ago:

    P0A80, Replace Hybrid Battery Pack
    P3000, Battery Control System
    C1259, HV/EVControl System Regeneration Malfunction
    C1310, HV/EVControl System Malfunction
    C1464, Right Front Speed Sensor Circuit
    C1464, Left Front Speed Sensor Circuit

    I was quoted at $3,700 to replace the hybrid battery, $600 to replace the rear shocks, and $300 for Spark Plug replacement.

    Questions:

    1) Worthwhile to replace hybrid battery in a 2014 C with 170k miles?
    2) $3,700 a reasonable quote to replace?
    3) Perhaps random: flash floods have left my Prius in standing water right up to bottom of the doors for about 1-2 hours the past few months. Could these codes be influenced by that? Is 170K around the time hybrid batteries need replacement?
    4) Other thoughts?

    Thank you!
