Used battery+grid charger=enough $$$ to get a new battery. Now, the best case use for a grid charger is on an older but still functional original...
Other than cleaning the battery fan, there's really no maintenance on the HV battery (aftermarket grid charging excepted) so the above good...
My guess for a factory location would be south of the metro-mess where open land is more abundant/cheaper and flatter and has a couple of active...
Add sparkplug change if the originals are still in it @ +100k miles.
The bread pudding is extra runny tonight!

Well, electrically, the car is going to be dead. Does the FOB have a working metal key to get into the car because the doors aren't going to...
Gotta' know the codes. Suspect the battery first, Prius ECU's failure rates are very low (it's usually a burned out wiring connector to it)....
In my personal and anecdotal observations, LiOn's being used today have A) the largest degradation over the first couple of years and then the...
The kind that meets the requirements specified in the OM that you will both monitor and change frequently.

Intermittent misfires: suspect plugs first and COPS (coil on plugs) second. USE NAME BRAND/OEM for both of these if possible and skip the cheap...

IMO, yes. Yes it is. Reports of a 12v causing an HV battery code is, again IMO, just coincidental. Cause and effect between the two has never...
I like to say, "never say never" but..... don't hold your breath.
Have the codes read. Shouldn't guess on such a big ticket item. It's most likely the HV battery has coded but since yours is only 10ish years...
