    I am thinking about buying a 2011 prius for cheap but the last service history on the. Brakes said.
    (C/S Abs, traction control and brake light on and brakes were hard. 146573 code 1391 internal bleeding on brake accumulator and bad psi on master)
    My question is would this cost an arm and a leg to repair. If done buy independent with used parts.
    Also could it be driven for a little while before getting something done.

    Thanks,

    Just to verify, as you were reading the service history, this stuff was reported, but not resolved? That sounds like someone trying to ditch it; I know those major brake components are big dollars...
