    I have had my Prius for 3 days and covered about 180 miles, I was driving through Birmingham and I noticed the gear display was all illuminated. This was followed by the main warning triangle and another warning message advising the hybrid system was faulty (Check Hybrid system) as I slowed down I noticed the brakes has lost sharpness as if driving a normal car with no servo (the vehicle did stop but felt unsettling). As I pulled over two further warning messages displayed, oil pressure warning and Park lock warning, park on flat surface and engage packing brake fully.
    At this point I stopped the car and called the RAC for assistance. They recovered me home awaiting the garage to look at it tomorrow.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Welcome and sorry to hear about that. Sounds like a major malfunction. What is the build date on the car (see driver side door frame)?
