Inverter issues
The Prius hybrid system inverter can occasionally fail, leading to reduced power delivery or the vehicle entering a fail-safe mode. This generally requires replacement of the inverter.
Coolant leaks
There have been instances of coolant leaks in the Prius, often due to issues with the water pump or hoses, which can lead to overheating if not repaired.
Brake actuator problems
Some 2014 Prius models have experienced issues with the brake actuator, leading to a soft brake pedal feel and reduced braking effectiveness. This can be a safety concern and may require replacement of the actuator.
