So I bought a 2007 Prius and it has the break accumulator issue, and combo meter issues, i also can’t verify the hybrid battery has been replaced, its not throwing a code and seems to fully charge via regen breaking the seller said it was but it was done while his mom owned the car and wasn’t done by Toyota, so no carfax record. The seller offered me 2k back for the break issue. So I’m essentially getting this at 1k, runs and drives, cold AC and working heat. I’m just trying decide do I commit to this car. I also unfortunately need a car in the next 4 months.

If you need a working vehicle you shouldn’t buy one that’s not working.

Ask a shop for an estimate.
