My Granddaughters 2011 Toyota Prius has about 140,000 miles never had brakes she said the the lights on the dash went on lots of lights so she took it to a local Toyota dealership for an estimate/repair ---they quoted her $6000 yes six thousand dollars to repair it --OR THEY WOULD BUY THE CAR FOR $800-- B.S.-NEEDLESS TO SAY they took the car home and the car seems to be running OK at least all the lights are now off---is there a reliable repair shop or mechanic any one can recommend ??? She lives in LA area not sure exactly where but I can get her address--- It sounds like the BRAKE ACTUATOR /ASSEMBLY MIGHT BE BAD ??? I know its a pain in the butt job to do but still cheaper than buying another car--- Let me know if anybody knows a place for her to get it repaired---Thanx FED 387

David--- thanx for the reply---She lives in Culver City and the dealership involved is Toyota of Culver City- lots of bad reviews on their service dept not sure how legit they are but nonetheless they have a bunch complaints filed with the Better Business Bureau too-----Not sure on the Brake actuator if that is what it is tho but Toyota had problems with them and had a service bulletin not a recall but they fixed some cars and extended the warranty a while back--- Fed 387
