Choosing 2015 Toyota Prius V Tires

Beyond the correct tire size, you also want to consider a handful of other factors when buying new Toyota Prius V tires like where and how you drive, and what tire brand you trust most. Think about where you live (countryside vs. city vs. mountains) and the kind of unexpected weather you're likely to experience when evaluating your driving conditions. Many drivers who live in states that experience all four seasons choose to purchase two sets of tires: one for winter and one for summer. Other drivers prefer the convenience of all-season tires. They make one trip to the tire shop and they're pretty much ready for rain, light snow, or sun!

Next, consider your driving style. If you're an avid off-roader who yearns to pioneer new paths, you have very different tire needs than a highway commuter who doesn't hit the hills very often. Browse Toyota Prius V tires online or come to your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care for help selecting the tire that's right for you.

2015 Prius V Toyota Steering & Suspension Services

When you first drove your 2015 Toyota Prius V, the ride was probably so smooth that you didn’t even think about it! Lately, though, your ride’s been feeling a little bumpy. Maybe your Prius V bounces, sways to one side, or makes an unusual noise when going over a speed bump. As soon as you notice that something’s “off” with your 2015 Toyota Prius V, bring it in for steering and suspension repairs. We’ll get to the source of your car problems and, if your Prius V suspension system needs repair, we'll explain all of your options and the potential cost.

2015 Prius V Steering & Suspension Q&A

Why does my Toyota Prius V bounce so much? If your shocks or struts are in bad shape, they can’t dampen road bumps like they should. This can cause your Prius V to bounce more than usual.
Why does my Prius V front end dip forward when I brake? The forward dip in the front end of your Prius V when you brake is caused by the weight and momentum transferring to the front wheels. If your suspension system is in bad shape, it can fail to distribute this force, leading your front end to dip further downward.
What role do tire pressure and tread depth play in my Toyota's suspension? Keeping your tires properly inflated can help reduce strain on the suspension, and also help you notice when you need new tires. A tire that doesn't have an adequate amount of tread can't grip the road or function as well as the manufacturer intended.

2015 Toyota Prius V A/C System FAQs

Why is my Prius V A/C blowing hot air? Maybe your A/C starts cool but then gets warm. Or maybe it never gets cold in the first place. Either way, your A/C troubles could be traced back to a clogged expansion valve, faulty compressor clutch, blown fuse, or leak.
What causes A/C system leaks? A/C system leaks are often due to a combination of age and moisture. Rubber seals and gaskets naturally degrade over time, allowing refrigerant to exit and moisture to enter your Prius V's A/C system.
What is causing my Prius V’s A/C to only work when the car is in motion? A problem with one or more of your air conditioning or electrical system components could cause the A/C to only work when your Prius V is moving. You may be low on refrigerant, or the cooling fan could be faulty.
