2015 Toyota Prius V Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Toyota's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Toyota? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Prius V’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.

Regularly checking and exchanging your 2015 Prius V’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform.

The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
