2015 Toyota Prius Questions & Answers

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Toyota? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Toyota Prius? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Prius’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my Prius's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Toyota Prius transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Toyota. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Toyota Prius? Yes. Toyota Prius transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.

You might even experience transmission failure.
