The best time to go to Magic Mountain is in October, the last week they are open during the weekdays (the week of Halloween) on that Monday, Tuesday, or Wednesday.
You can replace the hybrid battery pack for $600â$2000. It will be more expensive to do it at the Toyota dealer, and the model of the car also affects price. I have had 3 Priuses in my family, and only had to replace one battery pack (200,000+ miles). I ordered a replacement battery pack from a rebuilder and had it shipped to my mechanic, who had no problems changing things out. The total cost was $1200, back in 2011.
I have been working with Prius customer relations and the southern California Toyota Rep and district manager are not willing to to discount anything on the battery or on the labor. The cost for parts and labor to replace the hybrid battery is close to $3,700.At the moment I am not very happy with Toyota, and I will have to think long and hard before I buy car from Toyota; especially a hybrid. have been working with Prius customer relations and the southern California Toyota Rep and district manager are not willing to to discount anything on the battery or on the labor.
