The short answer
NHTSA received Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing’s report on Dec 11, 2019. Copied from NHTSA on Oct 19, 2026.
Every line below is in NHTSA’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
A blank main display will not show important information like vehicle speed or fuel level. Driving with an inoperative display can increase the risk of a crash.
Toyota Motor Engineering & Manufacturing (Toyota) is recalling certain 2019 Prius vehicles.
An electrical short circuit in the combination meter could occur, causing the speedometer, the odometer, and the fuel gauge to go blank.
As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) number 101, “Controls and Displays.”
