Dealership quoted me $3000 to get my hybrid battery replaced. Should I go through with that?
I have a 2014 Prius C with 140k miles on it. The car itself has been running great for the time I’ve had it, interior is in good condition and the engine has had no problems so far, and it’s had routine maintenance. The exterior has quite a lot of sun damage a rusted hood.
Recently I got the dreaded P080A code, the dealership quoted me a little over $3000 to get it replaced. So I’m wondering what my options are; would it be best to get a new battery or should I trade it in for another car?
I really can’t afford another car at the moment, but I worry that if I get a new battery then the car won’t last much longer after getting it replaced. So what do you think my best course of action would be?
