Can't start my "Prius" rental car
We are in SoCal and just had` to switch cars. The new car is a Prius.
Drove it yesterday and everytime we stopped and turned it off had a terrible time starting the car.
- The car doesn't have an ignition but a "start" button
-It would come on but would never say "ready" and allow us to put the car in drive. The start button would turn red.
Edited It seems that you must put your foot on the brake whenever you press "Start"
You'd think that the rental car company would have this very important info stuck in the car so everyone would know!!!
