Prius Naviagation System: Toyota Recalling Prius to Remove Easter Eggs
TOKYO, Japan - Toyota is recalling 160,000 of its popular Prius hybrid cars because of what the company initially called "an electrical problem that could cause the engine to stall." But in a subsequent announcement, Toyota president Fujio Cho was more forthcoming, saying, "It is our duty to admit to our consumers that non-malicious, but potentially inconvenient, computer code was introduced into the Prius sub-system. These so-called Easter Eggs are not truly dangerous, but we do not wish to dishonor our loyal customers by leaving them in place. This recall will correct the offending code." The recall work can be performed by any Toyota dealer free of charge.

Prius is Crashing at Highway Speeds
Actually, its the software that's crashing, not the cars, but we scared you, didn't we? According to a WSJ report, some 2004 and 2005 Priuses—Priusii?—are failing at high speeds due to a system error causing stalling and other nastiness. Toyota spokesman Sam Butto told the newspaper the auto manufacturer identified a "programming error" in the computer systems of 23,900 Prius cars last year and sent owners a service notice advising them to bring the cars into dealers for an hour-long software upgrade.
