Specific transistors in the boost converter of the Intelligent Power Module (IPM) can be damaged by the high thermal stress caused by repeated driving under certain high-load driving patterns (e.g. from a stop, applying nearly full throttle and then gradually further accelerating to full throttle). This may cause the hybrid system to be shut down without entering a failsafe mode. As a result the vehicle may lose motive power while driving at higher speeds, increasing the risk of an accident. Production: February 5, 2014 through November 6, 2015 (Prius); May 3, 2014 through December 2, 2018 (Auris HV); September 12, 2014 through March 24, 2016 (Prius+). Types: e11*2007/46*0018*, e11*2001/116*0264*.
