3rd Gen: 2010-2015 Toyota Prius Hybrid Battery

I researched online about this and found that the problem could be a faulty/near end of life battery. I looked for different quotes from different people online and even talked to them about what my options could be but to be honest they just sounded shady and where pushing hard to get a battery replaced without even testing or seeing my car. The last person to call was this business and a gentleman called Faraj. He offered to test the battery at no charge and give me a straight answer on what I needed. Once I arrived to his business he was very courteous, professional and kept his word as far as checking the health of my battery and giving me an honest opinion. It’s hard to find now a days people that are good, honest and reliable. I also appreciated the way he spent time explaining to me what a drained battery looks like and all the help he provided. If you are thinking about getting your battery tested, fixed or replaced then Faraj is your guy. I highly recommend his business but first talk to him to see what your options are. Thanks again guys for you and your son’s help. You guys were great! Keep it up with your honest work and dedication. read less

The engine is typical Toyota--very reliable, works great, and we've done only basic maintenance on it through the years. A couple of years before, I had researched replacement batteries, refurbished, etc. in the eventual time that the battery will die.When our battery finally died early February 2019, we went through the "what should we buy process" and ultimately decided that we didn't want a second new car payment, and because the kids would be getting their licenses within the next couple of years, we didn't want an ultra cheap car for simply going to/from BART car. At that point we were looking at safe, reliable, soon to be high schooler used later model cars in the $12-17K range. After a couple days of looking at used car websites, rental car websites, Carvana, dealers, consumer reports, etc. etc., I got frustrated and took a fresh look at replacing the battery. (Our mechanic recommended not using a refurbished battery and also did not reco a brand new Toyota factory battery at $4-5-6K).I googled "Toyota prius replacement refurbished battery" (or something like that). I got a few listings for SF Bay Area garages. I checked out about 3-4 websites along with Google and Yelp reviews. In the reviews for "PriusHybridBatteryOfSanJose.com"--they were 5 stars, but more importantly a lot of the reviews were consistent and spoke of Faraj's customer service, his honesty, his upfront way of doing business, how the process is done, and how efficient / quick and easy it was to complete the job...and in the comfort of my own driveway (like the Safelite Windshield replacement people). And of course, the low price (a little over $1000) because I opted for the 1 year warranty (he's got 3 and 6 month warranties for significantly less cost). It's been almost 2 months (replaced Feb 5, 2019) and the car is running just fine. All the dashboard lights are off. With the 1-year replacement warranty, I know I can guarantee another year's life in my little Prius (for about $90/month vs. getting a rental car, or new used car, or Lyft rides). And if it goes an extra 1-2 more years beyond, that's just gravy and I'll just call Faraj again.I highly recommend Faraj and his son. Super nice guys with an "old-school kind of (my handshake is my word) vibe" (and he also provides receipts and written warranty).Happy customer--Dave read less

So he comes to change my battery out and discovers since I have a 2003 Prius he doesn't have the battery I need. (Apparently 2003 batteries are very hard to come by) But free-of-charge he plugs some diagnostic tool into my car under the driver side area & clears all the codes & things. Now my car is back to normal, for how long he wasn't sure but at least I know I can drive without worrying for a little bit until I find the battery I need for a 2003 Prius. Faraj is one-of-a-kind. Words can't describe how grateful I am to him. read less

No way... So I made an appointment with Faraj to replace my battery with a refurbished one. Faraj arrived and replaced my dying battery with the refurbished one. He was very fast and offers great service. My new battery is in great condition and I am very happy to pay $760 instead of $3000 to replace my battery. You should definitely contact Faraj if you need your prius battery replaced. I highly reccomend him. read less

Took a chance with this company as the option going with a Toyota dealer we are looking at $5K. Adam drove twice to my house to take my bydrid battery out and repaired in the shop. He also let me know that I will have to get a refurbished battery if the charge did not hold.Faraz drove to my house and replace a refurbished battery from Lexus model and so far has worked flawlessly. I have warranty for a year for the refurbish. I paid the difference for the 1st and 2nd repair. This company is honest and I enjoyed the convenience of their service. read less

I've waited just to make sure the triangle of death doesn't return. Like most of you who are reading this review, I was seeking an alternative to the expensive Toyota battery replacement but a bit apprehensive. I spoke with Firas who explained thoroughly the battery issue and the commonality of it, he offered to come to me all the way in the East Bay to replace the battery and the price was within reason. He came out two days later, replaced my battery in 1 hour, he was more than kind and accommodating. I even had to call him the next day because it took my computer in the car a while to recognize the change, he answered the phone and told me he would come to me to check everything out in 1 hour. Luckily he didn't need to. I am so thankful for Firas at Prius Hybrid Battery of San Jose! read less

In a charming and highly professional manner he both educated me about Prius batteries and replaced mine quickly. It's been a month, and the Prius now runs like it hasn't for years. BTW, he was willing to adjust the warranty to meet my needs, accepting an extended one-year term in return for my accepting a copay. read less

He was very nice and worked quick. The price was great too. My 2004 Prius battery died and the dealer wanted over $3000, for a new battery. With him I got a refurbished battery with a 1 year battery for $900. The price included a $75 fee for him coming to my house (which was great) and labor. Once again I couldn't be happier, and would definitely use him again. read less

Not only has their work given our aging Prius a second life that we weren't expecting, but all along the way they were incredibly fair and helpful in the services they've provided. When we mistakenly believed our refurbished battery was on the fritz, we asked Faraj and his team to come back to our home in the East Bay. He diagnosed the real problem, and helped us remedy it - even though the issue had nothing to do with the HV battery. Faraj and his team made the process incredibly easy, even though we live in Walnut Creek, miles away from their SJ headquarters. For anyone who's facing the costly prospects of having to do an HV battery replacement, we wholeheartedly recommend you inquire first with Faraj and his team at Prius Hybrid Battery of San Jose! read less
