Myriad of fault lights have illuminated

I just filled up my 2006 Prius today, and the yellow check engine light illuminated, followed by the VSC light, then the yellow exclamation mark with little brackets around it - like this ( ! ), and the red triangle with an exclamation mark.

The touch screen is also now displaying PROBLEM in red letters.

Upon inspecting the trip information screen, the Hybrid battery was discharging rapidly from a stationary position, then it fully re-charged (strange). During this, the combustion engine was running. Once the battery fully recharged, the engine cut-out.

When driving it, the regenerative braking didn't seem to work (don't hear the high pitched whine when braking).

But, apart from that, the car seems fine. I'm not driving it now in case there's a safety issue, and it's booked in with the dealer on Monday to be looked at.

Does anyone have any ideas what this issue could be?

 

Thanks for the responses.

Just got a call back from Toyota. They said that the Hybrid battery has failed and will need replacing. Thankfully, it's still under warranty, so they're doing it for free. If it was this time next year though (end of eight year battery warranty), it would have cost $3,400 they said.

I knew it wouldn't be the 12V battery, as I only had that replaced around six months ago.

Phewww....

 

Car had done around 125,000KMs. I live in Melbourne, Australia - so hot for around 4 months of the year. I'll ask them about the error codes, but suspect they probably won't give much detail.
