    Hello,

    I found this thread because I started having the exact same issue with my 2017 Prius Prime that members are reporting here.

    After replacing the 12v battery myself, it seems that I am now having trouble with one of the battery terminal connectors, and that seems to be causing the infrequent starting issues and core battery charging problems. TWO trips to the dealership for repair have done nothing for me and I am losing my mind. Did anyone ever find a resolution to this thread's problem?

    Thank you in advance!
