    After I drove home from work I turned the Prius off and tried to lock the doors. They wouldn’t lock. I went back an hour later and tried to start it and the inverter is making weird sounds and nothing is displayed on the screen. The car won’t start either and the interior locks do not work as well. Is this a battery issue? Thanks for the help.

    That describes our Prius when its battery is low.
