    2007 Prius III as I was crossing WV-VA border on 522 around midnight last week, it had a complete open in the electrical ssystem and everything went black, the motor shut off and then it started back up. Lasted for a second but Toy says they cant find any faults or anything wrong. Anyone else heard of this? In over 2 milion miles of driving I have never had anything like this happen.

    That's pretty weird. Were there any UFO sightings in the area at the time? ;)
