    How do you know it is the same issue? Have you had the codes read?

    Get the codes read and then start a thread in a relevant Prius c forum.

    Well, if it's the clown-horn honk, it doesn't necessarily come with codes.

    But the c forum would be a better place to follow up. Maybe also check existing threads in the Gen 3 (liftback) forum. For Gen 3 liftback, there was a firmware update released that reduces the honk. (I had the update installed, and it worked.)

    I don't know if there is a similar update for the c. If there isn't, or if the firmware is already the fixed version, the next thing I would try would be the "long form" bleed procedure, the one meant for after the actuator has been replaced.
