2010 TOYOTA PRIUS Complaints

WARNING LIGHTS : ABS , BRAKE , AND ANTI-SKID COME ON AND STAY ONE. BRAKE PEDAL IS SPONGY AND UNRESPONSIVE. THE ERROR CODE READS OUT P1241 & C1391 WHICH INDICATE BRAKE BOOSTER PUMP FAILURE. ABS BRAKES HAVE FAILED.

I FIND MYSELF CHANGING MY HEADLIGHTS MORE FREQUENTLY WITH THE PRIUS THEN ANY OTHER CAR IVE EVER HAD. THIS IS RIDICULOUS AND MOST DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE. FRONT LIGHTS ARE NEEDED, I'D LIKE TO ASSUME THEY PUT THEM THERE FOR SAFETY, RIGHT? DRIVING WITH HFH BEAMS IS JUST RUDE TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. DOUBLE SAFETY ISSUE HERE.
