Yesterday, we reported that Japan's Department of Transportation had forced Toyota to investigate complaints about inconsistent braking behavior in its new 2010 Toyota Prius, the completely redesigned third generation of its signature hybrid.
Today, we learn that Toyota has admitted that early examples of the 2010 Prius--those built from the launch last spring until late January--had a software glitch in the redesigned electronic system that controls its anti-lock braking system.
The NHTSA has received more than 100 complaints about unusual brake pedal feel.  Drivers complain of loss of braking ability or slipping brakes, often on bumpy or icy roads. Fourteen drivers in Japan also identified the same behavior, all during winter months.
