I have a new prius.. It is a few weeks old only..I need to drive tomorrow and the door lock won't open. The dealership says that they might take upto three days.. should I just call a locksmith and get it over with?

If it really is brand new, raise a stink with the dealer.
3 days is ridiculous.
It might just be a dead 12 V battery.
Does that model have an emergency mechanical key ? Have you tried to use it ??

3 days?! why? If you need it immediately then call a locksmith. I'd pursue the dealer.

Welcome to the forum, John.

Since this was posted TWO YEARS AGO, I'm sure it has been resolved by now.

Alas, many people don't have the courtesy to come back and report what happened.

3 days is way too long! Best if you know a friend who can help. Else, locksmith is your best bet

Yes, a locksmith is your best bet as a locksmith can unlock it easily and charge a reasonable cost for it.
