CAR HAD BEEN RUNNING FINE UNTIL WE CHANGED A SPARE TIRE FROM THE TRUNK AREA AND WHEN I GOT BACK IN IT TO CRANK IT CAME UP WITH CHECK HYBRID SYSTEM. THE HYBRID BATTERY WAS REPLACED BY A NEW ONE IN MARCH 2015. BUT WE NOTICE AN ORANGE RECEPTACLE LIKE DEVICE INSIDE OF THE TRUNK AREA THAT WE PULLED OUT AND NOT SURE OF ANY EFFECT THAT WOULD HAVE ON THE HYBRID BATTERY IF IT DISCHARGED IT. IF SO I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW TO GET IT RECHARGED AGAIN BY WHATEVER CODES HAVE TO BE INPUT AND INSTRUCTED ON HOW TO DO THIS SO AS NOT TO BE STRANDED AGAIN. I WAS AT AN AUTO TIRE SHOP PARKED ON HIS LOT WHEN THIS OCCURRED. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
