t Toyota, our top priority is always our customers. We know
your Toyota is an important part of your life and something you
depend on every day. That’s why we’re dedicated to building
products of the highest quality and reliability.
Our excellent warranty coverage is evidence that we stand behind the
quality of our vehicles. We’re confident
— as you should be— that your
Toyota will provide you with many years of enjoyable driving.
To furtherdemonstrate our commitment to our customers’ satisfaction,
occasionally we may establish a special policy adjustment to pay for spe
cific repairs that are no longer covered by warranty. When we establish
such a policy adjustment, we mail details to all applicable owners wehave on record. That’s why it’s important to send in the card at the back
of this booklet if you change your address or if you’ve purchased this
vehicle from a previous owner.
To provide you with added protection against unexpected service costs,
we offer Toyota Extra Care vehicle service agreements and Toyota Auto
Care prepaid maintenance programs. Both offer plans to meet a widevariety of needs. Your dealership can help you select the plan that’s best
for you.
Our goal is for every Toyota customer to enjoy outstanding quality,
dependability and peace of mind throughout their ownership experi
ence. We want you to be a satisfied member of the Toyota family for
many miles to come.
This booklet describes the terms of Toyota warranty coverage
as well as general owner responsibilities. A separate publication
found in your glove box, the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide,
describes your vehicle’s maintenance requirements. Be sure to
review this publication carefully, since proper maintenance is
required to ensure that warranty coverage remains intact.
All information in this booklet is the latest available at the time of pub
lication and, with the exception of the emission control warranties, is
subject to change without notice.

e realize that your confidence in the quality and reliability
of our products was a key factor in your decision to buy a
Toyota. We also know how disruptive the loss of transportation
can be to your daily routine. That’s why we’re pleased to offer you the
benefits of our Transportation Assistance Policy.
Underthis policy, you are eligible for transportation assistance if your
Toyota must be kept overnight for warrantycovered repairs. The policy
applies when your vehicle must be kept overnight for any of the follow
ing reasons:
¥The warranty repairs will take longer than one day to complete.
¥The warrantable condition requires extensive diagnosis.
¥The parts needed for the warranty repairs are not readily available
and your vehicle is inoperative or unsafe to drive.
The policy does not apply when warranty repairs can be completed
in one day but the vehicle must be kept overnight due to dealer or
owner scheduling conflicts.The Transportation Assistance Policy applies for the duration of the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. The policy applies to all 2006 modelyear
Toyotas sold and serviced by authorized Toyota dealerships in the
mainland United States and Alaska.
For further details, please consult your Toyota dealer.

automotive needs. Your complete satisfaction is our first priority. Should
you have a problem or concern — either during or after the warranty
period — please take the following steps to ensure the quickest possible
response:

manager or customer relations manager. In most cases, a satisfactory
solution can be reached at this step.

call the Toyota Customer Experience Center at
(800) 331Ð4331.If you
are hearing or speechimpaired, call (800) 4434999 (TDD).Please have the following information ready when you call:
