t Toyo t a , our top priority is always
our customers. We know your Toyo t a
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 condent — as you
should be — that your Toyo t a will provide
you with many years of enjoyable driving.
To further demonstrate our commitment to
our customers’ satisfaction, occasionally
we may establish a special policy
adjustment to pay for specic repairs that
are no longer covered by warranty. When
we establish such a policy adjustment, we
mail details to all applicable owners we
have on record.
To provide you with added protection
against unexpected service costs, we offer
Toyo t a Financial Services vehicle service
agreements and Toyo t a Auto Care and
Toyo t a Care Plus prepaid maintenance
programs. Each offers plans to meet a
wide variety of needs. Your dealership can
help you select the plan that’s best for you. Our
goal is for every Toyo t a customer to
enjoy outstanding qualit y, dependability
and peace of mind throughout their
ownership experience. We want you to be
a satised member of the Toyo t a family
for many miles to come.
This booklet describes the terms of
Toyo t a warranty coverage as well as
general owner responsibilities. The
scheduled maintenance section
describes your vehicle’s maintenance
requirements. Be sure to review this
information 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 publication and is
subject to change without notice.

oth Toyo t a and your Toyo t a dealer
are dedicated to serving your
automotive needs. Your complete
satisfaction is our rst 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:
Step 1
Discuss the situation with a dealership
manager, such as the service manager
or customer relations manager. In most
cases, a satisfactory solution can be
reached at this step.
Step 2
If the dealership does not address your
concern to your satisfaction, call the
Toyo t a Customer Experience Center
at (800) 331- 4331.
Please have the following information
ready when you call:
• Your Toyo t a’s vehicle identification number
(located on the driver’s side corner of the
dashboard, under the windshield)
• Current mileage on your vehicle
• Name of your Toyo t a dealership
A Toyo t a customer relations representative
will assist you in working with the dealership
to nd a satisfactory solution.
Step 3
If your concern has still not been resolved
to your satisfaction, Toyo t a offers
additional assistance through the Dispute
Settlement Program, a dispute resolution
program administered by the National
Center for Dispute Settlement. The
purpose of the Dispute Settlement
Program is to resolve disputes through
arbitration — a process by which two
parties authorize an independent third
party to hear and resolve a dispute. The
program is informal and free of charge.
To request that your case be reviewed

customer claim form in the Owner’s
Warranty Rights Notification booklet
(found in your glove box) and mail it to:
National Center for Dispute Settlement
P. O . Box 688

To initiate arbitration, you must complete
an NCDS customer claim form and mail it
to NCDS. To request a form, call NCDS
at (800) 777-8119 or obtain a copy at
www.ncdsusa.org. When you call,
please have your vehicle identication
numb er, the current mileage on your
Toyo t a and the names of yo
ur selling and
servicing dealerships.

INTRODUCTION

THE NEW WORLD OF
ANTI-THEFT TECHNOLOGY
This Toyo t a vehicle may be equipped
with an electronic “immobilizer” anti-theft
system. When the key is inserted into the
ignition switch, it transmits an electronic
code to an immobilizer computer. The
engine will only start if the code in the
key matches the code in the immobilizer.
If the code does not match, the immobilizer
disables the ignition and fuel systems.
While an exact physical copy of the key
will open the door and allow retrieval of
items locked in the vehicle, it won’t start
the vehicle unless the key has the same
code as the immobilizer.


SECURITY
For security purposes, access to key
codes and service procedures for
electronically registering replacement
keys is restricted. Only a Toyo t a dealer
or certain bonded/registered independent
locksmiths can generate replacement keys.

8Introduction
INTRODUCTION


REPLACING THE KEY
Upon purchase, each vehicle should have
two master keys and an aluminum tag
with a key code imprinted on it.
To generate a fully functional replacement
key (one that will both open the doors and
start the engine), one of the master keys
is required. To make a key that will open
the door for retrieval of items locked
inside the vehicle, the aluminum key-code
tag can be used. If a master key or the
aluminum key-code tag is not available,
a Toyo t a dealer or certain registered
locksmiths can obtain the key code from
a restricted-access database. These
businesses can also access a service
utility to reprogram the immobilizer if
all registered master keys have been
lost. If a Toyo t a dealer is not available,
please refer to www.aloa.org to nd
a bonded/registered locksmith who
performs high-security key service.


KEEPING THE KEY SAFE
Replacing an immobilizer key may be
cos tly. It is advisable to keep a spare
master key and the aluminum key-code
tag in a safe place. If you record the
key-code in more than one place, do not
record it in a way that can be easily
identied and associated with the vehicle.
It is wise to keep a copy of the key-code
outside of the vehicle.
If the vehicle was delivered with less than
two keys and the aluminum key-code tag,
consider having the Toyo t a dealer or a
qualied independent automotive locksmith
make a duplicate key before you need it.

than one day to complete.

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

dealer or owner scheduling conicts.

Limited Warranty. The policy applies to all
2021 model-year Toyo t a s sold and
serviced by authorized Toyo t a dealerships
in the mainland United States and Alaska.

Toyo t a dealer.
