To receive reimbursement, present to
an authorized Lexus dealership your
paid repair invoices and any parts
that were removed from the vehicle.
You will be reimbursed for warranted
parts at the manufacturer’s suggested
retail price and warranted labor at a
geographically appropriate hourly rate
multiplied by Lexus’ recommended
time allowance for the repair.
If your vehicle requires emergency
repair, Lexus assumes no liability
for subsequent failures caused
by improper repairs or the use of
non-Genuine Lexus Parts unless you
have the vehicle properly repaired
in a timely manner. To ensure that
warranty coverage remains intact,
have your vehicle inspected by an
authorized Lexus dealership as soon
as possible after an emergency repair.

39 Introduction
THE IMPORTANCE OF SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
MAINTENANCE
Regular maintenance is essential
to obtaining the highest level of
performance, safety and reliability
from your Lexus. It can also enhance
your vehicle’s resale value. This section
of the Warranty and Services Guide is
designed to help you make sure your
vehicle receives proper and timely
maintenance. It includes factory-
recommended maintenance guidelines
as well as logs in which to document
your vehicle’s maintenance history.
In addition to scheduled maintenance,
your Lexus requires ongoing
general maintenance such as fluid
checks and visual inspections. These
procedures are listed on pages 42–43
of this booklet and described in detail
in the “Maintenance” section of the
Owner’s Manual.It is especially important to check
your vehicle’s engine oil once a
month and to regularly replace
the engine oil and oil filter. Failure
to do so can cause oil starvation
and/or oil gelling, which can
result in severe damage to your
vehicle and require costly repairs
that are not covered by the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
With proper maintenance and
care, your vehicle will last longer
and deliver more dependable,
economical performance. Follow
this booklet’s recommendations
and you’ll enjoy maximum reliability
and peace of mind from your
Lexus for many years to come.
