INTRODUCTION
A
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 further demonstrate our commitment to
our customers’ satisfaction, occasionally
we may establish a special policy
adjustment to pay for specific 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. 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 Financial Services vehicle service
agreements and Toyota Auto Care and
Toyota Care Plus pre-paid 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 Toyota customer to

enjoy outstanding quality, dependability
and peace of mind throughout their
ownership experience. 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. 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.

IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE
INTRODUCTION
B
oth Toyota and your Toyota dealer
are dedicated to serving your
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:
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
Toyota Customer Experience Center
at (800) 331-4331.
Please have the following information
ready when you call:
• Your Toyota’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 Toyota dealership
A Toyota customer relations representative
will assist you in working with the dealership
to find a satisfactory solution.
Step 3
If your concern has still not been resolved
to your satisfaction, Toyota 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
through the program, complete the
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
Mt. Clemens, MI 48046
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 identification
number, the current mileage on your
Toyota and the names of your selling and
servicing dealerships.

21Your Warranties in Detail
WARRANTY


MAINTENANCE
You are responsible for performance
of the required maintenance indicated
in the Owner’s Manual and this booklet.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim
solely because you do not have records
to show that you maintained your vehicle.
However, any failure or noncompliance
caused by lack of maintenance is not
covered by this warranty.
When maintenance and repairs are
paid for by you, these services may be
performed by you or by any automotive
service provider you choose. Toyota
will not deny a warranty claim solely
because you used a service provider
other than a Toyota dealership for
maintenance and repairs . However,
any failure or noncompliance caused by
improper maintenance or repairs is not
covered by this warranty.


REPLACEMENT PARTS
To ensure optimum performance and
maintain the quality built into your
vehicle’s emission control systems,
Toyota recommends the use of Genuine
Toyota Parts when servicing or repairing
the systems.
Warranty coverage is not dependent
upon the use of any particular brand
of replacement parts and you may elect
to use non-Genuine Toyota Parts for
maintenance and repairs. However,
use of replacement parts that are not
equivalent in quality to Genuine Toyota
Parts may impair the effectiveness of
the emission control systems.
If you use replacement parts that have
maintenance or replacement schedules
different from those of Genuine Toyota
Parts, you must follow the maintenance
and replacement schedules for the parts
you are using. In addition, you should
ensure that such parts are warranted by
their manufacturers to be equivalent to
Genuine Toyota Parts.

WARRANTY
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

GENERAL INFORMATION
You are responsible for ensuring that
your Toyota is operated and maintained
according to the instructions in the
Owner’s Manual and this booklet.
You should keep detailed records of
vehicle maintenance, since under some
circumstances they may be required for
warranty coverage. These records should
include date of service, mileage at time
of service and a description of service
performed and/or parts installed. For
your convenience, a maintenance log is
included in this booklet. If you sell your
vehicle, you should give your maintenance
records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim
solely because you do not have records
to show that you maintained your vehicle.
However, damage or failure caused by
lack of proper maintenance is not
covered under warranty.

WHERE TO GO
FOR MAINTENANCE
You may have maintenance performed
on your vehicle by any qualified person
or facility. However, Toyota recommends
having maintenance performed by an
authorized Toyota dealership.
Toyota dealership technicians are specially
trained to maintain and repair Toyota
vehicles. They stay current on the latest
service information through Toyota
technical bulletins, service publications
and training courses. Many are also
certified through the Toyota Certification
Program, which involves a series of
rigorous written examinations. Feel free
to ask any Toyota dealership to show you
their technicians’ credentials.
You can be confident you’re getting the
best possible service for your vehicle
when you take it to a Toyota dealership.

33Your Responsibilities
WARRANTY
REPLACEMENT PARTS
Warranty coverage is not dependent
upon the use of any particular brand
of replacement parts. However, Toyota
recommends using only Genuine Toyota
Parts when you need to replace a part
on your vehicle. Like all Toyota products,
Genuine Toyota Parts are built to the
highest standards of quality, durability
and performance. They are also designed
to fit your vehicle’s exact specifications.
Your Toyota dealership maintains an
extensive inventory of Genuine Toyota
Parts to meet your vehicle service needs.
And because it is linked electronically to
Toyota’s Parts Distribution Centers, the
dealership has quick access to any parts
it may not have in stock.


Genuine Toyota Parts are covered by their
own warranty (see your dealer for details)
or the remainder of any applicable New
Vehicle Limited Warranty, whichever is
longer. Non-Genuine Toyota Parts, or
any damage or failures resulting from
their use, are not covered by any
Toyota warranty.
