emission control system warranty for your
2010 vehicle. In California, new motor
vehicles must be designed, built and
equipped to meet the state’s stringent
anti-smog standards. CARB regulations
require that Toyota must warrant the
emission control system on your vehicle
for the time periods indicated on the next
page, provided there has been no abuse,
neglect or improper maintenance of your
vehicle.
Your emission control system may include
parts such as the fuel injection system,
ignition system, catalytic converter and
engine computer. Also included may be
hoses, belts, connectors and other
emissions-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists,
Toyota will repair your vehicle at no cost
to you, including diagnosis, parts and

IF YOUR VEHICLE FAILS A
SMOG-CHECK TEST
If your vehicle fails a smog-check test,
you may make a claim under the Emission
Performance Warranty. To do so, take your
vehicle to an authorized Toyota dealership
and present a copy of the smog-check test
report. Also, take your maintenance
records in case they are needed.
If your claim qualifies for coverage, the
dealership will repair your vehicle within
30 days (unless a shorter period is
required by law). If your claim is denied,
Toyota will notify you in writing of the
reason within the same period. If we fail
to do so, we will repair your vehicle free
of charge. The only exceptions allowed are
when you request or agree to a delay, or
when a delay is caused by factors beyond
the control of Toyota or the dealership.
