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.
