To furtherdemonstrate our commitment to our customers’ satisfaction,
occasionally we may establish a special policy adjustment to pay for spe

such a policy adjustment, we mail details to all applicable owners wehave 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 Extra Care vehicle service agreements and Toyota Auto
Care prepaid maintenance programs. Both offer plans to meet a widevariety of needs. Your dealership can help you select the plan that’s best
for you.

dependability and peace of mind throughout their ownership experi
ence. 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. A separate publication
found in your glove box, the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide,
describes your vehicle’s maintenance requirements. Be sure to
review this publication 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 pub
lication and, with the exception of the emission control warranties, is
subject to change without notice.
