ESP TOYOTA TACOMA 2010 Warranties & Maintenance Guides (in English)

IMPORTANT
MAINTENANCE
INFORMATION
It is especially important to regularly
replace the engine oil and oil filter.
Failure to do so can cause 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.
Maintenance Records
Maintaining your vehicle according to the
recommendations in this booklet is
required to ensure that your warranty
coverage remains intact. You should keep
detailed records of vehicle maintenance,
including date of service, mileage at time
of service and a description of service
and/or parts installation performed. The
scheduled maintenance log in this booklet
can help you document this information. If
you sell your vehicle, be sure to 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 are not covered
under warranty.
Maintenance Providers
Maintenance and repair 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, damage or failure
caused by improper maintenance or
repairs are not covered under warranty.
Dealer-Recommended
Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more
frequent maintenance intervals or more
maintenance services than those listed in
the scheduled maintenance log. These
additional services are not required to
maintain your warranty coverage. Ask your
dealer to explain any recommended
maintenance not included in the scheduled
maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota
warranty coverages, see the Warranty
Information portion of this booklet.

driven under especially demanding

conditions” and their required maintenance
items are clearly indicated in each chart.

additional maintenance services if you

operating conditions indicated. If you
drive only occasionally under these
conditions, it is not necessary to
perform the additional services.
Additional Maintenance

your Toyota requires ongoing general
maintenance such as fluid checks and
visual inspections. These procedures are
explained in theVehicle Maintenance and
Caresection of the
Owner’s Manual.Be

to ensure the most trouble-free operation
of your vehicle.
