MAINTENANCE
You are responsible for performance of
the required maintenance indicated in the
Owner’s Manualand 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.
* Warranted until first required maintenance under terms of the California Emission Control Warranty.
