elcome to Scion. You’ve joined a swank and select
group of car buyers: People who want a vehicle that
sets them apart from the crowd. We created the car,
but you made it your own — reflecting your life and your own
sense of style.
Of course, quality and reliability are just as important as a
stylish ride. After all, if the ride doesn’t go, what’s the point?
Which is the point of Scion’s excellent warranty coverage. We
stand behind the quality of our vehicles. This booklet tells you
just how much.
Your satisfaction is really important to us, so occasionally we
may create a special policy adjustment to pay for certain repairs
that are no longer covered by warranty. When we do this, we
mail details to the owners we have on record. That’s why it’s
important to send in the card at the back of this booklet if you
move or if you bought your Scion from a previous owner. Just
tear out the card and drop it in the mail; you don’t even have to
put a stamp on it.We want you to be confident that your ride will keep you on the
road — and that Scion will keep you covered when you need it.
We think you’ll feel pretty good about that after taking a look at
this booklet. Again, welcome to Scion!
This booklet describes the terms of Scion warranty coverage
as well as general owner responsibilities. Another booklet
found in your glove box, the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide,
describes your vehicle’s maintenance requirements. Be
sure to look that one over pretty carefully, since proper
maintenance is required to ensure that warranty coverage
remains intact.
All the info in this booklet is the latest available at the time of
publication and, with the exception of the emission control war-
ranties, is subject to change without notice.

W

f for some reason your ride doesn’t go, and your Scion
must be kept overnight for warranty-covered repairs, you
are eligible for transportation assistance from Scion. The
Transportation Assistance Policy applies if your car must be
kept overnight for any of the following reasons:
›The warranty repairs take more than one day to complete.
›The warrantable condition requires extensive diagnosis.
›The parts needed for the warranty repairs are not readily
available and your car is inoperative or unsafe to drive.
The policy does not apply when the warranty repairs can be
completed in one day but the car must be kept overnight due
to dealer or owner scheduling conflicts.The Transportation Assistance Policy applies for the duration of
the New Vehicle Limited Warranty to all 2005 model-year Scions
sold and serviced by Authorized Servicing Dealerships* in the
mainland United States and Alaska.
If you need more info, please contact your Authorized Servicing
Dealership.

*For the purposes of this policy, an Authorized Servicing Dealership is a Scion
dealership or a Toyota dealership.

oth Scion and your dealership want to make your Scion
ownership experience easy and convenient. If you have
a problem or concern — either during or after the war-
ranty period — please take the following steps to ensure a quick
response:
Step 1
Talk to a dealership manager, such as the service manager or
customer relations manager. In most cases, you can reach a
satisfactory solution at this step.
Step 2
If you’re not happy with the solution provided by the dealer-
ship, call Scion Customer Experience at (866) 70-SCION, or
(866) 707-2466. If you are hearing- or speech-impaired, call
800) 443-4999 (TDD).To help everything move quickly, have the following information
at hand when you call:
›Your Scion’s vehicle identification number (located on the
driver’s side corner of the dashboard, under the window)
›Current mileage on your vehicle
›Name of your Scion dealership
A Scion customer relations representative will help you work
with the dealership to find a satisfactory solution.
Step 3
If you’re still not satisfied with how things were resolved, Scion
offers additional assistance through the Dispute Settlement
Program, a dispute resolution program administered by the
National Center for Dispute Settlement. The purpose of this
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.

(or, in California, the CDSP) before seeking remedies
through a court action pursuant to the Magnuson-Moss
Warranty Act. You may also be required to use the Dispute
Settlement Program or CDSP before seeking remedies
under the “Lemon Laws” of your state. Please see the
Owner’s Warranty Rights Notificationbooklet for the
requirements that apply to your state.
