ESP TOYOTA xB 2011 Warranties & Maintenance Guides (in English)

elcome to Scion. You’ve joined
a 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. The
scheduled maintenance section
describes your vehicle’s
maintenance requirements. Be sure
to look it 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 warranties, is subject to change
without notice.
Scion is a marque of Toyota Motor
Sales, U.S.A., Inc.

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
warranty 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 dealership, call Scion
Customer Experience at (866)
70-SCION, or (866) 707-2466.
To help everything move quickly, please
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 after
pursuing steps 1 and 2, 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—aprocessbywhich 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

GENERAL INFORMATION
You are responsible for ensuring that
your Scion is operated and maintained
according to the instructions in the
Owner’s Manualand this booklet.
You should keep detailed records of
vehicle maintenance, since under some
circumstances they may be required for
warranty coverage. These records
should include date of service, mileage
at time of service and a description of
service performed and/or parts
installed. For your convenience, a
maintenance log is included in this
booklet. If you sell your vehicle, you
should give your maintenance records
to the new owner.
Scion will not deny a warranty claim
solely because you do not have records
to show that you maintained your
vehicle. However, damage or failures
caused by improper maintenance or
lack of maintenance are not covered
under warranty.
WHERE TO GO FOR
MAINTENANCE
You may have maintenance performed
on your vehicle by any qualified person
or facility. However, Scion recommends
having maintenance performed by an
Authorized Servicing Dealership.
Technicians at Authorized Servicing
Dealerships are specially trained to
maintain and repair Scion vehicles.
They stay current on the latest service
information through Scion technical
bulletins, service publications and
training courses. Many are also
factory-certified. That means they have
passed rigorous exams through both
Scion and the National Institute for
Automotive Service Excellence.
You can be confident you’re getting the
best possible service for your vehicle
when you take it to an Authorized
Servicing Dealer ship. Plus, an
Authorized Servicing Dealership will
always use Scion Authorized Parts
designed specifically for your vehicle.

Your Responsibilities28

REPLACEMENT PARTS
Warranty coverage is not dependent
upon the use of any particular brand of
replacement parts. However, Scion
recommends using only Scion
Authorized Parts when you need to
replace a part on your vehicle. Like all
Scion products, Scion Authorized Parts
are built to the highest standards of
quality, durability and performance.
They are also designed to fit your
vehicle’s exact specifications.
Your Authorized Servicing Dealership
maintains an extensive inventory of
Scion Authorized Parts to meet your
vehicle service needs. And because it is
linked electronically to Scion’s Parts
Distribution Centers, the dealership
has quick access to any parts it may
not have in stock.Scion Authorized Parts are covered by
their own warranty (see your dealer for
details) or the remainder of any
applicable New Vehicle Limited
Warranty, whichever is longer.
Non–Scion Authorized Parts, or any
damage or failures resulting from
their use, are not covered by any
Scion warranty.

Your Responsibilities29

BY GEOGRAPHIC REGION
In the United States, U.S.
Territories and Canada
To obtain warranty service in the United
States, U.S. territories or Canada, take
your vehicle to an Authorized Servicing
Dealership. If your vehicle cannot be
driven, contact your nearest Authorized
Servicing Dealership for towing
assistance. You do not have to pay for
towing to the nearest Authorized
Servicing Dealership if your vehicle is
inoperable due to failure of a warranted
part.
Outside the United States,
U.S. Territories and Canada
If you are using your vehicle outside the
United States, U.S. territories and
Canada and need warranty service,
contact a local Authorized Servicing
Dealership. Please note, however, that
your vehicle may not be repaired free of
charge because the local Authorized
Servicing Dealership distributor may
have no obligation to provide warranty
service for your vehicle, and/or your
vehicle may not comply with local
regulatory or environmental
requirements.
EMERGENCY REPAIRS
If your vehicle is inoperable or unsafe
to drive and there is no Authorized
Servicing Dealership reasonably
available to make repairs, you may
perform the repairs yourself or have
them performed by another automotive
service provider. Scion will reimburse
you for any of the repairs that are
covered by warranty. To receive
reimbursement, present to an
Authorized Servicing Dealership your
paid repair invoices and any parts that
were removed from the vehicle. You will
be reimbursed for warranted parts at
the manufacturer’s suggested retail
price and warranted labor at a
geographically appropriate hourly rate
multiplied by Scion’s recommended
time allowance for the repair.
If your vehicle requires emergency
repair, Scion assumes no liability for
subsequent failures caused by
improper repairs or the use of
non-Scion Authorized Parts unless you
have the vehicle properly repaired in a
timely manner. To ensure that warranty
coverage remains intact, have your
vehicle inspected by an Authorized
Servicing Dealership as soon as
possible after an emergency repair.

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
To make sure your warranty coverage
stays intact, you need to maintain your
Scion according to the
recommendations in this booklet. You
should keep records of vehicle
maintenance, including date and
mileage at time of service and a
description of service items performed
and parts installed. The scheduled
maintenance log can help you keep
track of this information. If you sell
your car, be sure to give your
maintenance records to the new owner.
Scion will not deny a warranty claim
solely because you don’t have records
to show that you maintained your
vehicle. However, damage or failures
caused by lack of proper maintenance
are not covered under warranty.
Maintenance Providers
You can have maintenance and repair
services done by any automotive
service provider you choose, or you can
do them yourself. Scion won’t deny a
warranty claim solely because you used
a service provider other than a Scion
dealership for maintenance and
repairs. However, damage or failures
caused by improper maintenance or
repairs are not covered under warranty.
NOTE:Only Scion dealerships and
Toyota dealerships are authorized to
provide warranty service/repairs for
your Scion.
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.

warranty coverages, see the
