2001 TOYOTA MR2 SPYDER service interval

INTRODUCTION3
Maintenance & Toyota Warranty Coverage
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 ser-
vice and a description of service and/or parts installation
performed. The scheduled maintenance log in this booklet is a
good place to record 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 failures caused by lack of proper mainte-
nance are not covered under warranty.
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 failures caused by improper mainte-
nance or repairs are not covered under warranty.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 for an expla-
nation of any recommended maintenance not included in the
scheduled maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota warranty coverages,
see the booklet entitled
2001 Owner’s Warranty
Information
in your vehicle’s glove box.

Extended Service Coverage
Toyota vehicle service agreements provide protection against
unexpected repairs for mechanical breakdown beyond the fac-
tory warranty.
1They also protect you from increases in the cost
of covered repairs. In addition, many plans include benefits
such as towing, substitute transportation and travel protection
with lodging and meals.
Because they are factory- backed, Toyota service agreements are
accepted at all Toyota dealerships in the United States and
Canada. That means repairs are made only by factory- trained
technicians using Genuine Toyota Parts.
Toyota Financial Services offers several levels of service agree-
ment coverage, each with a variety of time and mileage options.
2
Your Toyota dealer can help you select the coverage that best
meets your needs.
Pre-Paid Maintenance
An excellent way to make sure your Toyota receives the recom-
mended maintenance — and to protect yourself from increases
in vehicle service costs — is to pay for maintenance services in
advance.
Toyota Auto Care pre- paid maintenance plans are available
for both new and used vehicles. Benefits include oil- and- filter
changes, lubrication of key chassis parts and a 19- point vehicle
inspection at each service interval. In addition, you receive
24- hour roadside assistance, timed service reminders and a
computerized history of each service visit. The Premium Plan
(available for new vehicles) also includes tire rotations and
factory- recommended maintenance at service intervals of
15,000, 30,000 and 45,000 miles.
Toyota Auto Care plans offer two coverage levels as well as
several options for service intervals, time and mileage. Ask your
Toyota dealer to help you select the options that are best for you.
1Vehicle service agreements are offered by Toyota Motor Insurance Services, Inc., dba Toyota
Motor Services Company in certain states. In Florida, offered by Toyota Motor Insurance
Company.
