Service Agreements and Pre-Paid Maintenance
Extended Service Coverage
Toyota vehicle service agreements provide protection against unexpected repairs
formechanical breakdown of covered components beyond the factory warranty.
*
They 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 agreement coverage, each
with a variety of time and mileage options.
**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 recommended mainte-
nance — 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 inter-
vals 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.
Vehicle 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.
