The California Air Resources Board (CARB) and Scion are
pleased to explain the emission control system warranty for
your 2005 vehicle. In California, new motor vehicles must be

no abuse, neglect or improper maintenance of your vehicle.
Your emission control system may include parts such as the
fuel injection system, ignition system, catalytic converter and
engine computer. Also included may be hoses, belts, connectors
and other emissions-related assemblies.
Where a warrantable condition exists, Scion will repair your
vehicle at no cost to you, including diagnosis, parts and labor.1) For three years or 50,000 miles, whichever occurs first:

the part will be repaired or replaced by Scion. This is your
Short-Term Emission Control System Defect Warranty.

nents may have longer coverage under the terms of the

PARTS LIST: LONG-TERM EMISSION
DEFECT WARRANTYMAINTENANCE

To ensure optimum performance and maintain the quality built
into your vehicle’s emission control systems, Scion recommends
the use of Scion Authorized Parts when servicing or repairing
the systems.
Warranty coverage is not dependent upon the use of any
particular brand of replacement parts, and you may elect to
use non-Scion Authorized Parts for maintenance and repairs.
However, use of replacement parts that are not equivalent in
quality to Scion Authorized Parts may impair the effective-
ness of the emission control systems.
If you use replacement parts that have maintenance or replace-
ment schedules different from those of Scion Authorized Parts,
you must follow the maintenance and replacement schedules
for the parts you are using. In addition, you should ensure that
such parts are warranted by their manufacturers to be equiva-
lent to Scion Authorized Parts.If your vehicle fails a smog-check test, you may make a claim
under the Emission Performance Warranty. To do so, take your
vehicle to an Authorized Servicing Dealership and present a
copy of the smog-check test report. Also, take your mainte-
nance records in case they are needed.
If your claim qualifies for coverage, the dealership will repair
your vehicle within 30 days (unless a shorter period is required
by law). If your claim is denied, Scion will notify you in writing
of the reason within the same period. If we fail to do so, we will
repair your vehicle free of charge. The only exceptions allowed
are when you request or agree to a delay, or when a delay is
caused by factors beyond the control of Scion or the dealership.

Defect Warranty, see page 28, “Obtaining Warranty Service.”

Your Warranties in Detail23
California Emission Control Warranty ‹‹

You are responsible for ensuring that your Scion is operated and
maintained according to the instructions in the
Owner’s Manual
and the Scheduled Maintenance Guide.
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 the
Scheduled Maintenance Guide. 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. How-
ever, damage or failures caused by improper maintenance or
lack of maintenance are not covered under warranty.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 bul-
letins, 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.

GENERAL INFORMATION WHERE TO GO FOR MAINTENANCE

Warranty coverage is not dependent upon the use of any partic-
ular 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.
