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. If you are hearing- or
speech-impaired, call (800) 443-4999
(TDD).
To help everything move quickly, please
have the following information at hand
when you call:
› Your Scion’s vehicle identification num-
ber (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 — a process by which two par-
ties 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 cus-
tomer claim form in the
Owner’s Warranty
Rights Notification
booklet (found in your
glove box) and mail it to:
National Center for Dispute Settlement
P.O. Box 688

11Your Warranties in Detail
17922.Guts.qxd:Scion Warranty_text 2/22/08 8:00 PM Page 11
You are responsible for ensuring that your
Scion is operated and maintained accord-
ing to the instructions in the
Owner’s
Manual
and the Scheduled Maintenance
Guide
.
You should keep detailed records of vehicle
maintenance, since under some circum-
stances 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 conve-
nience, 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 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 Author -
ized Parts designed specifically for your
vehicle.
GENERAL INFORMATION WHERE TO
GO FOR
MAINTENANCE
OPERATION AND 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 main-
tain 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.
