You are responsible for performance
of the required maintenance indicated
in the Owner’s Manual and this guide.
Lexus will not deny a warranty claim
solely because you do not have
records to show that you maintained
your vehicle. However, any failure
or noncompliance caused by lack
of maintenance is not covered by
this warranty.
When maintenance and repairs
are paid for by you, these services
may be performed by you or by
any automotive service provider
you choose. Lexus will not deny
a warranty claim solely because
you used a service provider other
than a Lexus dealership for main-
tenance and repairs. However, any
failure or noncompliance caused by
improper maintenance or repairs
is not covered by this warranty. To ensure optimum performance
and maintain the quality built into
your vehicle’s emission control
systems, Lexus recommends the
use of Genuine Lexus 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-Genuine
Lexus Parts for maintenance and
repairs. However, use of replace-
ment parts that are not equivalent
in quality to Genuine Lexus Parts
may impair the effectiveness of
the emission control systems.
If you use replacement parts that
have maintenance or replacement
schedules different from those of
Genuine Lexus 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 equivalent to
Genuine Lexus Parts.

If your vehicle fails an EPA-approved
emissions test, you may make a claim
under the Emission Performance
Warranty. To do so, take your vehicle
to an authorized Lexus dealership and
present a copy of the emissions test
report. Also, take your maintenance
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, Lexus 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 Lexus or the dealership.
For information on how to obtain
service under the Emission
Defect Warranty, see page 37,
“Obtaining Warranty Service.”If you have questions or concerns
about your vehicle’s federal emission
warranty coverage, please follow the
steps described on pages 9–10. In
the case of the Emission Performance
Warranty, you may also request infor-
mation from or report complaints to:

and used in accordance with the
written instructions for proper
maintenance and use, Lexus will

of charge under the terms of the
Emission Performance Warranty.

The California Air Resources Board
(CARB) and Lexus are pleased to
explain the emission control system
warranty for your 2014 vehicle. In
California, new motor vehicles must
be designed, built and equipped to
meet the state’s stringent anti-smog
standards. CARB regulations require
that Lexus must warrant the emission
control system on your vehicle
for the time periods indicated on
the next page, provided there has
been 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, Lexus 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:
• If your vehicle fails a smog-check
test, all necessary repairs and
adjustments will be made by
Lexus to ensure that your
vehicle passes the test. This is
your Emission Control System
PERFORMANCE WARRANTY.

on pages 23–24 is defective, the
part will be repaired or replaced
by Lexus. This is your SHORT-
TERM Emission Control System
DEFECT WARRANTY.
Note: Under the terms of
the Basic Warranty, Lexus
provides coverage of four
years or 50,000 miles,
whichever occurs first. Specific
components may have longer
coverage under the terms of

lack of receipts or your failure to
ensure the performance of all
scheduled maintenance.

your vehicle to a Lexus dealership
as soon as a problem exists.
The warranty repairs should be
completed in a reasonable amount
of time, not to exceed 30 days.

may deny you warranty coverage if
your vehicle or a part has failed due
to abuse, neglect, improper mainte -
nance or unapproved modifications.

sibilities, you should contact the
