Who Is the Warrantor
The warrantor for these limited
warranties is Lexus, a division of
Toyota Motor Sales, U.S.A., Inc.,
19001 South Western Avenue,
Torrance, California 90509-2991,
a California corporation.
Which Vehicles Are Covered
These warranties apply to 2015
model-year Lexus GS 350 models
registered and normally operated
in the United States, U.S. territories
and Canada. Warranty coverage is
automatically transferred at no cost
to subsequent vehicle owners.
Multiple Warranty Conditions
This booklet contains warranty
terms and conditions that may vary
depending on the part covered. A
warranty for specific parts or systems,
such as the Powertrain Warranty or
Emission Performance Warranty,
is governed by the coverage set
forth in that warranty as well as the
General Warranty Provisions.
When Warranty Begins
The warranty period begins on the
vehicle’s in-service date, which is
the first date the vehicle is either
delivered to an ultimate purchaser,
leased, or used as a company car
or demonstrator.
Repairs Made at No Charge
Repairs and adjustments covered
by these warranties are made at
no charge for parts and labor.
Parts Replacement
Any needed parts replacement will be
made using new or remanufactured
parts. The decision whether a part
should be repaired or replaced will
be made by the servicing Lexus
dealership and/or Lexus. Parts
scheduled to be replaced as required
maintenance are warranted until
their first replacement only.
Note: Lexus remanufactured parts
meet or exceed all factory standards
for safety, quality and reliability.

cover the following:

warranty provided by the tire
manufac turer. See page 34.
Normal Wear and Tear
Noise, vibration, cosmetic conditions
and other deterioration caused by
normal wear and tear.
Maintenance Expense*
Normal maintenance services such as
engine tune-ups; replacement of fluids
and filters; lubrication; cleaning and
polishing; replacement of spark plugs
and fuses; and replacement of worn
wiper blades, brake pads/linings and
clutch linings.
Vehicles with Altered Odometer
Failure of a vehicle on which the
odometer has been altered so that
actual vehicle mileage cannot be
readily determined.
Vehicles with Unknown
Vehicle Identification Number
Any vehicle for which the original
factory-assigned vehicle identification
number cannot be determined.
Salvage or Total-Loss Vehicles
Any vehicle that has ever been issued
a “salvage” title or similar title under
any state’s law; or has ever been
declared a “total loss” or equivalent
by a financial institution or insurer,
such as by payment for a claim in lieu
of repairs because the cost of repairs
exceeded the cash value of the
vehicle. This exclusion does not apply
to the emission control warranties.
Incidental Damages

associated with a vehicle failure. Such
damages include but are not limited to
inconvenience; the cost of transportation,

You are responsible for perfor-
mance 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 noncompli-
ance 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 you use replacement parts that

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 Genuine Lexus 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
autho rized Lexus dealership and
present a copy of the smog-check 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.”
