IF YOU NEED ASSISTANCE
B
oth Toyota and your Toyota dealer  
are dedicated to serving your 
automotive needs. Your complete 
satisfaction is our first priority. Should   
you have a problem or concern — either 
during or after the warranty period —   
please take the following steps to ensure   
the quickest possible response:
Step 1
Discuss the situation with a dealership 
manager, such as the service manager   
or customer relations manager. In most   
cases, a satisfactory solution can be   
reached at this step.
Step 2
If the dealership does not address your 
concern to your satisfaction, call the   
Toyota Customer Experience Center   
at  (800) 331-4331.
Please have the following information   
ready when you call:
•
 
Y
 our Toyota’s vehicle identification number 
(located on the driver’s side corner of the 
dashboard, under the windshield)
•
 
C
 urrent mileage on your vehicle
•
 
N
 ame of your Toyota dealership
A Toyota customer relations representative 
will assist you in working with the dealership 
to find a satisfactory solution.
Step 3
If your concern has still not been resolved   
to your satisfaction, Toyota offers   
additional assistance through the Dispute 
Settlement Program, a dispute resolution 
program administered by the National   
Center for Dispute Settlement. The   
purpose of the Dispute Settlement   
Program is to resolve disputes through 
arbitration — a process by which two   
parties 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   
customer 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
Mt. Clemens, MI 48046
To initiate arbitration, you must complete   
a NCDS customer claim form and mail it   
to NCDS. To request a form, call NCDS  
at (800) 777-8119 or obtain a copy at  
www.ncdsusa.org. When you call,  
please have your vehicle identification  
number, the current mileage on your  
Toyota and the names of your selling and   
servicing dealerships.

GENERAL INFORMATION
You are responsible for ensuring that  
your Toyota is operated and maintained 
according to the instructions in the   
Owner’s  Manual and this booklet.
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 this booklet. If you sell your 
vehicle, you should give your maintenance 
records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim   
solely because you do not have records 
to show that you maintained your vehicle. 
However, damage or failure caused by   
lack of proper maintenance is not   
covered under warranty.
WHERE TO GO   
FOR MAINTENANCE
You may have maintenance performed   
on your vehicle by any qualified person  
or facility. However, Toyota recommends 
having maintenance performed by an 
authorized Toyota dealership.
Toyota dealership technicians are specially 
trained to maintain and repair Toyota   
vehicles. They stay current on the latest 
service information through Toyota   
technical bulletins, service publications   
and training courses. Many are also   
certified through the Toyota Certification 
Program, which involves a series of   
rigorous written examinations. Feel free   
to ask any Toyota dealership to show you   
their technicians’ credentials.
You can be confident you’re getting the   
best possible service for your vehicle   
when you take it to a Toyota dealership.

OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

WARRANTY  

 
IMPORTANT MAINTENANCE 
INFORMATION
It is especially important to both  
routinely check your vehicle’s engine   
oil level (once a month) and regularly 
replace the engine oil and oil filter   
(see the Maintenance Log section of   
this booklet to determine how often   
you should change your vehicle’s oil   
and filter). Failure to do so can cause   
oil starvation and/or oil gelling, which   
can result in severe damage to your 
vehicle and require costly repairs that   
are not covered by the New Vehicle 
Limited Warranty.
Maintenance Records
Maintaining your vehicle according to   
the recommendations in this booklet is 
required to ensure that your warranty 
coverage remains intact. You should keep 
detailed records of vehicle maintenance, 
including date of service, mileage at time   
of service and a description of service   
and/or parts installation performed. The 
scheduled maintenance log in this booklet   
can help you document this information. If 
you sell your vehicle, be sure to give your 
maintenance records to the new owner.
Toyota will not deny a warranty claim   
solely because you do not have records 
to show that you maintained your vehicle. 
However, damage or failure caused by lack   
of proper maintenance is not covered   
under warranty.
 
 
Maintenance Providers 
Maintenance and repair services may be 
performed by you or by any automotive 
service provider you choose. Toyota will   
not deny a warranty claim solely because   
you used a service provider other than a 
Toyota dealership for maintenance and 
repairs. However, damage or failure   
caused by improper maintenance or   
repairs is not covered under warranty.
Dealer-Recommended 
Maintenance
Your dealer may recommend more   
frequent maintenance intervals or more 
maintenance services than those listed in   
the scheduled maintenance log. These 
additional services are not required to 
maintain your warranty coverage. Ask 
your dealer to explain any recommended 
maintenance not included in the scheduled 
maintenance log.
For a complete description of Toyota 
warranty coverages, see the Warranty 
Information portion of this booklet.

MAINTAINING YOUR WARRANTY
Maintenance Log 
MAINTENANCE  

R
egular maintenance is essential 
to obtaining the highest level of 
performance from your Toyota. It  
can also increase your vehicle’s resale   
value. This booklet presents Toyota’s 
maintenance recommendations in   
convenient checklists, so you can easily   
see what type of maintenance your   
vehicle needs and document that the   
work was performed.
To ensure that your vehicle receives   
first-quality service and parts, Toyota 
recommends having maintenance   
performed by an authorized Toyota   
dealership. Toyota dealership technicians   
are experts on Toyota vehicles, and they   
use Genuine Toyota Parts designed to   
your vehicle’s exact specifications. When 
you go to a Toyota dealership, you can be 
confident that they will use Genuine Toyota 
parts and have Toyota-trained technicians.
Miles or Months?
Toyota recommends obtaining scheduled 
maintenance for your vehicle every   
7,500 miles or six months, whichever   
comes first.
For example:
•
  
I
f you drive 7,500 miles in less than six 
months, you should obtain maintenance   
at  7,500 miles  — don’t wait until six months. •
 
 
I
 f at six months you have driven less 
 
than 7,500 miles, you should obtain 
maintenance at six months  — don’t  
wait until 5,000 miles.
Be sure to keep an eye on your mileage 
so that you obtain maintenance when 
recommended. If you are a low-mileage   
driver, mark your calendar to remind   
yourself to obtain maintenance every   
six months.
Documenting Your Investment
To help you verify that you’ve invested in 
proper maintenance, each maintenance 
checklist includes space for your Toyota 
dealership to certify that you obtained 
Genuine Toyota Service for your vehicle. 
The dealership may mark the dealer 
service verification area with the following 
stamp (which may be customized with the 
dealership’s name):
