INTRODUCTION
W
e realize that your confidence
in the quality and reliability
of our products was a key
factor in your decision to buy a Toyota.
We also know how disruptive the loss
of transportation can be to your daily
routine. That’s why we’re pleased
to offer you the benefits of our
Transportation Assistance Policy.
Under this policy, you are eligible
for transportation assistance if your
Toyota must be kept overnight for
warranty-covered repairs. The policy
applies when your vehicle must be kept
overnight for any of the following reasons:
• The warranty repairs will take longer
than one day to complete.
• The warrantable condition requires
extensive diagnosis.
• The parts needed for the warranty
repairs are not readily available and
your vehicle is inoperative or unsafe
to drive.
The policy does not apply when warranty
repairs can be completed in one day but
the vehicle must be kept overnight due to
dealer or owner scheduling conflicts.
The Transportation Assistance Policy
applies for the duration of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. The policy applies to all
2021 model-year Toyotas sold and
serviced by authorized Toyota dealerships
in the mainland United States and Alaska.
For further details, please consult your
Toyota dealer.

the Dispute Settlement Program
(CDSP). You may also be required to
