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

WARRANTY


REPLACEMENT PARTS
To ensure optimum performance and
maintain the quality built into your
vehicle’s emission control systems,
Toyo t a recommends the use of Toyo t a
Genuine 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 parts that are not Toyota Genuine
Parts for maintenance and repairs.
However, use of replacement parts
that are not equivalent in quality to
Toyota Genuine 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 Toyo t a Genuine
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
Toyo t a Genuine Parts.

IF YOUR VEHICLE FAILS
AN EMISSIONS TEST
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
Toyo t a dealership and present a copy
of the emissions test report. Also, take
your maintenance records in case they
are needed.
If your claim qualies for coverage, the
dealership will repair your vehicle within
30 days (unless a shorter period is
required by law). If your claim is denied,
Toyo t a 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 Toyo t a or the dealership.
For information on how to obtain service
under the Emission Defect Warranty, see
page 32, “Obtaining Warranty Service.”

MAINTAINING YOUR WARRANTY

IMP OR TA N T 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 lter
(see the Maintenance Log section of
this booklet to determine how often
you should change your vehicle’s oil
and lter). 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.
Toyo t a 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. Toyo t a will
not deny a warranty claim solely because
you used a service provider other than a
Toyo t a 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.

warranty coverages, see the Warranty
Information portion of this booklet.

USING THE MAINTENANCE LOG CHARTS
R
egular maintenance is essential
to obtaining the highest level of
performance, safety and reliability
from your Toyo t a . It can also increase
your vehicle’s resale value. This
booklet presents Toyo t a’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
rst-quality service and parts, Toyo t a
recommends having maintenance
performed by an authorized Toyo t a
dealership. Toyo t a dealership technicians
are experts on Toyo t a vehicles, and they
use Toyo t a Genuine Parts designed to
your vehicle’s exact specications. When
you go to a Toyo t a dealership, you can be
condent that they will use Toyo t a Genuine
Parts and have Toyota-trained technicians.
Miles or Months?
Toyo t a recommends obtaining scheduled
maintenance for your vehicle every
5,000 miles or six months, whichever
comes rst.
For example:
• If you drive 5,000 miles in less than six
months, you should obtain maintenance
at 5,000 miles — don’t wait until six months.
• If at six months you have driven less
than 5,000 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
dr i ver, 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 Toyo t a
dealership to certify that you obtained
Genuine Toyo t a Service for your vehicle.
The dealership may mark the dealer
service verication area with the following
stamp (which may be customized with the
dealership’s name):
