    The Warrantor for these limited warranties is Toyota Canada Inc., (“TOYOTA”), 1 Toyota Place, Scarborough, ON, M1H 1H9
  • WHEN DOES THE WARRANTY BEGIN?
    The warranty period begins on the warranty registration date as shown on the new vehicle information statement on the inside cover of this booklet. The warranty registration date is the original in-service date and may be earlier than the date of sale.
  • WHICH VEHICLES ARE COVERED?
    These warranties apply to all 2018 model-year Toyota vehicles distributed by Toyota, which are originally sold by an authorized dealer in Canada and normally operated or touring in Canada, United States or U.S. territories.
  • REPAIRS MADE AT NO CHARGE
    Repairs and adjustments covered by these warranties are made at no charge for parts and labour. Components will be repaired or replaced with new or remanufactured parts at the option of Toyota. Replaced components are warranted for the balance of the applicable New Vehicle Warranty.
  • WHAT IF MY VEHICLE MUST BE TOWED?
    When your vehicle is inoperative due to a warranted part failure, towing service is covered to the nearest Toyota Dealer. Should you require towing, contact the Toyota Roadside Assistance Centre at 1-888-TOYOTA-8. An authorized service provided will be dispatched to provide you with the necessary Roadside Assistance. Refer to the Roadside Assistance information on pages 27-31 for more details.

OWNER'S RESPONSIBILITY:

It is the owner’s responsibility to ensure that the vehicle is maintained and operated in accordance with the written instructions for proper maintenance and use contained in your Owner’s Manual and this Owner’s Manual Supplement.

Note: Please see your dealer for a customized copy of the maintenance menu, specific to your vehicle, and tailored to your driving habits.

In an emergency situation, where an authorized Toyota Dealer is not reasonably available, you may perform the repair or have the repair performed at any service establishment or by a person of your choosing. You will then be required to present the replaced parts and paid repair invoices to an authorized Toyota Dealer for reimbursement of the emergency repair cost. You will be reimbursed for warranted parts at the maximum manufacturer’s suggested retail price and warranted labour at a geographically appropriate hourly rate multiplied by Toyota’s recommended time allowance for the repair.

Maintenance records and receipts should be transferred to each subsequent owner.

EMISSION CONTROL WARRANTY

EMISSION DEFECT WARRANTY

Toyota warrants to owners of 2018 model year vehicles that the Toyota vehicle:

  • Was designed, built and equipped so as to conform, at the time of sale, with all applicable emission standards.
  • Is, at the time the warranty commences, free from defects in materials and workmanship, which may cause the vehicle to fail to conform with the applicable emission standards during the warranty period.

Toyota will provide you with coverage for the emission control parts listed under Item 1 on page 8 for 36 months or 60,000 kilometres, whichever comes first, under the terms of the New Vehicle Warranty. In addition, specific components may be entitled to additional coverage under the terms of the New Vehicle Warranty-Powertrain Component Coverage. Emission Standards also require that the specified major emission control components listed under Item 2 on page 9 are covered for 96 months or 130,000 kilometres, whichever comes first.

EMISSION PERFORMANCE WARRANTY

Some Provincial and Local jurisdictions may have established periodic vehicle inspection and maintenance (I/M) programs to encourage proper maintenance of your vehicle. If an approved I/M program is in force in your area, you are eligible for emission performance warranty coverage.

If the vehicle fails to conform to the applicable emission standards during the warranty period and such failure results or will result in you having to bear any penalty or other sanctions under local, provincial, or federal law, Toyota will make all adjustments, repairs or replacements that are necessary to ensure that the vehicle conforms to the applicable standard at no cost to you if:

  • The vehicle has been maintained and operated in compliance with the instructions for proper maintenance and use contained in your Owner’s Manual.
  • The vehicle has not been misused or tampered with in a manner which caused the vehicle to fail to comply with the applicable emission standard.
  • Fuel other than that specified in the Owner’s Manual has not been used.


Toyota will provide you with this coverage for 24 months from the warranty registration date or 40,000 kilometres, whichever comes first.

In addition, the specified major emission control components listed under Item 2 on page 9 will be covered for 96 months or 130,000 kilometres, whichever comes first.

STATEMENT OF EMISSION PERFORMANCE WARRANTY ENTITLEMENT

A claim under this warranty will only be available if the vehicle fails an emission short test used by a provincial emission inspection/maintenance program, which has been approved by Toyota. Usually, this means that an owner could be subject to a penalty under provincial law because of such failure. At the date of printing this warranty, some provinces did not have vehicle inspection/maintenance programs and had not enacted laws subjecting vehicle Owners to such penalties. Therefore, in some provinces or local areas, this warranty will not apply.

FACTS ABOUT THE EMISSION DEFECT AND PERFORMANCE WARRANTY

Replacement parts:

The emission control systems of your vehicle were designed, built, and tested using Toyota Genuine Parts. Your vehicle is certified as conforming to applicable emission control standards. It is recommended that Toyota Genuine Parts be used as replacement parts.

The use of non-Toyota parts and the performance of any maintenance or repair by a non-Toyota Dealer will not affect your emission defect or performance warranty coverage unless the replacement parts that are used are not of equivalent quality or capacity, or the repairs are not performed at the standard required and the effectiveness of the emission control systems is impaired.

IF YOUR VEHICLE FAILS AN EMISSION TEST:

A claim may be submitted immediately upon the failure of the vehicle to conform to the applicable standards by following these steps:

Take the vehicle to any authorized Toyota Dealer and present a copy of the emission short test report as evidence of failure. Also, take your maintenance records in case they are needed.

The Toyota Dealer will inspect your vehicle and determine the warranty applicability within a reasonable period of time (not to exceed 30 days) from your initial vehicle delivery date to any authorized Toyota Dealer or within the time period required by local or provincial law.
If, for any reason, the claim is denied, an explanation will be presented to you.
If Toyota fails to notify you of its decision within the time period specified, then Toyota shall be responsible for repairing the vehicle free of charge unless the delay is attributable to the Owner or factors beyond the control of Toyota or the Toyota Dealer. The dealer then you may contact:
