What Warranty Coverage Comes with New Toyota Vehicles?
New Toyota automobiles feature the following warranty coverage:
- Basic Coverage is 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the date of first use and covers all components excluding normal wear and maintenance items. This warranty covers repairs and adjustments required to correct defects in materials or workmanship or any part supplied by Toyota, subject to exceptions.
- Powertrain Coverage is 60 months or 60,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the date of first use and includes the engine, transmission/transaxle, front-wheel-drive system and rear-wheel drive system.

- Emissions Coverage varies under Federal and California regulations. Please refer to the vehicle's Warranty and Maintenance Guide booklet for full details.
The warranty period begins on the vehicle's in-service date, which is the first date the car is either delivered to the original purchaser, lessor, or used as a company car or demo vehicle.
What About Toyota Hybrid Model Warranty Coverage?
If you drive one of the many Toyota hybrid models -- whether that be a member of the Prius family or maybe a Camry Hybrid or RAV4 Hybrid -- your vehicle is also covered by an additional warranty package from Toyota.
On top of Toyota's standard Basic, Powertrain, Rust-Through and Emissions coverage, your Toyota hybrid also gets a warranty plan for its hybrid-related components, in the form of 8 years or 100,000 miles of coverage for its:
