Has the validity of the guarantee booklet presented by the customer been proved?

Have the required service intervals been respected and maintenance work been carried out properly, especially when the loss is causally linked to completion of this work?

Is the loss/scope of repairs covered by the guarantee conditions?

The Toyota company (guarantee provider) from whom the guarantee was acquired is responsible in the first instance for checking damage covered by the guarantee.

If, however, the customer (guarantee holder) is unable to bring his faulty vehicle to the guarantee-providing company for damage assessment and repair, necessary repair covered by the guarantee conditions can be carried out by another contract Toyota service garage.

The Toyota dealer is to report the damage for further investigation after the work has been carried out directly to Toyota FREY Austria GmbH. via the Toyota guarantee system within 14 days regardless of whether he is a member of the Toyota Extracare Guarantee programme.

If the cause or extent of a reported claim cannot immediately be clarified on notification, an expert report can be requested.

The safekeeping time limit for old components corresponds to the guarantee conditions in the manufacturer’s guarantee (although at least 3 months).

Claims are settled after the repairs have been completed in a regular manner. Please note the following points in this respect:

• ·Work will be paid for in accordance with the manufacturer’s work time index at the hourly rate agreed with you previously on an annual basis.
• Payment for parts is made on the basis of the sale price, which is guided by Toyota FREY Austria GmbH’s non-compulsory recommended price.
• The maximum level of payment comprises the vehicle purchase price.

If you have carried out approved repairs in your capacity as a guarantee-provider, you will be directly reimbursed for the repair costs by Toyota FREY Austria GmbH via the guarantee system.

If the repair has been carried out by a different service garage, the refund will also be made via the guarantee system, with the costs accompanied by the repair invoice being entered as outside invoice costs

The Toyota Extracare insurance is only valid when the stay is shorter than 90 consecutive days in the countries set out in the guarantee booklet. In the event of a breakdown please contact Toyota Eurocare in your home country if possible and follow the instructions given exactly.

You are obliged to pay the repair costs arising abroad. When you return to your home country, you can present the invoice to your Toyota dealer (where possible, please enclose the faulty components). The costs will be refunded up to a maximum of the sum which repair in your home country would have cost, and following approval from the Toyota Extracare Guarantee Bureau.
