Quality Control
You may have noticed a few miles
on the odometer when you took
delivery of your Lexus. This mileage
is a result of the comprehensive
process used to ensure the quality of
your vehicle. This process includes
ex tensive inspections during and
after production. The final inspection
takes place at the selling dealership
and includes a road-test conducted
by a trained Lexus technician.
If you’d like to know more about Lexus
quality-control procedures, ask a
Lexus dealership service consultant.
Vehicle service History
When you have your vehicle serviced
at a Lexus dealership, your service
information is recorded in the Lexus
National Service History database.
This is the first database of its kind
in the automotive industry. It can be
accessed by any Lexus dealership in
the United States — a great conve-
nience if you relocate or need to have
your vehicle serviced while traveling.
Vehicle service Agreements
If you plan to keep your vehicle for
several years or if you accumulate
mileage quickly, you may want to
purchase a Lexus vehicle service
agreement. These agreements cover
the cost of specific repairs beyond
the factory warranty period. They
also cover services such as towing,
substitute transportation and lodging
to minimize your inconvenience
should your vehicle require repair.
Lexus vehicle service agreements
are available with a variety of
coverage options. A Lexus dealer-
ship sales consultant can help you
select the plan that’s best for you.
Body repairs
If you’re involved in a collision, you
want your vehicle to be returned
to its pre-accident condition when
repaired. That’s why it is important to
make sure repairs are made only with
Genuine Lexus Parts. Some repair
shops and insurance companies may
suggest using imitation or salvaged
parts to save money. However,
these parts do not meet Lexus’ high
standards for quality, fit and corrosion
resistance. In addition, imitation and
salvaged parts (and any damage
or failures they may cause) are not
covered by any Lexus warranty.
The best way to ensure that your
vehicle is repaired with Genuine Lexus
Parts is to take it to a Lexus dealership.
Each dealership works with selected
collision repair centers that meet
Lexus’ strict requirements for training,
