Hi everyone I have 35200 Miles on my 2009 Toyota Camry Standard Edition.
I was wondering what the general consensus is about things to check before your 3 year 36k bumper to bumper warranty expires on Toyota Camry's.
Please let me know as soon as possible.
As a note for reference:
I have had them check and replace my battery which failed a load test.
-They fixed my rear rotars and serviced my front brakes
-Replaced Brakepads
-Checked thoroughly my A/C Unit
Got my usual Oil Change and Rotate Tires at 35K miles
my idea is to also have them check my electronic Throttle, Power Steering and suspension parts too.
Does anyone recommend an extended warranty on the car?
Thanks!
i think you are out of time to buy the extended warranty..??
when i bought my camry, i was told there isn't any "grace period" you buy now or forget it.. when i bought my fords, chevy's even my motorcycles, i had up to the the last day in the last year of the factory warranty, to buy the extended warranty.......so i don't know if toyota will allow buying this extra this late.
maybe toyota offers a "3rd party warranty".....????
You can buy the warranty from the dealer in Mass. who discounts it. Search this forum for the name, it excapes me right now. But you have to prove it is under 36000 miles, so get cracking. These are just an insurance policy on the car's mechanics, so if you have had problems already, then buy it, if not, then no.

Just out of curiousity, how are you getting the dealer to check all of these items if there is nothing wrong with them. I assume they aren't getting any money for doing this unless you claim there is something wrong or are you assuming they are going to check all of these items for free? I didn't think that even the bumper to bumper warranty would cover checkout of things that might break.

actually i had them check out minor issues that i didn't really think were anything too crazy but they ended up finding thigns that needed to be replaced while doing the check.
