100k and expiring warranty

[j0esmoe13]

I'm at 98,800 miles and am approaching the expiration of my extended warranty. I was recently in for service and had a water pump replaced. Is there anything I should have Toyota check that is typically nearing the end of its useful life at 100k miles?

When our warranty was ready to expire, I took our car to a private mechanic for an inspection. He found 4 things that he thought needed fixed. The dealership fixed 3, and we drove the car for several more years with no major problems.

Following up my original post... Toyota found no other others when the car was in for service 2 weeks ago. I did buy new tires and have the car aligned.

Had the follow issue happen on Saturday. When I returned to my vehicle my battery was totally drained. AAA came for the jump and we quickly noticed by daytime running lights were not turning off. I drove to Toyota and they pulled up a "Toyota Safety Bulletin" regarding this. They are now replacing a junction box within the electrical system. $325 saved thanks to my soon-to-be-expired warranty.

Is there anyway for me to enter in my VIN online and find any other TSB that may apply to my vehicle? I am at 99,650 miles and my platinum warranty expires at 100,000. Any help is GREATLY appreciated. Thanks.

Someone on this forum posted such a site a few years back when the rash of problems first surfaced in Toyotaland.

Just as an FYI, TSB stands for "Technical Service Bulletin", not "Toyota Safety Bulletin", as many other manufacturers have TSBs as well.
