In our continuing efforts to ensure the best in customer satisfaction, ToyotaeBay logo is announcing a Customer Support
Program to provide coverage for peeling of certain colors of factory-applied paint.
Background
ToyotaeBay logo has received reports of paint peeling on certain vehicles with the original factory-applied Blizzard Pearl
or Super White paint colors. These reports indicate that vehicles with these specific paint colors, applied
during the vehicle manufacturing process, may experience paint peeling on exterior metal body panels.
Although the original factory paint is covered by ToyotaeBay logo’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty for 3 years or 36,000
miles (whichever comes first), we at ToyotaeBay logo care about the customers’ ownership experience. ToyotaeBay logo is
providing coverage for repairs related to the condition described above.
The following information is provided to inform you and your staff of the program notification schedule and
your degree of involvement.

Customer Support Program ZKG - D - Page |2

Customer Support Program Coverage Details
This Customer Support Program provides coverage for involved vehicles with the original factory Blizzard
Pearl or Super White paint. The covered condition may occur when sunlight over time degrades the
adhesion between the factory-applied paint primer coat layer and the base metal electrodeposition layer
causing the paint to peel from the metal body panel. If the condition is verified, the specific panel affected
will be repainted.

The Primary Coverage will be offered until December 11, 2022, regardless of mileage.

After the Primary Coverage, the Secondary Coverage is applicable for 10 years from the date of
first use, regardless of mileage.

Note:
Damage to the vehicle exterior (such as collision damage, deep scratches, dents, etc..) may prevent a repair
facility from performing the paint repair covered by this Customer Support Program.
This Customer Support Program does not cover repair of such damage.
If any damage must be repaired prior to performing the paint repair covered by this Customer Support
Program, the dealer may offer to repair the damage at the customer’s expense.
Examples of damage that might prevent paint repair are:
• Collision damage.
• Dents.
• Deep scratches.
• Deep rock chips.
This coverage is for work performed at an authorized ToyotaeBay logo dealer only*. It is subject to the same terms and
conditions set forth in the New Vehicle Limited Warranty Section of the Owner’s Warranty Information
booklet.
*Only authorized ToyotaeBay logo dealerships (and ToyotaeBay logo Certified Collision Centers) are authorized to confirm if the
paint peeling condition is covered by this program. However, after confirming that the paint peeling
condition is covered by this program, the authorized ToyotaeBay logo dealership may choose to coordinate to have
the repainting repair performed by a non-ToyotaeBay logo repair facility (e.g. third-party collision repair facility, body
shop, etc.).
Covered Vehicles
There are now approximately 1,770,440 vehicles covered by this Customer Support Program. There are
approximately 29,900 vehicles covered by this Customer Support Program that were distributed to Puerto
Rico.

that they may have. A Q&A is provided to assure a consistent message is communicated.
Customers with additional questions or concerns are asked to please contact the ToyotaeBay logo Customer Experience
Center (1-888-270-9371) - Monday through Friday, 7:00 am to 7:00 pm, Saturday 7:00 am to 4:30 pm Central
Time.
Customer Marketing
Direct marketing of this Customer Support Program is strictly prohibited pursuant to the ToyotaeBay logo Warranty
Policy 5.21, “Warranty Solicitation.” Non-compliance of this policy may result in a claim debit.
Media Contacts
It is imperative that all media contacts (local and national) receive a consistent message. In this regard, all
media contacts must be directed to Tania Saldana (859) 815-9968 in ToyotaeBay logo Corporate Communications.
Please do not provide this number to customers. Please provide this contact only to media.
Parts Ordering Process - Non SET and GST Parts Ordering Process
The repair for this customer support program involves re-painting the area of the vehicle exterior affected by
the condition and; therefore, may involve replacing non-reusable parts such as emblems, clips/retainers,
windshield glass adhesive, etc.
Any parts replaced under this program must be*:
1. ToyotaeBay logo Genuine Parts.
2. Must be included in the parts section of the warranty claim.
*This does not apply to refinishing products and surface preparation products such as paints, primers, sand
paper, metal conditioner, etc..
As this is a Customer Support Program, the condition MUST be verified by inspecting the vehicle. Therefore,
dealers SHOULD NOT increase their stock of related repair parts. Dealers are requested to only order parts for
vehicles experiencing this condition once verified. DO NOT ORDER FOR STOCK. As always, if a customer
experiences the condition described, dealers should conduct appropriate diagnosis and order the applicable
parts.
It is possible that some of the parts necessary for performing this campaign are either required to be ordered
in Campaign Part Order Request (CPOR) on Service Lane, or have been placed on Manual Allocation Control
(MAC) due to potential limited part availability. Please check the CPOR/MAC report on Dealer Daily for the
most up-to-date parts ordering information.

1. Verifying if the paint condition is covered by this Customer Support Program (T-SB-0162-19 or S-SB0004-19).
2. Ensuring there is no damage that requires repair prior to performing the Customer Support Program

code, your dealership may sublet the repainting repair to a non-ToyotaeBay logo certified repair facility (third-party

repainting repair.
Parts Recovery Procedures
All parts replaced as part of this Customer Support Program must be turned over to the parts department
until appropriate disposition is determined. The parts department must retain these parts until notification via
the Parts Recovery System (PRS) is received indicating whether to ship or scrap the parts. These parts are
utilized by various departments for defect analysis, quality control analysis, product evaluation, as well as
other purposes.
To help minimize dealer storage challenges, ToyotaeBay logo recommends that dealers:
• File the campaign claim accurately and promptly. The time a dealer is required to hold parts is based on
when the campaign claim is paid by ToyotaeBay logo.
• Monitor the Warranty Parts Recovery Notifications and Part Scrap Report regularly.

Sublet:
• The total cost of the final invoice from the body shop should be included in the sublet section as sublet
type “PT”. A copy of the invoice is required to be attached.
• DO NOT include the actual cost of parts in the sublet section. The actual cost of parts should be subtracted
from the sublet bill if they are included in the body shop’s final invoice. Parts should ONLY be claimed in
the parts section of the warranty claim.
• In the very rare case that your dealership was required to use the damp cloth confirmation procedure
described in T-SB-0162-19 (ToyotaeBay logo) or S-SB-0004-19 (ScioneBay logo), claim the cost under sublet type “ZZ” using
the following formula: 0.3 hours x Dealer Hourly Warranty Labor Rate x the number of panels where the
condition was confirmed using the damp cloth confirmation procedure. Photos must be attached to the
claim showing that the condition exists after the damp cloth confirmation.
Labor Rate for Body and Paint Work:
As provided in Policy 8.22, a dealership’s service department mechanical rate may not be used for the body
and paint work performed under ZKG. If the work is performed by the dealership’s own body shop, the labor
rate used for calculation of labor charges must be the posted body shop labor rate, not the service
department’s mechanical rate. If the work is performed as a sublet by an independent body shop, as provided
in Policy 4.12, the sublet repair shop’s invoice must include the reasonable and customary repair shop rate,
not the dealership’s service department rate.
Important Note: As provided in Policy 5.3, pre-authorization is required to submit a claim for paint repairs
exceeding $1,000, or as required in any Policy or Procedure. For ZKG work, this pre-authorization is obtained
at the ZKG website (“warranty pre-approval code”) by a dealer submitting a preliminary estimate and photos.
As provided in Policy 5.3, this authorization to submit a claim is not a guarantee for payment of the claim,
which is subject to ToyotaeBay logo’s review, including proper claim submission and compliance with ToyotaeBay logo Warranty
Policy and Procedures. In addition, a dealer claim for the work must follow the labor rate policies described
in this Dealer Letter and ToyotaeBay logo Warranty Policy and Procedures.
