Warranty Coverage - Toyota CAMRY-2002 Owner's Manual

Warranty Coverage

Warranties for collision repair parts are provided by the manufacturer or distribu-
tor of the parts. Warranty coverage varies. Your insurance company or collision
repair facility should provide you with written warranty statements for all parts
used in the repair of your vehicle.
Types of Collision Repair Parts
New original-equipment manufacturer (OEM): Parts that are made by the
vehicle manufacturer or one of its licensees and distributed through its normal
channels. These parts maintain the manufacturer's vehicle warranty.
Aftermarket or imitation: Parts that are made by companies other than the
vehicle manufacturer or its licensees.
Recycled or used salvage: Used parts and assemblies that have been removed
from another vehicle. There are no systems in place to regulate the quality or
safety of these parts.
Remanufactured: Parts that have been returned to like-new condition through
repair, refurbishing or rebuilding.
Due to the critical nature of Supplemental Restraint Systems (also known as
air bags), Toyota does not support the use of imitation or used parts for their
repair. Only new Genuine Toyota Parts should be used to repair or replace
Supplemental Restraint Systems.
