    yes, there's no relationship between maintenance and warranty. warranties cover factory defects, not early wear and tear

    It was a coupon book they gave us at the time we bought our car new in 2020, it had coupons to cover all the cost of the routine maintenance for so long, we were able to pay a little extra and get a book that covered routine maintenance cost a nice bit longer.

    Don't remember if that was just an incentive they had back then when buying a new car or still do now.

    Okay, just did a search and found this as far as Toyota Care as it is now - Maintenance Plans | Toyota Owners - Maintenance Plans | Toyota Owners

    As far as finding individual coupons I found this - Toyota Service Coupons | Parts & Service Deals

    It's been a while since we had to pay out of pocket for the normal routine maintenance, not sure offhand how much longer our extended coupon book covers, will have to look at it, for when our coupon book runs out I looked at that Toyota Care link I clicked on something and read:

    Toyota Service Care * plans last for two years and unlimited miles. Coverage starts immediately once purchased and can be renewed again and again to continue your benefits. Can be purchased if vehicle is no longer eligible for ToyotaCare or any other prepaid maintenance plan.

    When our coupon book runs out I'll have to check with the dealer to see the cost of the above to know if it is a good deal to be able to have longer service coverage.
