    My standard 36K miles warranty will be expiring in a few days on my 2006 Prius.
    I'm considering buying the 6yr/100K Platinum Protection from an out-of-state Toyota dealer.
    I'm curious if anyone has experienced difficulty with their local dealer honoring it.

    Thanks

    Never had to use mine but I'm sure any Toyota dealer will honor a Toyota warranty no matter where it was purchased.

    I find it intersesting that the following 3 components are excluded from the coverage:

    Hybrid System Main Relays
    Hybrid Vehicle Battery
    Hybrid Vehicle Battery Module/Pack

    I believe that those parts are included under the 8 year/100,000 mile coverage the Prius comes with. No need to double-cover them.

    And I think in some states - like California - you get more than 8 years/80,000 miles on those parts.
