Do i have to be under warranty for TSB's?

I am hearing about new TSB's. Do i have to still be under warranty with toyota or the dealer to get them?

 

for tsb's usually u have to be under warranty to get them done without paying. if its a recall then it doesnt matter.

 

If your close, they might do it out of good faith...but don't hold your breath

A TSB is not a recall. TSBs were never intended to be released to the public, and not intended for us to look for problems.
A TSB is simply a formal communication from engineering to the dealerships indicating "If a customer complains about 'x', then here is the most likely solution"

So if the vehicle is under warranty, the TSB is covered under the normal warranty.

 

True true... or if it's an issue that you've been complaining about for a while.

A good reason to document any and all issues while still under warranty.

 

Thanks guys. My dealers pretty nice, Ive had the truck for almost a year now and have only put 7,000 on it. I had a clutch T.S.B fixed about a week after buying the truck. There was an abnormal ticking noise that they agreed was not normal. They took it as a no brainer and replaced the whole clutch for me. That was then though... Reason i ask is i have the windshield noise going on but it doesn't bug me enough to pay to have it fixed.

 

I bought the truck used and the warranty they had was 30,000 mile limited for like 2500 extra.. I figured i'd be fine. Luckily i brought it back within the standard dealership 1000 mile warranty for my clutch and had it replaced on the spot. I guess i won't be bugging them about the new t.s.b's i see. Lol!

My moms corolla has a recall atm for the power windows.. Apparently they have caused fires and can overheat and melt door panels.. I really need to schedule a day to take it in and get that taken care of for her lol!
