Toughy; my thoughts exactly. BMW's full maintenance program leads the industry (Luxury segment anyway) hands down.

Toyota U.S. recall extravaganza

Tundras, Scions, and now... Toyota Motor is recalling 367,600 U.S. Highlander and Lexus RX SUVs to fix clips that may allow a console access panel to fall onto the gas pedal.

The recall applies to 2004-2005 Highlanders and RX 330s and 2006 Highlander Hybrid and RX 400h models. Stronger clips will be installed to replace the original units.

Toyota says it has had seven reported complaints about the errant panel, and in two cases it interfered with the gas pedal, causing accidents. No injuries have resulted.

Vehicle warranties are more or less like other warranties. They can only be effected, if the terms have not been violated. Before you get excited about these extensions on warranties, get to know your auto dealer terms. I find it is Important when you to know the status of your warranty so that you can negotiate when selling it as used car.
