If you are confused about what each of the Toyota Camry’s original factory warranties covers, I recommend checking out our article “The Ultimate Guide to Car Warranties.” This guide explains in detail the different types of warranties that come with new cars like the Basic, Powertrain, Corrosion Perforation, Air Conditioning, Paint, Battery, Tire, Federal Emissions, and California Emissions warranties. 

All of these are part of the original Factory Warranty provided by Toyota on new Camry models. Our article breaks down what each warranty is meant to cover so you can better understand the protections and limits of the Toyota Camry’s original factory warranty coverage. Checking out the guide can help clarify any questions you may have so you know exactly what was originally covered under the Camry’s warranties.

Basic Warranty

The Toyota Camry’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty, also known as the basic warranty, does not cover damage or failures resulting from factors like accidents, modifications, improper maintenance, or normal wear and tear. Some specific exclusions are things like wiper blades, brake pads, tires, and maintenance services like oil changes. 

This 3-year/36,000-mile basic warranty expired in 2020 for a 2017 Camry, since we are now in the year 2023 which is past 3 years from the original in-service date. 

So the basic warranty that covers repairs and adjustments to correct defects in materials or workmanship has been expired since 2020, at the latest, on this particular vehicle. Remember that with Toyota’s warranty coverage limits, the earlier of the time or mileage limit is what determines the expiration.

Powertrain Warranty

The Toyota Camry’s powertrain warranty covers repairs needed to correct defects in materials or workmanship on the engine, transmission/transaxle, front-wheel drive system, and rear-wheel drive system components. Specifically, this includes the engine block, head, timing gears, timing chain/belt, valve covers, oil pan, oil pump, engine mounts, seals and gaskets, as well as the transmission case, torque converter, clutches, mounts, seals and gaskets, and more. 

This 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty for the 2017 Camry expired in 2022, since we are now in the year 2023 which is past 5 years from the original in-service date. Remember that with Toyota’s warranty coverage limits, the earlier of the time or mileage limit is what determines the expiration.

Corrosion Perforation Warranty

The Toyota Camry’s rust perforation limited warranty covers repair or replacement of any original body panel that develops perforation from corrosion (rust-through). This 5-year unlimited miles rust perforation limited warranty for the 2017 Camry has expired.

This warranty expired in 2022, since we are now in the year 2023 which is past 5 years from the original in-service date. Remember that with Toyota’s warranty coverage limits, the earlier of the time or mileage limit is what determines the expiration. 

Air Conditioning Warranty

The air conditioning warranty covers repairs needed to correct defects in materials or workmanship of any part of the air conditioning system. Unfortunately, the air condition duration isn’t specified in the warranty document. Assuming this would fall under the basic warranty, the coverage is for 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever occurs first, from the vehicle’s in-service date. 

For a 2017 model year Toyota Camry purchased new, the 36-month/36,000-mile basic warranty would expire in 2020 or at 36,000 miles, whichever occurred first. Since it is now 2023, this warranty on a 2017 Camry would be expired.

Battery Warranty

The battery warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship of the original battery installed in the 2017 Toyota Camry. Like the air conditioning warranty, the owner’s manual does not specify a duration for the battery warranty. Without known limits, it is unclear if this warranty has expired based on the car now being a 2023 model year. 

The New Vehicle Limited Warranty usually would cover the battery for 36 months or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. This means the battery is warranted against defects in materials and workmanship. However, the warranty does not cover batteries damaged from improper maintenance, misuse, modifications, alterations, accidents, or non-genuine Toyota Parts.

Tire Warranty

The Toyota warranty document states that tires are warranted by their manufacturer, not Toyota. It provides contact information for the tire manufacturers but does not give specifics on coverage or expiration for the tire warranty. The document advises customers to consult tire manufacturer warranty information, contact the manufacturer directly, or ask their Toyota dealer for details on the tire warranty. 

Federal Emissions Warranty

The Federal Emission Control Warranty covers repairs and adjustments needed to correct defects in materials or workmanship of emission control components, such as the engine control module, catalytic converter, and sensors. The Federal Emission Control Warranty does not cover damage or failures resulting from factors like improper maintenance, alterations, accidents, etc. as described in the “What Is Not Covered” section. Coverage is for 2 years or 24,000 miles from the vehicle’s in-service date, whichever occurs first. There is also coverage for 8 years or 80,000 miles for specific components.

For a 2017 Toyota Camry, the 24-month/24,000-mile Federal Emission Control Warranty coverage expired in 2019. However, the 8-year/80,000-mile specific components warranty is still valid if it’s still under the mileage limit.

The Clean Air Act

The Clean Air Act requires vehicle manufacturers to warranty emissions control components for 2 years or 24,000 miles. For the 2017 Toyota Camry discussed in the warranty document, the 24-month/24,000-mile Federal Emission Control Warranty coverage would expire in 2019 or at 24,000 miles, whichever occurred first. Since it is now 2023, the original Federal Emission Control Warranty required by the Clean Air Act on this 2017 Camry would be expired. 

However, under the Clean Air Act, Toyota may establish special policy adjustments to pay for specific emissions-related repairs outside of the original warranty period. This could potentially help pay for the replacement of certain emissions control components on this 2017 Camry, even though the original warranty has expired. Owners would need to contact Toyota directly to see if any special policy adjustments apply to their repair needs.

California Emissions Warranty

The California Emission Control Warranty covers repairs and adjustments needed to correct defects in materials or workmanship of emissions-related parts, such as the engine control module, catalytic converter, and sensors. Coverage includes two warranties – a Short-Term Defect Warranty for 3 years/50,000 miles and a Long-Term Defect Warranty for 7 years/70,000 miles from the vehicle’s in-service date, whichever occurs first. 

For a 2017 Toyota Camry, the 3-year/50,000-mile California Short-Term Emission Control Defect Warranty coverage would expire in 2020 or at 50,000 miles, whichever occurred first. The 7-year/70,000-mile California Long-Term Emission Control Defect Warranty coverage would expire in 2024 or at 70,000 miles, whichever occurred first. Since it is now 2023, the original California Short-Term Emissions Warranty for this 2017 Camry would be expired but the Long-Term may still be active depending on the mileage. 

The California Emission Control Warranty does not cover damage or failures resulting from factors like improper maintenance, alterations, accidents, etc. as described in the “What Is Not Covered” section.

Extended Warranties

Extended Warranty Available Upon Car Purchase

To find out if an extended warranty was purchased, the best way would be to check the original purchase documentation or contact the original selling Toyota dealership.
