Wrong. I had extended warranty, had it serviced at my local garage and still had no dramas claiming, including a gear box

I will use my regular mechanic for 5oook filter/oil changes and he can check toyota aren't full of it

It's nothing more than a money making gamble with a Zillion outs. They want lock in exorbitant dealer servicing and of course the initial cost of extended warranty.
Dealerships service departments are a joke. Usually one mechanic to a dozen cheap apprentices. Apprentice put there for cheap labour , not for the true spirit of apprenticeship which is to train into skilled workers.
It's a constant battle to get out of fixing things and watching the bottom line. Rort culture.

Things may have changed then. Can you find a link to the document or upload a picture of it? If true this would create a great disadvantage to people who live regionally away from dealerships, assuming dealerships are 'their service teams'. My warranty was a Toyota Extra Care Extended Warranty adminsitered by a branch of Toyota and not the dealer. Who is yours thru, the dealer or TEC?
