Every new Toyota is covered by a three-year or 36,000-mile warranty that protects it against any unforeseen issues with the materials or labor used in its construction. This comprehensive warranty will eventually expire, but you can extend your warranty benefits by choosing a Vehicle Service Agreement (VSA).  As your Toyota dealership, we want to tell you more about some of the benefits of choosing one of these extension options. more From Your Toyota Dealership: 3 Extended Warranty Benefits Three Different Plans You have three plan options to choose from depending on your needs and requirements. The basic agreement, the Powertrain Protection VSA, focuses on the components that comprise the powertrain, the systems that enable your vehicle to move. This agreement covers components in the engine, transmission, and axle assembly. In addition, if you have a hybrid, its drive components are also protected. The next level up is the Gold Protection VSA. This agreement covers everything in the above VSA together with components in the steering, climate control, front and rear suspensions, fuel and electrical systems, and additional specialized hybrid systems, if applicable. Finally, the Platinum Protection VSA covers every system and component in your Toyota except those specifically excluded in the VSA contract. Additional Benefits All three VSAs include a range of benefits that apply for the agreement duration. Roadside assistance is available 24/7/365 to help with any issues you might face on the road. If something goes wrong, expert technicians will be dispatched to you. They can change a flat, jump-start your Toyota, provide lockout assistance, winch you from a ditch, tow you to a dealer, or deliver emergency fuel. If your vehicle can't be driven due to a mechanical issue covered by the VSA, help is available. If you're 150 miles or more from home, you'll receive up to $50 daily for food, lodging, and transport. In addition, you can receive up to $35 per day to pay for car rental. Flexible Options Each plan has the flexibility to customize it to your needs. You can choose an agreement length from three years or 50,000 miles up to ten years or 125,000 miles. The VSA you choose automatically activates when your original warranty expires, providing seamless coverage. You can also choose the deductible you want from either $0, $100, or a $100 disappearing deductible. The disappearing deductible is waived if you take your vehicle to the dealer where you got your VSA for the repair. If you sell your vehicle, the remaining portion of your VSA is transferrable to the new owner. If you'd like to know more about any of these plans or sign up for the plan you've chosen, contact us today at Steet Toyota of Yorkville in Yorkville, NY.

It’s our 7th Annual Coats for Kids Coat drive and we need YOUR help to beat our numbers from last year! In 2023, we donated 975 articles of winter outerwear including kid’s winter coats, snow pants, hats, gloves, scarves and snow boots! This Coat Drive started 7 years ago, when Joe Steet Sr. and his wife were driving through Utica, NY one morning and saw a few elementary aged kids waiting for the bus without winter coats. We immediately got to work sourcing kid’s winter coats for what we decided to call "Coats for Kids." This was back in mid-November and we gave it 2 weeks. We donated about 200 or so coats that year to Utica and Rome Elementary Schools. Since then, we've worked some bugs out. We start the Coat Drive on October 1st, to go until November 1st, so we can get the coats to students before the super cold weather hits. Our Chevy store in Herkimer and Toyota store in Johnstown also jumped on board to donate to their local schools. We also opened it up to all forms of winter outerwear, knowing that coats can be expensive, but donating a hat or pair of gloves is a bit more reasonable! Last year, we donated 975 articles of winter clothing to kids in Utica, Rome, Herkimer, CVA, and Fulton County schools. 375 of those were coats, along with hundreds of hats, mittens, scarves, and even a good amount of snow pants and snow boots! If you can, please join us this year and donate a kid's winter coat or any form of winter outwear in any kid's sizes starting at 5T! Donations can be dropped off to any of our showrooms during normal business hours, or you can even ship them to our stores. Our Yorkville stores are donating to Utica and Rome Elementary Schools, our Chevy store is donating to Herkimer & CVA, and Steet Toyota of Johnstown is donating to Broadalbin-Perth & Amsterdam elementary schools. Thank you for your continued support and helping to keep our kids warm during the cold Central New York winter months!
