Toyota servicing and warranty

My daughters has a 21 plate Aygo, not serviced yet.
Low mileage, but how will a late service affect warranty?
But as they offer a 10,000 mile warranty after each service, I guess it won't matter too much.
Do owners of other makes of car find their 10,000 mile warranty after a service appealing?

    The Toyota Relax warranty only applies after the initial warranty expires, a 21 plate will have a 3 or 5 year warranty depending on the exact registration date.

    https://mag.toyota.co.uk/toyota-warranty-how-it-works/#:~:text=From 1 June 2021, all,to an additional seven years.

    You will have voided the initial warranty by not having it serviced on time.

    ..yes, Toyota offer a 10 year, 100k warranty assuming you have your car serviced by them every year or 10k miles. I would guess you would need to ask Toyota re what is the "max" time period you could delay this by, but would assume it would be no more than a month?...but that's just me guessing.

    The Car should have come with a 3 year Warranty. The 10,000 mile annual warranty was for vehicles serviced at a Toyota garage after the 3 year warranty expired. 

    They brought it in about a week after I sold my 18 plate Yaris in Aug 2021.   When I purchased mine new it was 5 year warranty.

    I moved to a KIA that came with a 7 year warranty. For me it was the same dealership/building.

    What are the service intervals? If it's x amount of miles or 1 year then there will be no warranty as it's not been serviced.

    Intermediate service is every 10,000 miles OR 1 year.

    Full service is every 20,000 miles OR 2 years.

    So no warranty now.

    That is the problem, she doesn't speak to anyone, not read the paperwork or emails.
    The web site does mention 20,000 service intervals on some models, but they would surely want to check the car over at 1,000 miles or 12 months

    @sevenhills, I have a 21 plate Aygo, mine was registered in March 2021 so it has a 5 year warranty and I have previously quoted the service intervals straight from the book on my coffee table, mine is due soon !

    I have had many Toyota vehicles and the consensus from my local service manager is that Toyota GB will allow up to 13 months as a service interval.

    As your daughter's car is well beyond that but still younger than the 3/5 year original warranty from new you'll have to ask your service manager how Toyota GB will interpret this situation.
