When it comes to driving, anything can happen. The weather can shift on a dime. The road conditions can change. Even the most well-equipped drivers will end up facing their share of unexpected events while behind the wheel. Bring your vehicle by Lake Charles Toyota!

This is one of the major reasons that scheduling your car for routine service is so important. It can mean the difference between sitting on the side of the road waiting for help to arrive and arriving at your destination. 

If you purchased your vehicle from Lake Charles Toyota and want to schedule routine service, keep reading for everything you should know about doing so. 

Why is Preventative Maintenance Important?

What are you going to do if there’s a torrential downpour and your windshield wipers stop working? What happens if one of your tires blows out while you’re traveling across state lines to visit family for the holidays? 

These are scenarios every driver has to consider, which is why getting preventative maintenance on your vehicle is critical. If you know that the forecast is calling for a big storm, come in and make sure your headlamps and windshield wipers are working. If you’re about to take a family road trip, come in for a vehicle checkup to make sure everything is working as it should. 

The last thing you want is to run into a serious issue while you’re traveling.

Why You Should Get Your Vehicle Service Done at Lake Charles Toyota

Aside from the fact that we offer discounts and flexible appointments, the main reason you should get your vehicle service done at Lake Charles Toyota is that we know Toyotas inside out. 

Because all we sell are Toyotas, it’s also all we work on. While other mechanics may not be familiar with the ins and outs of your make and model, you can rest assured that we are. Furthermore, because we work on these vehicles as often as we do, we have the parts you may need already in stock. 

Is this true for other dealerships? Not so much. If they don’t routinely work on your make and model, they most likely won’t have any of the parts in stock. This means that on top of already paying for your vehicle repair, you may also be paying additional money for a rental so you can continue getting to and from work. 

You won’t run into any of those common issues when you get your vehicle maintenance done at Lake Charles Toyota. In fact, while you’re here, you’ll be able to browse our gift shop and enjoy a fresh cup of coffee and free Wi-Fi in the comfort of our lounge. If you’re bringing your kids with you before dropping them off at school, we even have a children’s play area to let them have fun. 

Available Discounts and Free Diagnostics for Students

Not only do we offer time slots for you to come in based on your availability, but we’re also very proud to offer several discounts on our auto services. While these coupons will rotate every now and then, expect to find discounts for students with a valid student ID and lower prices on various auto parts such as batteries. 

If you’re a student at Lamar State College, the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, Northwestern State University, SOWELA Technical Community College, or Louisiana State University (to name a few), just bring in your student ID and we’ll do a complimentary car diagnostic test so you know what kind of services you need to get done.

Keep reading to learn more about the available pre-owned models we have available here at Lake Charles Toyota, as well as what to expect from us during your car-buying experience. 

What Pre-Owned Cars Do We Have Available?

• Toyota Camry
• The Toyota Highlander
• Toyota Avalon
• The Toyota 4Runner
• Toyota Sienna
• The Toyota 86 Hakone Edition
• Toyota Tundra

Please keep in mind that the years of these vehicles vary, as will the pre-owned vehicles we have available on our lot.

Do We Sell Certified Pre-Owned? 

Yes, we do sell certified pre-owned vehicles. If you’re new to this phrase, no worries. When a pre-owned vehicle is certified, it means that it has been meticulously reviewed and tested in multiple categories to ensure that it is of the highest quality. 

During this analysis, every pre-owned vehicle will undergo rigorous testing on various things such as the frame, structure and underbody, vehicle history, transmission, brakes, and battery system. While this is not a complete list, these are just some of the ways in which the team at Lake Charles Toyota strives for excellence in every vehicle we sell. 

Furthermore, our certified pre-owned vehicles are backed by warranties in the event of breakdowns and other types of mechanical failures. 

How Does Our Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Warranty Work?

Your warranty kicks in the moment you purchase your certified pre-owned vehicle from our dealership. There are two warranty options available to you: a 12-month/12,000 miles limited comprehensive warranty, and a 7-year/100,000-mile limited Powertrain warranty. 

Let’s start with the 12-month warranty first. This warranty covers repair and replacement for standard defects and/or work incorrectly done to the vehicle. It can also be transferred to another user if you should sell your vehicle or pass it on to someone else in your family. 

The 7-year/100,000-mile warranty covered transmission and engine parts, as well as all internally lubricated parts. It also comes with travel protection and lodging reimbursement for stays more than 150 miles from where you live. Also transferable to another user, this warranty provides reimbursement while your vehicle is being repaired. 

Can You Get a Detailed History of The Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle’s History?

Yes, you can. 

Many customers who are thinking about buying a used vehicle have reservations because they’re not sure about the vehicle’s history. 

We eliminate that concern by providing a CARFAX Vehicle History Report for all certified pre-owned vehicle purchases. This report, provided to you free of charge, contains valuable information regarding the vehicle’s service records, state emissions inspection results, flood damage history, and accident history. It can even give you information on how many people have owned the vehicle.
