Toyota will also be fielding its service people during the annual vacation pilgrimage. From April 20 to 23, the Toyota Service Mobile Team will be strategically located in both North and South Luzon areas to provide emergency road side services and make sure you reach your destination safely.

Aside from this, genuine Toyota spare parts will be available at very special rates.
