    1996-1998 federal emmissions warranty enhancement notice

    I got this Warranty Enhancement Notice in the mail today from Toyota. I
    have a 1997 Camry LE 4 with 90,000 miles. What is this all about and can
    anyone shed more light on it? This is part of the letter I received.

    This enhanced coverage of the Evaporative Control System is extended to the
    components specified below for a period of 14 years or 150,000 miles from
    the vehicle's in-service date, whichever occurs first. Please note that,
    depending on the design of the evaporative control system in each model, one
    or more of the specified components may not apply to your vehicle.

    Evaporative storage canister
    Evaporative system pressure sensor
    Fuel cap
    Fuel tank
    Fuel tank filler neck
    Purge valve
    Tank vapor vent line
    Three-way valve
    Any other part or component, excluding any maintenance parts, between the
    fuel tank and the intake manifold (but not including the intake manifold)
    designed to contain or conduct fuel vapor from the fuel system.

    Thank you. You are very clever.

    Perhaps a more direct question is in order. Why has this extended
    warranty been forced upon Toyota and what is the cause of these parts
    being having to be looked at. What do they directly affect and should I
    have this stuff looked at more closely. We don't have emissions testing
    in SE VA.

    For what it is worth, my sister's 1996 Honda Civic also has this
    extraordinary emissions warranty.

    Since we do not have emissions testing, how would I know if these items are
    bad now? What do the evaporative system, purge valve, and three-way valve
    do in this vehicle?

    The car has its own self diagnostics which ... considering you have
    no state emissions testing ... should be performed at the dealer.

    Most likely if one of them would be bad, chances are your check engine light
    would go on.
