The Stop and Start engine system can automatically shut off the engine when the vehicle comes to a stop, such as at a stop sign or traffic light when the brake pedal is depressed. Toyota provides additional features such as automatic engine shut-off or “Auto Shut Off” with an enhanced audible and visual warning to its Smart Key System* (SKS). The Auto Shut Off feature will automatically shut off the engine after a pre-determined period of time in the event the vehicle is left running. Future enhancements will include smartphone App capabilities as an added reminder. Currently, Toyota vehicles issue a two-step alert to notify the driver that the engine is running and request the engine to be turned off. Toyota has included this feature since its 2003 SKS introduction. Toyota’s current Smart Key System meets or exceeds all relevant federal safety standards while providing added convenience, improved theft prevention, and personal security benefits.

Checked Your Tires Lately? The condition of your tires can mean the difference between a close call and a collision Improper inflation and unnoticed tire damage can lead to blowouts. Even undamaged tires with half their tread may lose traction on wet surfaces and hydroplane. THE PENNY TEST Tread depth is measured in 32nds of an inch. Tread depth on new tires typically measures 10/32 inches or 11/32 inches (about a third of an inch), while trucks, SUVs, or winter tires may have deeper treads. When tires reach 2/32 inches, the U.S. Department of Transportation recommends replacing them. more To check whether you've hit the 2/32-inch mark, use the penny test as follows: • Place a penny in a tire tread groove with Lincoln's head face first in the groove. • Check if Lincoln's face on the penny disappears between the grooves. • If it does, your tread is still above 2/32 inches. If you can see all of Lincoln's face, it's time to replace your tire. • Make sure to repeat with all tires and in various places on each tire. There are a few other ways for drivers to check tire tread depth, including using a tread depth gauge and tread wear indicator bars. Learn more about how to give your Toyota tire treads a longer life is by maintaining recommended tire pressure, or connect with the Service Department at Passport Toyota for any and all tire service!
