Had my car little over two months and 2000 miles and my $145 super rugs are already wearing thin under the clutch......anyone else? Really under warranty?

 

Yes, I had mine replaced too.

 

yes they are covered. it has been talked about in the maintence and car care forum

 

It's between the bumpers, right? - 3/36 Bumper to Bumper

 

I did not know that. I have to check that out.

 

Any links to the thread in the maintenance section? TIA

there ya go. I started the thread and got my floomats replaced with no problem. they were shocked at toyota when i showed them the wear. its covered under the 3yr/36,000mi warranty.

 

its funny, everytime I mention how the floormats are covered, someone tells me that it is considered normal wear and tear(you know from our shoes) therefore it would not be covered. Regardless, I'm looking forward to replacing my floormats at least 4-5 times in the next 2.6 years/29K mi...whichever comes first

 

wow, mine is already weraing thin as well...looks like ill be making that swap too...

 

This is awesome. Wish I had known that for my truck floormats. They wore thin too. I just got my car so it may be a while. Knowing this, I will not baby them as I was trying to do.
Probably replace them every once in a while too. IMO they should only replace the cloth portion since it is what will wear, not the rubber underneath. Now, how do we wear out the mat in the hatch? I might want a new one before the warranty is up. But that is a few years down the road.

 

i will be replacing mine very shortly..i will also be buying a racing kick plate to prevent future wear....

Does anyone know if they only cover them if you got them with the car? I didn't get the carpeted Scion mats yet, because I knew I'd be wanting rubber, all-weather mats for winter. I was planning on buying the carpeted Scion mats in the spring. If I get them through the dealer, do you think they will warranty them against early wear?

 

You do know that the floormats have a carpet piece which comes off to reveal a rubber mat underneath.

 

I did read something about that. That's pretty cool, but Wal-Mart sells these really heavy-duty rubber mats with big, deep groves that trap and hold water and mud. They're cheap, and the black ones look great in my xA. I figured I'd save the expensive Scion mats for summer use.

 

Not for the Xa and Xb. That's only true for the Tc

 

I do have the official floor mats.. but i bought them off ebay.. can i get them replaced????

 

bump - anybody know if you have to have purchased the mats with the car for them to be under warranty?

 

i would assume so. you could easily try i'm pretty sure they wouldnt go receipt searching. but you better majke damn sure they really are oem and not knockoffs. i wonder what the stealerships consider normal wear and tear versus a crappy quicker than should be wearing piece?

 

I also use those wal-mart mats, I have them over the stock mats they work great.
I get in and out of the car with a wet suit on and wet shoe's and they hold all the water that comes out of my shoe's. (Freestyle Jet Ski)
