To clarify (since nobody reads the thread where it's already explained over and over)

The card is for 350 owners who:

Had the valve spring recall
AND
already own an extended warranty (because otherwise you get your powertrain warranty extended by 30k miles instead)

Exception: in Florida apparently they can't do the extension of warranty for some weird legal reason so any 350 spring recall owners in FL get the $500 card automatically)

Exception: One or two folks who has especially bad experiences with the recall (ie the dealer screwed up the repair or something) might have also gotten the card regardless of the warranty status

There'd been one or two folks who claimed they were getting one who didn't fit the above, but didn't provide much other detail so the claims are dubious.

Hate to revive an old thread, but..... I have the $500 Lexus card for the valve spring recall and it expires in a couple months. Haven't used it yet and need to soon. Anyone know of a Lexus/Toyota dealer that will accept the card, but also offers performance parts? I know that L-Tuned Parts takes it, but I am looking for mid pipes and they only offer axle back and cat back systems. I would like to use the card for the mid pipe purchase but haven't had any luck. I checked Carson Toyota tonight but they offer less than L-Tuned. Any help would be great. Worst case scenario, I will blow the card at Sewell (I have a long list of stuff to get from them anyway), but to get the mid pipes for "free" would be sweet!
