First service including a charging system update

[Kohler Controller]

I'm about to take mine in for the first 5k servicing. Maintenance A schedule looks pretty common, but what is "health check"? Do they actually get some information from the battery, like State of Health? For those out of state, does your dealer honor the free Toyota Care that CA dealers offer on this car or do they charge you to rotate the tires and check fluids?

AFAIK, "health check" is not EV specific and is a generic status report that's part of Toyota Techstream. Try Googling for toyota "health check" techstream.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cnxc_moAbXg was a video of performing accelerator recall work: adding in a metal shim. This was during the Toyota SUA PR nightmare and recalls. Skip to the ~4:45 mark for his reference to health check. This is on a Corolla.
