  8. The Business Case

  9. Agenda • Module One: The Business Case • Module Two: The Top Three Issues and Solutions • Module Three: Tools and Resources

  10. Customer Comments

  11. Cruise Control

  12. Cruise Control “Word Tracks” • Understand • Do they use cruise control? • Where was it located on their previous vehicle? • Was it steering-wheel mounted? • Show and Let the Customer Try • On and off • Set cruise speed • Increase and decrease speed • Resume • Cancel

  13. Cruise Control “Word Tracks” • Say • In this vehicle the cruise control is located right here. • See how it has its own dedicated stalk? • It’s very intuitive and you’ll find it very easy to use. • Confirm they understand how to use the feature and ask if they have questions.

  14. Cruise Control Demonstration

  15. Wiper & Washer Controls • Research shows of those reporting that Front/Rear Wipers are difficult to understand or use in Toyota vehicles, 53% say the controls are complex or confusing Source: 2007 J.D. Power and Associates Initial Quality StudySM

  16. Wiper & Washer Controls

  17. Wiper & Washer Controls “Word Tracks” • Understand • What kind of vehicle were they driving before? • Where were the wiper controls located on that vehicle? • Does their new vehicle have front only or front and rear wipers? • Show and Let the Customer Try • Low and high speed settings • Intermittent wiper setting • Front washers • Rear wiper wipe and wash

  18. Wiper & Washer Controls “Word Tracks” • Say • The wiper and washer controls are located on the right side of the steering wheel. • One of the things you’re going to notice about your Toyota is that the controls might operate a bit differently than what you’re used to. (Domestic or European Vehicle Owners) • Moving the stalk downward to activate is very comfortable; the wipers are very ergonomic and easy to get used to. • Confirm they understand how to use the feature and ask if they have questions.

  19. Wiper & Washer Controls Demonstration

  20. HVAC • Research shows of those reporting issues with HVAC, the majority say the controls are difficult to understand or use • This is especially true when the vehicle is equipped with dual automatic climate controls (like the Camry and RAV4) Source: 2006 & 2007 J.D. Power and Associates Initial Quality StudySM

  21. RAV4 1 1 2 3 1 • Continuous illumination of the A/C button in “Auto” mode. Customers may be confused because the light remains on regardless of temperature setting (i.e., even when set at 80°). 2 • Dual Zone. Many customers have never had the ability to set a different temperature for the driver and passenger. 3 • Micro dust/pollen filter. This feature is not widely offered and customers may not be familiar with the international symbol used to activate that feature. Toyota RAV4 LTD

  22. Camry 3 4 1 2 1 • Continuous illumination of the A/C button in “Auto” mode. Customers may be confused because the light remains on regardless of temperature setting (i.e., even when set at 80°). 2 • “Recirc” automatically illuminates. Customers may be confused by the automatic illumination of the “recirc” light when the system is adjusted to the lowest temperature. 3 • Dual Zone. Many customers have never had the ability to set a different temperature for the driver and passenger. 4 • Fan Speed. The operation for increasing/decreasing fan speed may be different than what the customer is used to. Toyota Camry XLE and Hybrid

  23. Tundra 2 1 1 • Fan speed control knob. Customers may have difficulty locating the fan speed control knob because it is set apart from the other HVAC controls. 2 • Dual Zone/Sync. Many customers have never had the ability to set a different temperature for the driver and passenger. In addition, they may not understand the term “Sync.” Toyota Tundra SR5

  24. HVAC

  25. HVAC “Word Tracks” • Understand • Did their previous vehicle have manual or automatic climate control? • Have they ever owned a vehicle with dual zone temperature controls? • Show and Let the Customer Try • Automatic feature • Set Temp (fan/mode automatically adjusted) • Modes: defrost, floor, dash-level • Dual feature – sync/separate • “Recirc” • Micro Dust/Pollen Filter

  26. HVAC “Word Tracks” • Say • You’re going to enjoy the auto climate control on your vehicle; you just set the temperature you want and it automatically adjusts to achieve that temperature. • The AC light comes on whether you’re heating or cooling your car. This is normal; it helps remove moisture from the air and helps prevent your windows from fogging. • When you adjust the temperature to the coldest setting you will see the “recirculation” button illuminate. That’s how it is supposed to work, because the system is being efficient and closing off the hot air from outside. In addition, it helps remove moisture from the inside air.

  27. HVAC “Word Tracks” • Say, cont. • Another thing you may not be familiar with is the “Micro Dust/Pollen Filter” feature. This closes off the outside air and helps clean and filter the air within the car. • When the “Dual Zone” light is on, your passenger can set a different temperature. To synchronize the temperature for the entire cabin, simply press the dual button to turn it off. • Confirm they understand how to use the feature and ask if they have questions.

  28. HVAC Demonstration

  29. Activity - Practice • Break into teams of two • Practice presenting one of the top issues discussed: • Cruise Control • Wiper & Washer Controls • HVAC • Use your job aid and incorporate at least one new “word track” presented today • Debrief

  34. Quick Reference Guide

  35. Call to Action • Why is this initiative important? • Key competitors are improving and closing the quality gap with Toyota. • Research shows that this can be attributed, in part to an inadequate explanation of features/controls. • 38% of Toyota buyers previously owned or currently own a domestic vehicle. • Conquest customers are unfamiliar with Toyotas and reporting more problems than loyal customers. • Unfamiliarity leads to perceived quality issues. • What’s In It For Me? • Decrease perceived quality issues. • Satisfied customers. • More sales leads and repeat/referral customers.

  36. Call to Action • How can I help? • Review the three top issues during vehicle delivery: Cruise Control, Wiper & Washer Controls and HVAC. • Conduct a thorough vehicle delivery: • Make sure customers are familiar with their vehicles and how key features function. • Demonstrate key features and let the customer “try it” during vehicle delivery. • Confirm that they understand. • When? • Start now! • Continue throughout the year.
