1. The Maintenance Schedule is not available for my car.
2. The most recent technical service bulletin, CP-ZTV-A110-D, is to extend warranty coverage for the Instrument Panel Combination Meter on 2004 to 2009 Model Year Prius vehicles. It was issued on 9/30/2013.
3. When I click on the repair tab, it says I have been logged out of my session and doesn't show anything on the "tree" on the left.

5.R.I.7:
For a lesson using Chilton Library for 5th grade ELA in the area of Integration of Knowledge and Ideas, I would have students look up and compare and contrast two of the following: a newspaper article, a t.v. news story, or news magazine article on the topic of a recall for a popular vehicle.
For example, the Toyota Prius had a pedal recall in 2009. This can be looked up on Chilton, and then articles looked up about this recall can be compared.

2. Here is one from greencarreports.com

The take on the story could be compared and contrasted from the different sources. Is a consumer reports or newsweek article different from a letter to the editor?
I used Chilton at a public library in Waynesboro, Virginia, where I was put at the reference desk even though I was the children's librarian because they didn't have a desk for me yet. That was the only time I have used it. It seems to me to be more a source for adults or at least driver-age patrons and more for public library than school library use.
I agree, Elizabeth, that Chilton is for HS and up, yet you developed an excellent common core-based lesson for 5th graders! I think your internet connection may have hiccuped when you clicked the Repair tab, as there is a lot of information there for your car, should you need it. Thanks for your comments!
