WARRANTY INFORMATION
YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES
All of the warranties in this booklet are limited warranties and they give you specific legal rights. You
may also have other rights which vary from province to province. Some provinces do not allow the
exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitation of how long an implied
warranty lasts or who is eligible for coverage, so the stated limitations or exclusions may not apply
to you.
The limited warranties in this booklet are the only express warranties made by Chrysler Canada Inc.
applicable to this vehicle. Any implied warranty or condition of merchantability or fitness for a
particular purpose applicable to this vehicle is limited in duration to the duration of these limited
warranties.
Chrysler Canada Inc. shall not be liable for commercial loss, special or consequential damages
resulting from breach of these written warranties or of any implied warranty or condition.
OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE
It is your responsibility under the terms of these warranties to operate and maintain your vehicle as
recommended in the Owner’s Manual. Regular scheduled maintenance, described in your Owner’s
Manual and herein, is essential to trouble-free operation.
Westrongly recommendthat you return to your selling retailer for all service, both during and after
the warranty periods. Chrysler Canada Retailers are best equipped and trained to provide all levels of
service and maintenance for your vehicle.
High-tech diagnostic equipment is sometimes needed to service a vehicle efficiently and accurately.
Chrysler Canada Retailers have unique diagnostic computers and electronic and mechanical tools,
specially designed to service our cars and trucks, and we provide special technical training so their
technicians can render the skilled care your vehicle needs.
WARRANTY SERVICE
Warranty service must be done by an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer. We recommend that you
return to your selling retailer for this service; however, you may request warranty service for your
vehicle from any Chrysler Retailer. See“How to get service”on page 8.

The Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Act requires vehicle manufacturers to notify owners if the
correction of a safety-related defect becomes necessary. If you change your name or address, or if you
are a subsequent owner of this vehicle, please call the Chrysler Canada Customer Records Department
at 1-800-373-1474. You can also request to have these changes completed by any authorized Chrysler
Canada retailer.
ABOUT YOUR WARRANTIES

Time and distance limitations for all warranty coverage are measured from the vehicle’swarranty
start date,which is the date when the vehicle was originally delivered or first used, whichever
occurred first.

registered and normally operated in Canada. The warranties apply to all owners of the vehicle.
COVERED REPAIRS
The warranties in this booklet cover repairs to factory-installed Chrysler parts and equipment (that is,
Chrysler parts or equipment installed by Chrysler or by the selling retailer before the vehicle was
delivered to the first owner), if the repairs were necessary because of a defect in material or
workmanship. Covered repairs will be done without charge, using new or remanufactured Chrysler
parts (see page 9).

HOW TO GET SERVICE
IN CANADA:
Warranty service must be done by an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer. If you move or are
travelling in Canada, warranty service may be requested from any authorized Chrysler Retailer, but
preferably one who sells the same Chrysler or Dodge brand vehicle as yours.
IN THE UNITED STATES(INCLUDING U.S.POSSESSIONS AND TERRITORIES)AND MEXICO:
If you are travelling temporarily in the United States or Mexico, and your vehicle remains registered
in Canada, your Chrysler Canada Warranty will still apply. Service may be requested at any
authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer.
IN A FOREIGN COUNTRY OUTSIDE OF NORTH AMERICA:
If you are travelling temporarily outside of North America, and your vehicle remains registered in
Canada, you should take your vehicle to an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer. If the authorized
retailer charges you for repairs which you feel should be covered under your warranty, please get a
detailed receipt for the work done. When your vehicle returns to Canada, contact the Chrysler Canada
Customer Assistance Centre (page 9) for reimbursement consideration. Reimbursement will not be
considered if the vehicle does not return to Canada.
IF YOU MOVE:
If you are moving to another country, be sure to contact the customs department of the destination
country before you move. Vehicle importation rules vary considerably from country to country.
If you are moving to the United States,be sure to also contact the Chrysler Motors Customer
Assistance office at1-800-992-1997to obtain the necessary documentation to register your vehicle
and to determine warranty eligibility in the U.S.
NOTICE:
If your vehicle is registered outside of Canada, and you have not followed the procedure set out
above, your vehicle will no longer be eligible for warranty coverage of any kind. (Vehicles registered
to Canadian Government officials or military personnel on assignment outside of Canada will
continue to be covered by the Basic Warranty.)
OTHER THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
OPTIONAL SERVICE CONTRACT
Chrysler Canada has a service contract specially designed for most new vehicles, to cover repair costs
beyond your vehicle’s warranty. Protection is available for almost every operating part of your
vehicle, and at reasonable cost.
Chrysler Canada stands fully behind its service contracts. Be sure that the contract you buy is a
genuineChryslerService Contract. We arenotresponsible for other companies’ contracts. See
page 12 for details on available service contracts.
APPEARANCE ITEMS
Defects or damage to sheet metal, paint, trim and other appearance items are normally found and
corrected during new vehicle inspection. For your protection, if you find any such defect or damage,
you should tell your selling retailer immediately, because if the problem worsens due to use and
exposure, repairs will not be covered by any warranty.
PRODUCTION CHANGES
Chrysler Canada and its retailers reserve the right to make changes in vehicles built and/or sold at any
time without incurring any obligations to make the same or similar changes on vehicles which were
built and/or sold previously.

EXCHANGE PARTS
To reduce the amount of time your vehicle is out of service due to repairs, Chrysler may offer
exchange service on some parts. Mopar
or Autopar™ brand exchange parts may be new,
remanufactured, reconditioned or repaired, but all meet Chrysler standards and are warranted the
same as new parts. Examples of parts that may be serviced by exchange include engines,
transmissions, instrument clusters, radios, tape and CD players, speedometers and various electronic
modules.
RECLAIMED REFRIGERANT
To help control suspected ozone-depleting agents, regulations require the capture, purification and
reuse of automotive refrigerant gases. As a result, any repairs to the sealed portion of your air
conditioning system, if so equipped, may involve the installation of purified reclaimed refrigerant.
DIGITAL VIDEO AND COMPACT DISCS(DVD/CD)
There are some things you should know about non-commercial DVDs and CDs. Labels applied to
home-recorded discs may curl, buckle or peel off. This can result in ejection failure, and repairs
required to remove a “stuck” disc are not covered by warranty. In addition, some home-recorded discs
may not be compatible with automotive players and may skip or produce error messages. If you
encounter this, check your player by using a commercial disc which is known to be playable. If a disc
is not compatible with the player, replacing or servicing the player will not solve the problem.
CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE
We want you to be completely satisfied with your Chrysler vehicle. If you have a warranty or service
problem that has not been resolved to your complete satisfaction, please follow these steps:
1. Discuss the matter with the Service Manager of your Chrysler Retailer; then with the General
Manager or owner, if necessary.
2. Give your retailer a reasonable length of time or number of opportunities to satisfy you. In fact,
your retailer may contact Chrysler on your behalf.
3. If the problem still has not been resolved, please contact us at the address or toll-free number shown
and give us an opportunity to review your situation. When you contact us, please provide the
following information:

INTRODUCTIONThe oil change indicator system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled
maintenance. Based on engine operation condition the oil change indicator message will illuminate, this
means that service is required for your vehicle. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the
next 800 km. The oil change indicator message will not monitor the time since the last oil change. Change
your vehicles oil if it has been 6 months since your last oil change even if the oil change indicator message
is NOT illuminated. Change your engine oil more often if you drive your vehicle off-road for an extended
period of time.Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 13,000 km or 6 months,
whichever comes first.Your dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the
scheduled oil change. If this scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than your dealer the
message can be reset by referring to the steps described in the Owner’s Manual.
The performance of all scheduled service work is required to maintain your vehicle in good operating
condition. Chrysler Canada Inc. reserves the right to deny warranty coverage if the vehicle has not
been properly maintained. While we do not insist that such work be performed by factory authorized
retailers, we strongly recommend that an authorized Chrysler, Jeepor Dodge Retailer perform this
work.
AT EACH STOP FOR FUEL
•Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Checking the
oil level while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level reading. Add
oil only when the level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
•Check the windshield washer solvent and add if required.
ONCE A MONTH
•Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage.
•Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the terminals as required.
•Check the fluid levels of coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, power steering and transmission
and add as needed.
•Check all lights and other electrical items for correct operation.
•Check and clean wiper blades. Replace if required.
AT EACH OIL CHANGE
•Change the engine oil filter.
•Inspect the brake hoses and lines.
VISUAL INSPECTIONS —
INSPECT FOR SIGNS OF COMPONENT DETERIORATION AND PHYSICAL DAMAGE.
MAINTENANCEScheduled maintenance must be completed to provide the best vehicle
performance and reliability. The limited warranties in the warranty booklet DO NOT COVER
repairs required due to improper maintenance. We strongly suggest you keep track of scheduled
maintenance and keep receipts or other documents. Use only recommended MoparLubricants
and genuine MoparParts. In the event that a condition arises between maintenance intervals,
please contact your retailer. AVOID PROLONGED PERIODS OF IDLING.
