ABOUT YOUR WARRANTIES
WARRANTY START DATE
Time and distance limitations for all warranty coverage are
measured from the vehicle’s “warranty start date,” which is the date
when the vehicle was originally delivered or first used, whichever
occurred first.
VEHICLES COVERED
The warranties in this booklet cover new 2006 Chrysler and Dodge
Minivan, Chrysler PT Cruiser, Sebring Sedan, Sebring Convertible,
and Pacifica vehicles only which are built for sale in Canada and are
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
DaimlerChrysler parts and equipment (that is, DaimlerChrysler parts
or equipment installed by DaimlerChrysler 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 remanu-
factured DaimlerChrysler parts (see page 16).
TOWING IS COVERED
If your vehicle has to be towed because a part covered by warranty
failed, towing to the nearest Chrysler or Dodge Retailer will be
covered by the Roadside Assistance Program (for details, see page 20).
Important: Some vehicles have special towing requirements.
See your Owner’s Manual for towing instructions.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
• FLAT TIRE?If you have a flat tire, the service facility will remove
it and install your spare tire. The spare tire must be inflated and in
sound operating condition. Tire repairs are not covered.
• OUT OF FUEL?If your vehicle runs out of fuel, a small amount
of gasoline will be delivered to your location, where regulations
permit. In all other cases, including alternate fuels, your vehicle will
be towed to the nearest re-fuelling centre. In these instances, the
cost of fuel purchased will be your responsibility.
Please read “About Roadside Assistance” (page 22) because there
are some limitations that may affect the service available to you.
TO REQUEST ASSISTANCE(SEE ALSO INSIDE FRONT COVER)
If your vehicle requires any of the services provided by the program,
call this toll-free number anytime, from any location in Canada or
the United States: 1 800 363-4869(this number does not ring
at DaimlerChrysler Canada). Please identify yourself as a
DaimlerChrysler vehicle owner and be ready to provide:
❏Your Vehicle Identification Number
❏Your licence plate number
❏Your odometer reading (kilometres)
❏The location of your vehicle and the phone number where
you can be reached
❏Type of service needed (tow, flat tire, battery boost, etc.)
Note:• In severe weather, some delays may be expected.
• You will have to personally authorize the service provided
by the tow company
•If your vehicle is towed to a retailer, you are responsible for
contacting the retailer to authorize the service
TOWING AFTER THE PROGRAM EXPIRES
Coverage under the Roadside Assistance Program expires at 5 years
or 100,000 kilometres(or at 3 years or 60,000 kilometres, if
applicable), whichever occurs first. If you call the toll-free number
for assistance after the Program expires, you will have to pay for the
service provided.
Some emissions coverage lasts longer than the Roadside
Assistance Program.* For warranted emission system repairs after
the program expires, towing (only) will be provided on a
reimbursement basis. Call the toll-free number and service will be
dispatched, but you will have to pay for the tow. For reimbursement
consideration, see your authorized retailer for further details.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
ABOUT ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
The DaimlerChrysler Canada Roadside Assistance Program is not
a warranty, but the coverage is concurrent with the Basic and
Powertrain Warranties.
Covered service must be provided in Canada or the
Continental United States and is limited to plated and insured
vehicles that use public roadways.
Service will not be provided free if you have driven into an
area that is inaccessible to the service vehicle or is not a regularly
travelled and maintained public road (such as beaches, recreational
areas, construction sites, open fields, private and seasonal roads).
Cross-country, logging, autocross and any other form of off-road
use is not covered.
The program does not cover winching or towing for
vehicles that become stuck while plowing snow.
The program does not cover repeat calls for the same problem (if
avoidance of the problem is within the control of the driver or
owner), or towing from one retailer to another, or service if the
driver appears to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.The program does not pay for parts, tires, repairs, labour or
vehicle storage. Parts, repairs, or labour covered under a vehicle
warranty will be provided by your DaimlerChrysler Canada Retailer.
The program does not pay for towing required because of an
accident.For example, if a vehicle is winched from a ditch or
snowbank and is then determined to need a tow because of damage
suffered when it left the road, the tow will not be covered.
The program does not cover any “incidental or consequential
damages” connected with the failure of your vehicle or providing
services to you. Such damages include lost time, inconvenience, loss
of use of your vehicle, rental cars, fuel, telephone, travel or lodging,
loss of personal or commercial property, loss of revenue, etc.
All service providers are independent contractors and are not
employees or agents of DaimlerChrysler Canada. Any loss or damage
to your vehicle or personal property resulting from providing roadside
service is the responsibility of the roadside service provider (the
towing company, for example).
Report any damage or loss to the manager of the service provider
and to your own insurance company within 24 hours and before any
repairs are performed.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
DaimlerChrysler Canada reserves the right to limit services or
reimbursement claims for any vehicle, if in our opinion there is
abuse of the services or requests for service become unreasonable or
too frequent.
The program may be amended or cancelled at any time
without refund.
IN REMOTE LOCATIONS
If your vehicle suffers a warrantable mechanical breakdown
at a considerable distance from a DaimlerChrysler Canada Retailer,
we reserve the right to engage a nearby non-DaimlerChrysler service
facility to repair your vehicle, to minimize inconvenience to you.
In very remote areas, if your vehicle cannot be taken by road
to the servicing retailer, transportation by rail or water may be
necessary. The program will cover a tow to the dock or rail terminal
and also to the retailer at the end of the trip, but special
transportation by rail or water must be arranged for and paid by
you. We will reimburse you for special transportation costs, up to
$300 per incident.
IF YOU HAVE TO PAY
If you have to pay for a service that is normally covered by the
program, you may claim reimbursement under the following
conditions:
• You must have called the toll-free number first for assistance
• Towing claims must be accompanied by the original detailed
repair bill and towing invoice
• Reimbursement will be limited to the local Roadside Assistance
contractor rates, to a maximum of $100 per incident, unless
otherwise noted
• Only original receipts, bills and/or charge card copies submitted by
you will be accepted for consideration for reimbursement.
Originals will be returned upon request
• Mail your claims to:
DaimlerChrysler Canada Roadside Assistance
248 Pall Mall, P.O. Box 5845
London, Ontario N6A 4T4
DaimlerChrysler Canada reserves the right to decline any claim
presented for payment later than 30 days from the date the service
was performed, or if service was provided by an unlicenced garage
or individual.

MAINTENANCE Scheduled 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 Mopar Lubricants and genuine Mopar
®Parts. In
the event that a condition arises between maintenance intervals, please contact your retailer. AV O I D
PROLONGED PERIODS OF IDLING.
NOTE: WHERE TIME (MONTHS) AND METRAGE ARE INDICATED, FOLLOW THE INTERVAL
THAT OCCURS FIRST.
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 the 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 the lights and all other electrical items
for correct operation.
• Check rubber seals on each side of the radiator
for proper fit.
• Check and clean wiper blades. Replace if required.
VISUAL INSPECTIONS –
INSPECT FOR SIGNS OF COMPONENT
DETERIORATION AND PHYSICAL DAMAGE.
There are two maintenance schedules
contained in your Owner’s Manual. Schedule
“B” best describes operating conditions in
Canada and is the recommended service
schedule. For your convenience, the scheduled
maintenance intervals outlined in this booklet
follow the Severe Service Schedule as described
in your Owner’s Manual. Schedule “B” is for
vehicles that are operated under one or more of
the following conditions: day or night tempera-
tures are below 0°C (90°F); stop-and-go driving;
extensive engine idling; driving in dusty
conditions; short trips of less than 16.2 km (10mi.); more than 50% of your driving is at
sustained high speeds during hot weather,
above 32°C (90°F); trailer towing; taxi, police, or
delivery service (commercial service); off-road
or desert driving; if equipped for and operating
with E-85 (ethanol) fuel. Schedule “A” is for
vehicles that are not operated under any of the
conditions listed under Schedule “B.”
The performance of all scheduled service
work is required to maintain your vehicle in
good operating condition. DaimlerChrysler
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, Jeep
®or Dodge
Retailer perform this work. INTRODUCTION
