ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
ABOUT ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
The DaimlerChrysler Canada Roadside Assistance Program is not a warranty, but the coverage is concurrent with the Basic andPowertrain Warranties. Covered service must be provided in Canada or the continental United States and is limited to plated and insuredvehicles which 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, recreationalareas, construction sites, open fields and private roads). Cross-country, logging, autocross and any other form of off-road use isnot 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 dealership to another, or service if thedriver 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 dealer.
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 damagesuffered when it left the road, the tow will not be covered.
The Program does not cover any Òincidental or consequential
damagesÓ connected with the failure of your vehicle or providingservices to you. Such damages include lost time, inconvenience, lossof 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 damageto your vehicle or personal property resulting from providing roadsideservice is the responsibility of the roadside service provider (thetowing 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 anyrepairs are performed.
