The Program does not cover winching or towing for
vehicles that become stuck while plowing snow.

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.
