1. Your Legal Rights Under
These Limited Warranties
The warranties contained in this booklet are the only
express warranties that Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler)
makes for your Abarth. These warranties give you
specific legal rights. You may also have other rights
that vary from state to state. For example, you may
have some implied warranties, depending on the state
where your Abarth was sold or is registered.
These implied warranties are limited, to the extent
allowed by law, to the time periods covered by the express
written warranties contained in this booklet.
If you use your Abarth primarily for business or com-
mercial purposes, then these implied warranties do not
apply and Chrysler completely disclaims them to the extent
allowed by law. And the implied warranty of fitness for a
particular purpose does not apply if your Abarth is used for
racing, even if the vehicles is equipped for racing. Some states do not allow limitations on how long an
implied warranty lasts, so the above limitations may not
apply to you.
1.1 Incidental and Consequential
Damages Not Covered
Your warranties don’t cover any incidental or conse-
quential damages connected with your Abarth’s fail-
ure, either while under warranty or afterward.Examples of such damages include:
 lost time;
 inconvenience;
 the loss of the use of your Abarth;
 the cost of rental vehicles, gasoline, telephone, travel,
or lodging;
 the loss of personal or commercial property; and
 the loss of revenue.
Some states don’t allow incidental or consequential
damages to be excluded or limited, so this exclusion may
not apply to you.

2. What’s Covered Under
Chrysler Group LLC’s
Warranties
2.1 Basic Limited Warranty A.
Who Is Covered?
You are covered by the Basic Limited Warranty if you
are a purchaser for use of the Abarth.
B. What’s Covered
The Basic Limited Warranty covers the cost of all parts
and labor needed to repair any item on your Abarth when
it left the manufacturing plant that is defective in
material, workmanship or factory preparation. There is
no list of covered parts since the only exception is tires.
You pay nothing for these repairs covered by the Basic
Limited Warranty. These warranty repairs or adjustments — including all parts and labor connected with them —
will be made by your authorized FIAT repair facility at
no charge, using new or remanufactured parts.
C. Items Covered by Other Warranties
The following are covered by separate warranties offered
by their makers. They are
not coveredby the Basic
Limited Warranty:
 tires; or
 items added or changed after your Abarth left the
manufacturing plant, such as accessories or protection
products, or items changed because of customization.
Be sure you get a copy of any warranty that applies to
these items from your dealer, or from the maker of the
product. You can find the tire warranty statements in
your Owner’s Literature Package.

D. Towing Costs Are Covered Under Certain
CircumstancesRoadside Assistance covers the cost of towing your
Abarth to the nearest authorized FIAT repair facility if
your vehicle can’t be driven because a covered part has
failed. Roadside Assistance lasts for up to 4 years, with
no mileage limit, calculated from the warranty start date.
See Section 6.2 for information on how to get Roadside
Assistance service in the United States and Canada.
E. When It Begins
The Basic Limited Warranty begins on either of the
following dates, whichever is earlier:
the date you take delivery of the Abarth; or
 the date when the Abarth was first put into service —
for example, as a dealer “demo” or as a Chrysler
company vehicle.
F. When It Ends
The Basic Limited Warranty lasts for 4 years from the
date it begins or for 50,000 miles on the odometer,
whichever occurs first. But the following items are
covered only for 12 months or for 12,000 miles on the
odometer, whichever occurs first:
 brakes (rotors, pads, linings, and drums);
 wiper blades;
 clutch discs or modular clutch assembly (as
equipped);
 windshield and rear window; and
 wheel alignment and wheel balancing.

G. Registration and Operation RequirementsThe Basic Limited Warranty covers your Abarth only if:

it was built for sale in the U.S.;
 it’s registered in the U.S.;
 it’s driven mainly in the U.S. or Canada; and
 it’s operated and maintained in the manner described
in your Owner’s Manual. H. If Your Abarth Leaves the United States (We
Include U.S. Possessions and Territories as
Part of the United States for Warranty
Purposes):
EXCEPT WHERE SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED
BY LAW, THERE IS NO WARRANTY
COVERAGE ON THIS ABARTH IF IT IS SOLD
IN OR REGISTERED IN COUNTRIES OTHER
THAN THE UNITED STATES.
This policy does not apply to an Abarth that has re-
ceived authorization for export from Chrysler. Dealers
may not give authorization for export. You should con-
sult an authorized dealer to determine Abarth’s war-
ranty coverage if you have any questions.
This policy does not apply to an Abarth registered to
U.S. government officials or military personnel on as-
signment outside of the United States.
