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 FCA 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.
FCA 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 recommend that you return to your selling retailer for all service, both during and after
the warranty periods. FCA 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.
FCA 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 FCA Retailer. We recommend that you return to your
selling retailer for this service; however, you may request warranty service for your vehicle from any
FCA Retailer. See “How to get service” on page 8.
NAME AND ADDRESS CHANGES
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 FCA Canada Customer Records Department
at 1-800-373-1474. You can also request to have these changes completed by any authorized FCA
Canada retailer.
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 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 FCA parts and equipment (that is,
FCA parts or equipment installed by FCA 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 FCA parts (see page 9).

EXCHANGE PARTS
To reduce the amount of time your vehicle is out of service due to repairs, FCA may offer exchange
service on some parts. Mopar
brand exchange parts may be new, remanufactured, reconditioned or
repaired, but all meet FCA 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 FCA 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 FCA 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 FCA on your behalf.

ARBITRATION
If you are still not satisfied after following the three steps on the previous page, you have yet another
option.
FCA Canada Inc. participates in an arbitration program administered by the Canadian Motor Vehicle
Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP). CAMVAP will advise you about how your complaint may be reviewed
and resolved by an independent third party through binding arbitration.
Our goal and that of our retailers is your complete satisfaction. FCA Canada’s participation in
CAMVAP makes a valuable contribution to our achievement of that goal. There is no charge for using
CAMVAP. CAMVAP results are fast, fair and final, as the award is binding on both you and FCA
Canada Inc..
CAMVAP has been implemented in all provinces and territories. For more information, you can call
CAMVAP directly or call our Customer Assistance Centre. Please provide your Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN).

5/100 ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM
We are pleased to provide this 24-hour Roadside Assistance Program for all new 2017 vehicles which
have a 3-year or 60,000-kilometre Basic Warranty and a5-year or 100,000-kilometre Powertrain
Warranty. Eligible vehicles must be registered in Canada and are covered for 5 years or 100,000
kilometers, whichever occurs first, from the vehicle’s warranty start date. Vehicles placed in taxi,
police, limousine, postal or ambulance service and all SRT vehicles, are covered for roadside
assistance for 3 years or 60,000 kilometers only (whichever occurs first). Roadside Assistance service
will be provided to the owner or driver of an eligible vehicle.
• NEED A TOW? If your vehicle cannot be driven because of mechanical breakdown, it will be
towed to the nearest authorized FCA Retailer which services your brand of vehicle (or to the FCA
Retailer of your choice, provided it is within a 35-kilometre distance of the point of breakdown).
• STUCK? If your vehicle is stuck in a ditch or snow on or adjacent to a public roadway and appears
to be undamaged, and the tow facility has access, it will be winched to the nearest road surface. If your
vehicle is unable to proceed under its own power and a tow is required once the winch is performed,
you will be responsible for paying the service facility for the winch and the tow.
• DEAD BATTERY? If your battery is dead, jump-start assistance will be dispatched to your
location. In the event that your vehicle fails to start, your vehicle will be towed to the nearest FCA
Retailer (or to the FCA Retailer of your choice provided it is within a 35-kilometre distance of the
point of breakdown).
• LOCKED OUT? If your keys are locked in your vehicle or your locks are frozen, help will be sent
to your location. (Service is limited to providing access to the seating area only and does not include
the cost of replacing keys.)
• 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 11) because there are some limitations that may
affect the service available to you.

IN REMOTE LOCATIONS
If your vehicle suffers a warrantable mechanical breakdown at a considerable distance from a FCA
Retailer, we reserve the right to engage a nearby non-FCA 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:

London, Ontario N6A 4T4
FCA 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 unlicensed garage or individual.
