ABOUT ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE
The Chrysler 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, auto
cross 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 Chrysler 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 any9incidental or consequential damages9
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 commer-
cial property, loss of revenue, etc.
All service providers are independent contractors and are not employees or
agents of Chrysler 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.

/chrysler/chry-intl/warr-maint/146224-hghev-english/warranty
Chrysler 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 consid-
erable distance from a Chrysler Canada Retailer, we reserve the right to
engage a nearby non-Chrysler 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:
²You must have called the toll-free number first for assistance
²Towing claims must be accompanied by the original detailed repair bill
and towing invoice
²Reimbursement will be limited to the local Roadside Assistance
contractor rates, to a maximum of $100 per incident, unless otherwise
noted
²Only original receipts, bills and/or charge card copies submitted by you
will be accepted for consideration for reimbursement. Originals will be
returned upon request
²Mail your claims to:
Chrysler Canada Roadside Assistance
248 Pall Mall, P.O. Box 5845
London, Ontario N6A 4T4
Chrysler 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.

As complete as our new warranty is, it may not give you total protection
for your ownership period, nor does it provide the regular maintenance

condition. If you lease a vehicle, you should be aware of your obligation to
maintain and repair the vehicle.
Chrysler Canada Service Contracts can enhance your new vehicle's factory
warranty from the day of delivery and provide mechanical coverage on
most major components

types of plans available for purchase to suit most needs and the average
length of ownership.
Vehicles placed in police, taxi, limousine, postal or ambulance service and
all SRT vehicles may qualify for a service contract. Please see your selling
retailer for9Special Use9Service Contract availability.
