I've seen a few comments regarding warranty's so I figured I would post warranty prices from Chryslerwarrantys.com. I used them to get my dealer to match their price for my 2009 Dodge Ram 1500 Laramie Lifetime Maxcare warranty which I paid $1625 for. Unfortunately, my buddy didn't listen to me and when he bought his Ram from a different dealership, he paid $2800 for the same warranty...OUCH! I plan on doing the same thing for the JGC. I'm only quoting Max Care not the Added Care Plus which is cheaper but covers less as well. Max Care is your typical "bumper to bumper" warranty. This assumes $100 deductible. There are options for $50 and $0 deductible which substantially increases the price. These are 5, 6 and 7 year options along with the Lifetime option. I'll be going with the lifetime option on the JGC like I did with my Ram. One other thing to note here is that when you buy an Extended Chrysler Warranty (at least the Lifetime one) you receive a booklet of 6 free oil change coupons. I received two booklets when I bought my Ram (one for the military $500 rebate which the JGC has and one for buying the extended warranty). Great deal if you ask me so in my opinion it's a no brainer. The Lifetime isn't transferable to anyone except in two states if I remember correctly but I plan on keeping my JGC quite a long time just as my truck so I love that peace of mind.
Curious, my 2006 had maxicaare EW and the card that came with the warranty stated Naxicare on it. Got 7/100K Maxicare on the 2011 and just got the card in the mail doesn't say maxicare on it. Anybody with maxicare received their card and does it say maxicare on it? Just want to make sure they have me signed up for maxicare. Doesn't say on the paperwork that came with the card also.
Don't know about "maxicare" but I have the lifetime unlimited mileage "MaxCare Plus". And it says that on the card. I have no idea what the plus means compared to regular lifetime bumper to bumper. Anyone know what the "plus" means?
The process for extended warranty work through Chrysler is the same system as the factory warranty. That is, the dealership enters the work order into Chrysler's computer system, and unless is exceeds a certain limit ($6000 I think), approval is automatic.
That's on of the main advantages over 3rd party warranties, since they do have to be called for preapproval on all repairs.
Ok guys, my JGC will be in Seattle on Wednesday, the 24th, I want to buy the lifetime extended warranty, but there is so much difference in price between the one linked here and the one on the "Jeep" website..................are we sure they are the same item? Help!
The one from chrysler warranties.com is sold from a Chrylser dealer in Wisconsin, they are the same thing. Be sure to get the coupon in your email to make it 1900 or so.
Thxs! i will do that myself, this site is first rate! I have learned more about my GC in 4wks being a member than i would have driving it for 5yrs! Lol, Thxs all!
Anybody tried eservicecontracts.com ?
All their prices seem a couple of hundred cheaper than Chryslerwarrantys.com (I have not received the reported discount coupon yet, so that would change things).
Their Lifetime Max Care with $100 ded is $1900.
After you select the $100 deductible Lifetime Max Care warranty, the next screen will offer you two add-ons. Owner Care Convenience Upgrade which is oil changes every 3K miles and a few other things already included in the lifetime maxcare warranty ($35 first day rental, $1000 trip interruption). The second option is the Customer Convenience Upgrade (just for tires though not wheels). There are other options but you'd have to call them since they don't show online (Scheduled Maintenance Care and Scheduled Maintenance Care Plus which are total scheduled maintenance plans for every scheduled maintenance item). I put a link below that shows you the names of the maintenance plan options.
How long has Chrysler been offering Lifetime coverage plans? I don't think they were offering anything beyond a 7 year Max Care plan when I was shopping for extended warranties for my WJ. For 2100 bucks, there is no way I wouldn't get one if you're planning on keeping the vehicle for awhile. If the coverage is transferrable, I can't think of any reason not to get one.
I'm not sure how long it's been around but I can say it's been around since at least 2009 when I purchased one for my Dodge Ram Laramie. It is NOT trasnferable though. Only in one state (North Carolina) is it transferable. Even still, it's well worth the price if you keep it a long time and/or drive really high mileage. People have gotten it for as little as $1850 for the Lifetime Max Care $100 deductible. The dealer cost for that plan was reported to be $1700.
Have any of you tried using the "$35 first day rental" option for getting a car when you leave your vehicle for a day of maintenance items only? It clearly sounds like that is what it is intended for but my dealer played really dumb when I asked about it. If so it would get around the no-loaner car problem.
I can only speak for my local dealership but if you mean getting a loaner for say an oil change, then my answer is no. I haven't asked but they are usually quick about it and we take two cars, drop of the truck and within an hour it's ready. I've never asked. When I did get the 30,000 service done however, I was given a loaner since it took most of the day. For any "issues" you're having, it should be automatic.
I know you have 60 days from you purchased it to return it and get your money back. How long since you bought it? If you are past the 60 days, you could call Chrysler and see if they offere something to upgrade but I'm not sure on that.
You have to buy within the first 12 months or 12000 miles to not have an increase in price of the warranty.
I bought mine from www.chryslerfactoryplans.com and once i registered with jeep owners site. It automatically appeared on my service contract section, since it is the authentic plan. The plan also states that I have $35 dollar rental coverage a day for a maximum of 5 days total. Was $1920 total with a 12 month 0% financing through Chrysler Financial and processing fee.
I have a Summit with QL and all the tech gadgets and it will be more than worth it in the long run...
You feel that the extra couple of hundred dollars is worth it? You dont think within 7yrs, or really 4yrs after the 3yr/36 expires, you won't use it just once? lol Thats all it takes, just one time! Granted if you NEVER go to the dealership and fix it yourself then you might get away with it, but I dont see how you won't make at least one trip if you don't want to pay? Thats why they now offer it though, take more money from people who end up using it but didn't think they would.. hehe :lol:
They seem to be about $200 dollars cheaper then what most people have bought from at www.chryslerwarrantys.com for the same exact product, and the same exact CODE.
Anyone in this thread know why the ROAD HAZARD program is NOT valid in NY, Wisconsin, or Wyoming? Seems like a good deal for 7yrs unlimited mileage and $250 bucks. Covers wheels, tires, aftermarket or OEM
Does anyone know what the differences are between the Added Care and Max Care plans? The lifetime Max Care quote that I'm seeing is about $500 more then the lifetime Added Care and I'm wondering what is NOT covered on Added Care that would account for the price difference...
There's plenty of information on this thread, but basically the MAX care is the way to go. The Max care covers over 5000+ parts over the 800+ parts on the Added care plan.
I purchased the maxcare lifetime warranty and received the contract but dont see anything in the contract that says I must get a free inspection withing 60 days of the 5 year purchase price to continue the warranty. Can someone please point this out to me.
I'm at work but it's in there. When I get home if someone else hasn't already told you the page, I'll let you know the exact page. I think it was under "Customer Responsibilities" section or something like that.
Correct. The Lifetime Maxcare is NON-TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT in Florida and North Carolina (must be purchased there). Any of the other plans are transferable and have some money back options.
So chryslerfactoryplans.com is definitely factory backed, accepted by all dealerships, right? I noticed they offer a tire AND wheel protection, chryslerwarrantys.com only offers tire protection.

Yeah they offer a road hazard program. If you search google you'll see the office plan on chrysler website, but also on chrysterfactoryplans it has a PDF about the road hazard.
