EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

I got a post card from Dodge that says 50% off on the service plans. My car is the SRT so it does not have the lifetime power train warranty. The center told me bumper to bumper for lifetime with a $100 deductible is $2280. What do ya'll think and is this about what you found?

I'd say that's not that bad of a deal... It's makeing me want to see what kind of extended warranty I can get on my truck...

Buying extended warranties is like shopping for a car. You have to get the best price from your dealer.

The smartest way is to get on-line quotes and see if your local dealer can beat them. Two great sources are:

CHRYSLER SERVICE CONTRACTS

Also, you can get the 7-year / 70,000 warranty on an SRT for $1,440- $995 base plus $485 SRT surcharge (list price is is $2,580) from Wittrock Dodge at 1-800-712-792-9234 (ask for Keith Churchill). An added bonus- no sales tax.

hey now....the standard warranty on the SRT vs RT is one of the things that still has me deciding on which to get. I wasn't thinking about these service contracts. That kinda takes the warranty concern out of the equation if I can get a good deal. Nice!!!!

It may be cheaper for a SE than for the SRT8..

The original price was over $2000 for the lifetime bumper to bumper
I offered $1000 and after some more negotiating we settled on $1395..

But whatever price you pay it depends on how long you plan on keeping the car..
I plan on keeping mine for the rest of my life so it was a very easy decision..

What happens to extended warranties if Chrysler does not make it as a company?

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

That question (about Chrysler's future) is EXACTLY why I'm sitting on the sidelines waiting this out. I too plan on keeping my Vanishing Point forever, but if Chrysler is just weeks away from going out of business, then I don't want to hand over $2000 to them this week.

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

The best warranty to buy for your srt is available...it is a lifetime powertrain engine,trans and diff...go to the dealer it is called lp100n
go to you local dealer to purchase it ...it retails for $1550.00 dont pay anymore for it......
i suggest you go buy it a.s.a.p....

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

... before Chrysler goes out of business? Are you telling us something?

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

i don't think they are going out of business...its your choice...

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

Thanks Joani you too

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

I certainly hope they're not. I already have the 7-year extended warranty on my SE. ;)

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

I would think and hope that any existing warranties would be honored somewhere if Chrysler went under.

RE: EXTENDED WARRANTY
 

I have had similar thoughts, what happens to any warranty. If they go under, I suppose we are out of luck totally. If the merge, then the new company will have to honor the warranty. We can wait and see since you can purchase the extended plan at any time before you factory earranty expires. No need to rush into anything.
