While the warranty benefits for a new Chrysler under the factory-limited warranty may last for three years or 36,000 miles, drivers can opt for longer-lasting coverage with an extended warranty plan. You can generally purchase a Chrysler extended warranty, which is provided through MOPAR, at your Chrysler dealership.

1. Multiple Coverage Plans

New vehicles covered by MOPAR’s vehicle protection plan have three tiers of coverage. The first tier is the MOPAR Powertrain Care Plan, which covers 300 vehicle components, particularly parts of the powertrain and transmission. 

The MOPAR Added Care Plus is the middle tier and covers 800 major vehicle components, such as the engine, transmission, and brake system. The MOPAR Maximum Care Plan covers 5,000 components and essentially functions as bumper-to-bumper coverage for most mechanical parts. Key mechanical components covered by this plan include the drivetrain, anti-lock brakes, air conditioning system, and suspension system. 

2. Additional Perks

Your MOPAR vehicle protection plan comes with added perks like an allowance for a rental car and trip interruption coverage, which reimburses you for certain travel-related expenses because of unexpected vehicle repairs. Roadside assistance and towing benefits are also perks of your MOPAR extended warranty, which means you can access assistance if you need a battery jump start or your vehicle needs to be towed to the nearest authorized repair shop. 

3. Long-Lasting Coverage

Extended warranty plans can last for eight years or 125,000 miles for the middle-tier plan. The extended warranty starts from the vehicle’s original warranty start date when your Chrysler was first purchased and the odometer was at zero miles. You can figure out the estimated length of your warranty by subtracting the current miles on your vehicle from 125,000 miles. 

Do Warranty Benefits Include GAP Insurance?

GAP insurance or guaranteed automotive protection is a bridge between what your extended warranty covers and the remaining payments on your vehicle. Typically, GAP insurance is used in cases where your vehicle is declared a total loss because of vandalism or an accident. When you purchase an extended warranty plan through MOPAR, you can opt for GAP insurance for additional peace of mind. 

An extended warranty can give you certain perks like roadside assistance and reduced fees for major vehicle repairs. Contact Snethkamp Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Gaylord in Gaylord, MI to ask about extended warranty plans today.
