New Jeep, RAM, Dodge, and Chrysler vehicles from Castle CDJR of Chesterton come with a **factory warranty** that typically covers major components (engine, transmission, drivetrain, electronics) for a set period-usually 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. Some coverage extends longer (like 5 years or 60,000 miles for powertrain).

What's **not** covered: regular maintenance (oil, filters, brakes, tires), wear items, damage from accidents or misuse, and routine cosmetic issues.

Your exact warranty terms depend on the vehicle and model year. Keeping up with scheduled maintenance at an authorized dealer (like Castle CDJR of Chesterton Service) is key to keeping warranty protection valid.

Curious about your specific warranty? Ask during your purchase or call **(219) 250-9487** to review your vehicle's coverage details.
