## Your Coverage

New Jeep, RAM, Dodge, and Chrysler vehicles come with comprehensive warranty protection that typically covers defects in materials and workmanship. This protects your investment against unexpected repair costs.

**What's Included:**  
Engine, transmission, electrical, cooling, and structural components are generally covered. Specifics vary by model and model year.

**What's Not Covered:**  
Wear items like brake pads, wiper blades, batteries, and filters are normal maintenance costs, not warranty repairs. Damage from accidents or improper maintenance isn't covered either.

## Duration & Mileage

Warranty periods and mileage limits vary. Check your owner's manual or warranty document for your exact terms.

## Keep Records

Regular maintenance at a certified dealer protects your warranty. Use our Service Department to ensure all work is documented properly.

**Next step:** For detailed warranty terms specific to your vehicle, call our Finance team at (219) 250-9487, or review your warranty booklet. Our Service Department is ready to help keep your coverage intact.
