Why do you say, "real Prowler techs are extinct"? I am still going to the same Prowler tech, at the same dealership, since the day I purchased mine almost 13 years ago. This message has been edited by Y2KRedProwler on 08-03-2012 at 10:28 PM |

They're not extinct but definitely on the endangered list. They just don't make them anymore. I would call the major Chrysler dealerships in the area and ask if they still have one on staff. Even if they don't have one, their mechanics have access to all the technical data. The dealership I went to last didn't have one but they realized the car was special and they treated it with a lot of respect. They even took pictures with their staff and posted them on their FB page. |

Those techs went to Prowler school 15 years ago... Probably have forgot most things unique to the Prowler by now since so many sit in the garage, and never come in for service. I'd look for a Dodge dealer with a Viper tech,,,most likely the best wrench at the dealership. |

I have been to 2 different dealers here in Chicago that have Prowler Techs. So they are not extinct as the experts say. |

There is a shop in Ontario that services a few Prowlers for the owners... I can't remember the name of the shop, maybe the Ontario guys can post up with their suggestions.. |

The dealership I went to last year sold Prowlers. I don't know if they all did and I am sure someone here knows. They still had a Tech that was trained on the Prowler but I didn't get to talk to him. Did you notice that when the name Tech is added that the price goes up. Now they have Tire Tech's. Used to be it was some kid in the shop that got a move up from sweeping the floors. I am not degrading training and experience because at times it does help and you should expect to pay someone for their expertise and experience. |

There is a guy in the north GTA that knows his stuff. I haven't used him but I can email you that info. I'm wondering if any senior mechanic in a Chrysler dealership has the knowledge and resources to handle 95% of the prowler.It's a fairly simple car with modern technology. Isn't it? Does anyone know what a prowler tech is taught that other chrysler techs aren't. |

There is also another dealer on the south side of Chicago. Maybe Chi town prowler will read this and post the dealer for no reason. The initial post was for Canada. |

my hot rod guy says he can login to some chrysler site (using his brother-in-law's password) Where he can enter his problems and/or symptoms and come back with any number of similar experiences and fixes of other chrysler techs around the world. He can do this for the prowler. |

Who is starting trouble? YOU! Your 3 quotes: "First off you don't have any friends here looking for Prowler Techs."
Get a clue....the question was about Canada area,,not Chicago area. |

No disrespect meant to anyone here but only reason I mentioned there was a prowler tech at Stephens Chrysler in Greenwich NY (Todd) was in response to the thought they were extinct. He's a super nice guy and he still has all the paper manuals right next to his desk. He gave me copies of them for nothing. I'm sure he would help out a dealership in Canada if there was some knowledge he could impart. Hope this is helpful to initial poster. Thanx guys. |

i guess i offended y2k since he hasnt answered the post,or maybe he wants to keep it a secret.who cares.any qualified mopar tech can work on a prowler,lets face it,all cars are basically built the same,you might need expertise in the things alley cat suggested,i should have put almost extinct.after 15 yrs.most have left that dealer or are retired.ill bet there isnt 25 9n the whole usa.wcp,you dont know crap.its pretty dam lame when you have to go to a website and as somebody what kind of car to buy,thats really lame,kinda of like asking what kind of food should you buy.the only real parts on a cat that would need special training maybe woud be the driveshaft and transaxle. ------------------ This message has been edited by catfish on 08-04-2012 at 07:03 PM |

Many Toronto and southern Ontario Prowler owners use a private shop for their maintenance and repairs. The owner drives a Viper and his employees know Prowlers inside out. The name is D&J Automotive, 8060 Kipling Avenue, Woodbridge,Ontario. Highly recommended!! |
