ALLEY CAT	Help me with this one: If buying a Prowler out of original factory warranty, can a Chrysler Max Care extended warranty still be purchased? Thanks AC
GRROWL	Hey, AC, Does this answer it? ======================== "When can I purchase a new or a pre-owned DaimlerChrysler Service Contract? For new vehicle owners, you are eligible to purchase a new DaimlerChrysler Service Contract any time during the manufacturer's 3/36 basic warranty. On new vehicle service contracts purchased after 1, 2 and 3 years, an additional surcharge will apply. All major new vehicle plans are eligible within the 48 months and 48,000 miles. Other new car plans must be purchased at time of vehicle sale. Please see your DaimlerChrysler Dealer for complete eligibility requirements. All pre-owned DaimlerChrysler Service Contracts must be sold at time of vehicle sale and must be purchased through a DaimlerChrysler Franchised Dealer." ============================ Two points: 1. I think the last time we looked this up, you only had 3 years/36,000 miles to upgrade an existing contract - the second paragraph now states that it is 48/48,000. 2. Since the new car 3/36,000 is transferrable with the car, I would assume that the first paragraph applies to second owners as well and that they have 3/36,000 to buy a new extended warranty (but there's a premium after 1 and 2 years, as we found last time). -GRROWL
ALLEY CAT	Thanks GRROWL I guess my question is 'if' buying a used Prowler from a private owner and 'out' of factory warranty (3/36), is it possible to buy a Chrysler extended warranty. Car is still within the 48 month window from build date and in-service date. AC
ALLEY CAT	anyone else who can contribute? Thanks
soliday	Perhaps it is because I am friends with the service manager, but I was told that I could get the extended warrenty whenever I wanted. The years and miles would begin when the car was originally sold.
Possum9	I purchased the extended service and upgraded my warranty to 7 yrs/75k. I also purchased this same warranty for my PT Cruiser which I purchased from a private party. The amount of the contract goes by how many miles are on the car. The PT had 37k and it cost me $1400 through Daimler Crysler Service Contracts (1-800-521-9922) I will say when I took my Prowler in with 6k miles and complained about the chrome on the wheels flaking, I was told to call Chrysler by the service manager and after going back and forth from dealer to Chrysler, I was told they would not cover the wheels. The service contract covers over 5,000 parts and is supposed to be one of the best, but not for wheels.
