We have an add-on warranty package available through our Hendrick Autogaurd Division. This is a High-Tech coverage of 4yrs/48,000 miles which covers most everything in the vehicle. We just quoted a price for a Prowler owner that came to $2195.00. This coverage has a $100.00 deductable, covers rental car expenses also. It comes with a credit card which is used for covered repairs anywhere within the United States as long as the vehicle is at a ASE certified shop. This warranty coverange has a 94% approval rate compared to the industry standard of around 65%. More info is available to anyone who may be interested.

Be careful , you just may end up without coverage when the time comes.
Price isn't everything.

I have researched this in the past and what I learned was that you should not buy your extended when you purchase a new car. You end up overlapping coverage which is wasteful. Buy the extended just before your factory warranty is up. With a car like a prowler, most will exceed the time long before the miles so you want the time clock to start clicking at the end of the 3 year factory warranty.

1) Warranty Gold was recently in bankruptcy. Sugest you research them CAREFULLY if you are considering them.

2) The most valuable part (to me) of Chrysler's Maximum Care, so far, has been the free rental car when the prowler is at the dealer (for ANY reason except collision). This policy, at least, is designed to supplement the 3/36, not overlap with it.

Good points Growl. Warranty Gold did go into bankruptcy but I believe they are still in business. I mentioned it only as an example, not the one to choose. This is something that is definitely worthy of some extensive research.

I would recommend, as GRROWL mentioned, Causeway Chrysler-Jeep in Louisiana for a DC Mopar Maximum Care warranty. You choose your mileage limit and deductible settings - $0 $50 $100 deduct. This is Laddie's dealership and has provided the best price available for a long time. JMO

I'll have to dig up a name and number.

Call Bob Cooper at Causeway Chrsyler 985-892-9165 or 800-259-5337. The $100 over costs also applies to any Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep product you may want the Chrsyler extended warranty on...
