PRIVACY STATEMENT

Your privacy is very important to us. Following is a brief summary of our Privacy Statement. To view CCI’s complete Privacy Statement, please visit our website at www.chrysler.ca/privacy.

CCI takes privacy very seriously. We collect personal information to better serve our customers, for safety, security and regulatory reasons, and to provide customers and potential customers with information about our products and services. We endeavour to have a lifelong relationship with customers. Therefore, we may retain any personal information that you provide, unless otherwise instructed. The information will remain confidential to CCI and its affiliated companies., to businesses working for us, and to any organization that acquires all or part of our business, provided that they agree to comply with our privacy statement or notify you of material changes. If you indicate an interest in evaluating or purchasing our products and/or services, it may be shared with a specific dealer and/or a CCI-related financial services provider. If you do not wish to receive our marketing information, please e-mail our Privacy Officer at privacyofficer.ca@chrysler.com.

By providing CCI with your personal information, you are deemed to have consented to CCI using and disclosing it for the purposes described in this statement.

CCI collects, uses, and may disclose to the selected parties mentioned in this statement, your basic contact information, information about your purchase and use of our products, or your opinions and experiences regarding our products and services. Our purposes are to assist you in making your purchases and to provide an excellent service, to develop better products, enhance our compliance with regulatory requirements and offer you benefits and product information.

As a rule, CCI will not disclose your personal information to third parties. However there are exceptions:

1. From time to time, we use third-party sub-contractors located in Canada and the United States to provide certain services, such as customer service. While your personal information is disclosed to such parties, they are required to comply with CCI’s Privacy Statement and not use or retain your personal information for their own purposes.

2. If information about your services is anonymized, so that the individual customer is no longer identifiable, then it is not personal information anymore. We may disclose anonymized information at any time to anyone we choose.

PRIVACY STATEMENT

3. If CCI, in whole or in part, is acquired by another company, your personal information will be transferred to the new company along with the rest of the assets, provided that the company either agrees to abide by CCI’s then existing Privacy Statement, or agrees to notify you forthwith about any proposed changes to the privacy statement and allows you an opportunity to request that your personal information be deleted.

4. CCI will disclose your personal information without your consent as required by law or permitted by Canada’s Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act or by provincial law, whichever is applicable.

We anticipate that at some time in the future it may be necessary to make changes to our Privacy Statement.

YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

WARRANTY

INFORMATION

YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

All of the warranties in this booklet are limited warranties and they give you specific legal rights. You may also have other rights which vary from province to province. Some provinces do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, or limitation of how long an implied warranty lasts or who is eligible for coverage, so the stated limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

The limited warranties in this booklet are the only express warranties made by Chrysler Canada Inc. applicable to this vehicle. Any implied warranty or condition of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose applicable to this vehicle is limited in duration to the duration of these limited warranties.

Chrysler Canada Inc. shall not be liable for commercial loss, special or consequential damages resulting from breach of these written warranties or of any implied warranty or condition.

PERATION ANDMAINTENANCE

It is your responsibility under the terms of these warranties to operate and maintain your vehicle as recommended in the Owner’s Manual. Regular scheduled maintenance, described in your Owner’s Manual and herein, is essential to trouble-free operation.

We strongly recommend that you return to your selling retailer for all service, both during and after the warranty periods. Chrysler Canada Retailers are best equipped and trained to provide all levels of service and maintenance for your vehicle.

YOUR RIGHTS AND RESPONSIBILITIES

High-tech diagnostic equipment is sometimes needed to service a vehicle efficiently and accurately. Chrysler Canada Retailers have unique diagnostic computers and electronic and mechanical tools, specially designed to service our cars and trucks, and we provide special technical training so their technicians can render the skilled care your vehicle needs.

ARRANTY SERVICE

Warranty service must be done by an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer. We recommend that you return to your selling retailer for this service; however, you may request warranty service for your vehicle from any Chrysler Retailer. See “How to get service” on page 15.

AME AND ADDRESS CHANGES

The Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Act requires vehicle manufacturers to notify owners if the correction of a safety-related defect becomes necessary. If you change your name or address, or if you are a subsequent owner of this vehicle, please call the Chrysler Canada Customer Records Department at 1-800-373-1474. You can also request to have these changes completed by any authorized Chrysler Canada retailer.

ABOUT YOUR WARRANTIES

ARRANTY START DATE

Time and distance limitations for all warranty coverage are measured from the vehicle’s ⬙warranty start date,⬙ which is the date when the vehicle was originally delivered or first used, whichever occurred first.

EHICLES COVERED

The warranties in this booklet cover new vehicles only which are built for sale in Canada and are registered and normally operated in Canada. The warranties apply to all owners of the vehicle.

OVERED REPAIRS

The warranties in this booklet cover repairs to factory-installed Chrysler parts and equipment (that is, Chrysler parts or equipment installed by Chrysler or by the selling retailer before the vehicle was delivered to the first owner), if the repairs were necessary because of a defect in material or workmanship. Covered repairs will be done without charge, using new or remanufactured Chrysler parts (see page 16).

OWING IS COVERED

If your vehicle has to be towed because a part covered by warranty failed, towing to the nearest Chrysler or Dodge Retailer will be covered by the Roadside Assistance Program (for details, see page 20).

Important: Some vehicles have special towing requirements. See your Owner’s Manual for towing instructions.

3/60 BASIC WARRANTY

If required because of a defect in material or workmanship, the 3/60 Basic Warranty will cover the adjustment, repair or replacement of any factoryinstalled part of your vehicle except tires for 3 years or 60,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first.

• light bulbs and fuses

• wiper blades

• clutch discs

• brakes (rotors, pads, linings and drums)

• windshield and rear window

• wheel alignment and wheel balancing

Tires are warranted by the tire manufacturers, not by Chrysler. For details, see the tire manufacturer’s warranty booklet in your glovebox. Your Chrysler Retailer may be able to assist you if you experience a problem with a factory-installed tire.

Tires and spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread. Failure to follow this warning can result in sudden tire failure. You could lose control and have an accident resulting in serious injury or death.

5/100 POWERTRAIN WARRANTY

The following powertrain components are covered for 5 years or 100,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first, measured from the vehicle’s original

warranty start date.

Vehicles placed in taxi, limousine, postal or ambulance service and all SRT vehicles are excluded from the 5-year or 100,000-kilometre Powertrain Warranty and are covered only under the 3-year or 60,000-kilometre Basic Warranty.

For 3 years, regardless of distance driven, your Corrosion Warranty covers any body sheet metal panel which develops a hole caused by corrosion.

In addition, outer body panels are covered against holes caused by corrosion up to 5 years or 160,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first. An outer body panel is a sheet metal panel which can be seen while walking around the vehicle, and which is painted body colour.

This warranty applies only to holes caused by corrosion. Cosmetic or surface corrosion (resulting from stone chips or scratches in the paint, for example) will not be repaired under this warranty.

If corrosion damage is obviously neglected and allowed to worsen until a hole develops, this warranty will not cover the repair.

EMISSION WARRANTIES

Chrysler Canada warrants that your new vehicle was designed, built and equipped to conform at the time of sale with applicable federal and provincial emissions standards, and that the vehicle is, at the time of sale, free from defects in material and workmanship which would cause it to fail to conform to the applicable emission standards within the warranty periods specified. A covered defect is one which causes your vehicle to fail to meet applicable emission control regulations.

To keep your vehicle operating properly and in conformance with emission regulations, see the ⬙Scheduled Maintenance⬙ instructions in your Owner’s Manual and herein. Only Chrysler parts should be used for maintenance and repair of your vehicle’s emission control systems.

You should keep any receipts for maintenance service and pass them on to the next owner of your vehicle, in case questions arise concerning maintenance. Chrysler Canada has the right to deny warranty coverage if your vehicle has not been properly maintained, or if repairs are needed because parts other than Chrysler parts were used; however, denial will not be based on the lack of maintenance records alone.

Warranty service must be performed by an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer.

If emergency warranty service is required and an authorized retailer is not available, contact Chrysler Canada Customer Assistance (page 18) and request emission warranty service help.

EMISSION DEFECT WARRANTY / EMISSION PERFORMANCE WARRANTY

EMISSION DEFECT WARRANTY

The 3/60 Basic Warranty covers all emission control components for 3 years or 60,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first. The Emission Defect Warranty provides longer coverage for specified components.

The Defect Warranty covers the following major emission control parts, if so equipped, for 8 years or 130,000-kilometres, whichever occurs first:

• catalytic converter

• powertrain control module

EMISSION PERFORMANCE WARRANTY

The Emission Performance Warranty only applies to cars and trucks with a GVW less than 3,855 kg (8,500 lb).

For 2 years or 40,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first, the Performance Warranty will cover the cost of repairing or adjusting any components or parts of your vehicle that might be necessary to pass an approved provincial Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) program’s emissions test, but only if:

• your vehicle failed an approved provincial I/M emissions test; and

• your vehicle was properly maintained and operated until it failed the

test; and

• warranty service is required in order for your vehicle to pass the provincial I/M test

Provincial test fees, if any, are not covered by this warranty.

OW TO GET SERVICE UNDER THIS WARRANTY

If your vehicle fails an approved I/M emissions test within the Emission Performance Warranty period, take it to an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer as soon as possible. Give the service representative the printout that shows your vehicle failed the test. If possible, bring all service receipts, maintenance logs and records to prove that your vehicle has been properly maintained.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED

AMAGE FROM MISUSE OR ACCIDENT

The warranties in this booklet do not cover repairs required due to fire, accidents, abuse, negligence, objects striking your vehicle, carrying corrosive materials (such as chemicals, acids and fertilizers), misuse (such as driving over curbs, overloading, spinning wheels, etc.), racing or participating in a racing event, improper disconnection of components, modifying the exhaust system, tampering or making adjustments which do not comply with Chrysler specifications.

Disconnecting, tampering with or changing the reading of the odometer will void your warranties.

AMAGE FROM THE ENVIRONMENT

The warranties in this booklet do not cover fading or deterioration caused by exposure to the elements, or repairs required due to airborne fallout, acid rain, chemicals, tree sap, insects, bird or insect droppings, salt, sand, gravel, road hazards, hail, windstorms, lightning, floods or any other event of nature.

Road salt, car washes, scuffs and scratches, and everyday abrasion from sand and dirt can affect the appearance of a vehicle’s wheels (steel, chrome and aluminum) and other undercarriage parts. Some surface corrosion with use is normal; it is not a defect and is not covered by any warranty.

ORMAL MAINTENANCE AND WEAR

The warranties in this booklet do not cover normal maintenance services, such as oil and filter changes, general lubrication, tire rotation, engine tune-ups and replacing spark plugs. Required maintenance services are described in detail in your Owner’s Manual and herein. The warranties also do not cover worn wiper blades, clutch discs, brake rotors, pads, linings or drums, windshield and rear window, wheel alignment and wheel balancing (unless they are defective, see page 7).

WHAT IS NOT COVERED

AMAGE FROM IMPROPER MAINTENANCE

The warranties in this booklet do not cover repairs required due to improper maintenance, lack of maintenance, use of contaminated or dirty fuels or failure to use the proper fuels and lubricants recommended in the Owner’s Manual and herein.

XTRA EXPENSES

The warranties in this booklet do not cover incidental or consequential damages such as loss of use of your vehicle, loss of time, inconvenience, expense for fuel, telephone, travel, rental car, overnight accommodation, loss or damage to your personal property, commercial loss, loss of income, etc.

NON-C

HRYSLER MODIFICATIONS

The warranties in this booklet do not cover repairs required because of non-Chrysler modifications, installation of special equipment or accessories, or use of special materials, fuels or additives. This includes special bodies, body conversions, fuel system conversions, trailer hitches, window tints, sunroofs, theft alarms, etc. Non-Chrysler modifications do not by themselves void your warranty, but they are not covered by your warranty.

NON-C

HRYSLER PARTS

The warranties in this booklet do not cover parts, equipment, materials or additives not supplied by Chrysler or not certified for use on your vehicle. Performance and racing parts are considered to be non-Chrysler parts.

WHAT IS NOT COVERED

EXPORTED VEHICLES

EXCEPT WHERE SPECIFICALLY REQUIRED BY LAW, THERE IS NO WARRANTY COVERAGE ON THIS VEHICLE IF IT IS SOLD IN OR REGISTERED IN COUNTRIES OTHER THAN CANADA.

This policy does not apply to vehicles that have received authorization for export from Chrysler Canada. Retailers may not give authorization for export. You should consult an authorized retailer to determine this vehicle’s warranty coverage if you have any questions.

This policy does not apply to vehicles registered to Canadian Government officials or military personnel on assignment outside of Canada.

(See also page 15.)

OTAL LOSS AND SALVAGE VEHICLES

Any vehicle that is declared to be a total loss by any insurance company, or is rebuilt after being declared to be a total loss, or is otherwise designated as ⬙salvage,⬙⬙scrap,⬙⬙rebuilt⬙ or words of similar impact will no longer have any warranty coverage.

Chrysler Canada will deny warranty coverage without notice if it learns that a vehicle is ineligible for coverage for any of these reasons.

ESTRICTED WARRANTY

Chrysler Canada may restrict the warranty on your vehicle if the vehicle is not properly maintained, or if it is abused or neglected and the abuse or neglect interferes with the proper functioning of the vehicle. If the warranty is restricted, coverage may be denied or subject to approval by Chrysler Canada before repairs are performed.

HOW TO GET SERVICE

INC

ANADA

Warranty service must be done by an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer. If you move or are travelling in Canada, warranty service may be requested from any authorized Chrysler Retailer, but preferably one who sells the same Chrysler or Dodge brand vehicle as yours.

N THEUNITEDSTATES(INCLUDING

TERRITORIES

If you are travelling temporarily in the United States or Mexico, and your vehicle remains registered in Canada, your Chrysler Canada Warranty will still apply. Service may be requested at any authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer.

N A FOREIGN COUNTRY OUTSIDE OFNORTHAMERICA

If you are travelling temporarily outside of North America, and your vehicle remains registered in Canada, you should take your vehicle to an authorized Chrysler or Dodge Retailer. If the authorized retailer charges you for repairs which you feel should be covered under your warranty, please get a detailed receipt for the work done. When your vehicle returns to Canada, contact the Chrysler Canada Customer Assistance Centre

)

ANDMEXICO

U.S. P

OSSESSIONS AND

(page 18) for reimbursement consideration. Reimbursement will not be considered if the vehicle does not return to Canada.

F YOU MOVE

If you are moving to another country, be sure to contact the customs department of the destination country before you move. Vehicle importation rules vary considerably from country to country.

If you are moving to the United States, be sure to also contact the Chrysler Motors Customer Assistance office at 1-800-992-1997 to obtain the necessary documentation to register your vehicle and to determine warranty eligibility in the U.S.

OTICE

If your vehicle is registered outside of Canada, and you have not followed the procedure set out above, your vehicle will no longer be eligible for warranty coverage of any kind. (Vehicles registered to Canadian Government officials or military personnel on assignment outside of Canada will continue to be covered by the Basic Warranty.)

OTHER THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

PTIONAL SERVICE CONTRACT

Chrysler Canada has a service contract specially designed for most new vehicles, to cover repair costs beyond your vehicle’s warranty. Protection is available for almost every operating part of your vehicle, and at reasonable cost.

Chrysler Canada stands fully behind its service contracts. Be sure that the contract you buy is a genuine Chrysler Service Contract. We are not responsible for other companies’ contracts. See page 24 for details on available service contracts.

PPEARANCE ITEMS

Defects or damage to sheet metal, paint, trim and other appearance items are normally found and corrected during new vehicle inspection. For your protection, if you find any such defect or damage, you should tell your selling retailer immediately, because if the problem worsens due to use and exposure, repairs will not be covered by any warranty.

RODUCTION CHANGES

Chrysler Canada and its retailers reserve the right to make changes in vehicles built and/or sold at any time without incurring any obligations to make the same or similar changes on vehicles which were built and/or sold previously.

XCHANGE PARTS

To reduce the amount of time your vehicle is out of service due to repairs, Chrysler may offer exchange service on some parts. Mopar brand exchange parts may be new, remanufactured, reconditioned or repaired, but all meet Chrysler standards and are warranted the same as new parts. Examples of parts that may be serviced by exchange include engines, transmissions, instrument clusters, radios, tape and CD players, speedometers and various electronic modules.

or Autopar™

威

OTHER THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW

ECLAIMED REFRIGERANT

To help control suspected ozone-depleting agents, regulations require the capture, purification and reuse of automotive refrigerant gases. As a result, any repairs to the sealed portion of your air conditioning system, if so equipped, may involve the installation of purified reclaimed refrigerant.

IGITAL VIDEO AND COMPACT DISCS(DVD/CD

There are some things you should know about non-commercial DVDs and CDs. Labels applied to home-recorded discs may curl, buckle or peel off. This can result in ejection failure, and repairs required to remove a “stuck” disc are not covered by warranty. In addition, some home-recorded discs may not be compatible with automotive players and may skip or produce error messages. If you encounter this, check your player by using a commercial disc which is known to be playable. If a disc is not compatible with the player, replacing or servicing the player will not solve the problem.

)

1. Discuss the matter with the Service Manager of your Chrysler Retailer; then with the General Manager or owner, if necessary.

2. Give your retailer a reasonable length of time or number of opportunities to satisfy you. In fact, your retailer may contact Chrysler on your behalf.

ARBITRATION

If you are still not satisfied after following the three steps on the previous page, you have yet another option.

Chrysler Canada participates in an arbitration program administered by the Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP). CAMVAP will advise you about how your complaint may be reviewed and resolved by an independent third party through binding arbitration.

Our goal and that of our retailers is your complete satisfaction. Chrysler Canada’s participation in CAMVAP makes a valuable contribution to our achievement of that goal. There is no charge for using CAMVAP. CAMVAP results are fast, fair and final, as the award is binding on both you and Chrysler Canada.

CAMVAP has been implemented in all provinces and territories. For more information, you can call CAMVAP directly or call our Customer Assistance Centre. Please provide your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).

5/100 ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

We are pleased to provide this 24-hour Roadside Assistance Program for all new 2011 vehicles which have a 3-year or 60,000-kilometre Basic Warranty and a 5-year or 100,000-kilometre Powertrain Warranty. Eligible vehicles must be registered in Canada and are covered for 5 years or 100,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first, from the vehicle’s warranty start date. Vehicles placed in taxi, limousine, postal or ambulance service and all SRT vehicles, are covered for roadside assistance for 3 years or 60,000 kilometres only (whichever occurs first). Roadside Assistance service will be provided to the owner or driver of an eligible vehicle.

• NEED A TOW? If your vehicle cannot be driven because of mechanical breakdown, it will be towed to the nearest authorized Chrysler Canada Retailer which services your brand of vehicle (or to the Chrysler Canada Retailer of your choice, provided it is within a 35-kilometre distance of the point of breakdown).

• STUCK? If your vehicle is stuck in a ditch or snow on or adjacent to a public roadway and appears to be undamaged, and the tow facility has access, it will be winched to the nearest road surface. If your vehicle is unable to proceed under its own power and a tow is required once the winch is performed, you will be responsible for paying the service facility for the winch and the tow.

• DEAD BATTERY? If your battery is dead, jump-start assistance will be dispatched to your location. In the event that your vehicle fails to start, your vehicle will be towed to the nearest Chrysler Retailer (or to the Chrysler Retailer of your choice provided it is within a 35-kilometre distance of the point of breakdown).

• LOCKED OUT? If your keys are locked in your vehicle or your locks are frozen, help will be sent to your location. (Service is limited to providing access to the seating area only and does not include the cost of replacing keys.)

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

• FLAT TIRE? If you have a flat tire, the service facility will remove it

and install your spare tire. The spare tire must be inflated and in sound operating condition. Tire repairs are not covered.

• OUT OF FUEL? If your vehicle runs out of fuel, a small amount of

gasoline will be delivered to your location, where regulations permit. In all other cases, including alternate fuels, your vehicle will be towed to the nearest re-fuelling centre. In these instances, the cost of fuel purchased will be your responsibility.

Please read ⴖAbout Roadside Assistanceⴖ (page 22) because there are some limitations that may affect the service available to you.

O REQUEST ASSISTANCE(SEE ALSO INSIDE FRONT COVER

If your vehicle requires any of the services provided by the program, call this toll-free number anytime, from any location in Canada or the United States: 1-800-363-4869 (this number does not ring at Chrysler Canada). Please identify yourself as a Chrysler vehicle owner and be ready to provide:

❏ Your Vehicle Identification Number ❏ Your licence plate number ❏ Your odometer reading (kilometres) ❏ The location of your vehicle and the phone number where you can

be reached

❏ Type of service needed (tow, flat tire, battery boost, etc.)

)

Note: • In severe weather, some delays may be expected.

• You will have to personally authorize the service provided by the

tow company

• If your vehicle is towed to a retailer, you are responsible for contacting the retailer to authorize the service

OWING AFTER THE PROGRAM EXPIR ES

Coverage under the Roadside Assistance Program expires at 5 years or 100,000 kilometres (or at 3 years or 60,000 kilometres, if applicable),

whichever occurs first. If you call the toll-free number for assistance after the Program expires, you will have to pay for the service provided.

Some emissions coverage lasts longer than the Roadside Assistance Program.* For warranted emission system repairs after the program expires, towing (only) will be provided on a reimbursement basis. Call the toll-free number and service will be dispatched, but you will have to pay for the tow. For reimbursement consideration, see your authorized retailer for further details.

* See page 10.

ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

BOUT ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE

The Chrysler Canada Roadside Assistance Program is not a warranty, but the coverage is concurrent with the Basic and Powertrain Warranties.

Covered service must be provided in Canada or the Continental United States and is limited to plated and insured vehicles that use public roadways.

Service will not be provided free if you have driven into an area that is inaccessible to the service vehicle or is not a regularly travelled and maintained public road (such as beaches, recreational areas, construction sites, open fields, private and seasonal roads). Cross-country, logging, auto cross and any other form of off-road use is not covered.

The program does not cover winching or towing for vehicles that become stuck while plowing snow.

The program does not cover repeat calls for the same problem (if avoidance of the problem is within the control of the driver or owner), or towing from one retailer to another, or service if the driver appears to be under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

The program does not pay for parts, tires, repairs, labour or vehicle storage. Parts, repairs, or labour covered under a vehicle warranty will be provided by your Chrysler Canada Retailer.

The program does not pay for towing required because of an accident.

For example, if a vehicle is winched from a ditch or snowbank and is then determined to need a tow because of damage suffered when it left the road, the tow will not be covered.

The program does not cover any ⬙incidental or consequential damages⬙ connected with the failure of your vehicle or providing services to you. Such damages include lost time, inconvenience, loss of use of your vehicle, rental cars, fuel, telephone, travel or lodging, loss of personal or commercial property, loss of revenue, etc.

All service providers are independent contractors and are not employees or agents of Chrysler Canada. Any loss or damage to your vehicle or personal property resulting from providing roadside service is the responsibility of the roadside service provider (the towing company, for example).

Report any damage or loss to the manager of the service provider and to your own insurance company within 24 hours and before any repairs are performed.
