MAINTENANCE
performance and reliability. The limited warranties in the warranty booklet DO NOT COVER repairs required due to improper maintenance. We strongly suggest you keep track of scheduled maintenance and keep receipts or other documents. Use only recommended Mopart Lubricants and genuine Mopart Parts. In the event that a condition arises between maintenance intervals, please contact your retailer. AVOID PROLONGED PERIODS OF IDLING.
NOTE: WHERE TIME (MONTHS) AND METRAGE ARE INDICATED, FOLLOW THE
INTERVAL THAT OCCURS FIRST.
INTRODUCTION The oil change indicator system will remind you that it istime to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance. Based on engine operation condi­tion the oil change indicator message will illumi­nate, this means that service is required for your vehicle. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 800 km. The oil change indicator message will not monitor the time since the last oil change. Change your vehicles oil if it has been 6 months since your last oil change even if the oil change indicator message is NOT illu­minated. Change your engine oil more often if you drive your vehicle off-road for an extended
Scheduled maintenance must be completed to provide the best vehicle
period of time. Under no circumstances should
oil change intervals exceed 10,000 km or 6 months, whichever comes first. Your dealer
will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the scheduled oil change. If this scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than your dealer the message can be reset by referring to the steps described in the Owner’s Manual.
The performance of all scheduled service work is required to maintain your vehicle in good operat­ing condition. Chrysler Canada Inc. reserves the right to deny warranty coverage if the vehicle has not been properly maintained. While we do not insist that such work be performed by factory authorized retailers, we strongly recommend that an authorized Chrysler, Jeept or Dodge Retailer perform this work.
AT EACH STOP FOR FUEL
Check the engine oil level about 5 minutes after a fully warmed engine is shut off. Check­ing the oil level while the vehicle is on level ground will improve the accuracy of the oil level reading. Add oil only when the level is at or below the ADD or MIN mark.
Check the windshield washer solvent and add if required.
ONCE A MONTH
Check tire pressure and look for unusual wear or damage.
Inspect the battery and clean and tighten the terminals as required.
Check the fluid levels of coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, power steering and transmission and add as needed.
Check all lights and other electrical items for correct operation.
Check and clean wiper blades. Replace if required.
AT EACH OIL CHANGE
Change the engine oil filter.
Inspect the brake hoses and lines.

EMISSION WARRANTIES
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.
Tokeep your vehicle operating properly and in conformance with emission regulations, see the 9Scheduled Maintenance9 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.
10
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 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 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.

OTHER THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
O
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.
A
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.
E
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.

OTHER THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
R
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.
C
ASSETTE TAPES AND CDS
There are some things you should know about cassette tapes and non­commercial CDs. Labels applied to tape cassettes and home-recorded CDs may curl, buckle or peel off. This can result in ejection failure, and repairs required to remove a 9stuck9 CD or cassette are not covered by warranty. In addition, some home-recorded CDs of the CD-R and CD-RW formats may not be compatible with automotive CD players and may skip or produce error messages. If you encounter this, check your CD player by using a commercial CD which is known to be playable. If a CD is not compatible with the player, replacing or servicing the player will not solve the problem.

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.

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.)

OWING AFTER THE PROGRAM EXPIRES
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.
