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 factory-installed part of your vehicle except tires for 3 years or
60,000 kilometres, whichever occurs first. The following items are
exceptions; they are only covered (if defective) for 1 year or 20,000
kilometres, whichever occurs first:
light bulbs and fuses

Tires are warranted by the tire manu facturers, not by
DaimlerChrysler. For details, see the tire manu fac t urer’s warranty
booklet in your glovebox. Your DaimlerChrysler 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.
Your Koss headphones are warranted by the manufacturer,
not by DaimlerChrysler. For details, see the Koss manufacturer’s
warranty card in your glovebox.
