EMISSION DEFECT WARRANTY / EMISSION PERFORMANCE WARRANTY
WHAT IS NOT COVERED
DAMAGE 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 corro-
sive materials (such as chemicals, acids and fertilizers), misuse (such as
driving over curbs, overloading, spinning wheels, etc.), racing or partici-
pating in a racing event, improper disconnection of components, modifying
the exhaust system, tampering or making adjustments which do not comply
with DaimlerChrysler specifications.
Disconnecting, tampering with or changing the reading of the odometer
will void your warranties.
DAMAGE 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, wind storms, 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.
NORMAL 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
OTHER THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW
OPTIONAL SERVICE CONTRACT
DaimlerChrysler 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.
DaimlerChrysler Canada stands fully behind its service contracts. Be sure
that the contract you buy is a genuine DaimlerChryslerService Contract.
We are notresponsible for other companies’ contracts. See page 26 for
details on available service contracts.
APPEARANCE 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.
PRODUCTION CHANGES
DaimlerChrysler 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.
EXCHANGE PARTS
To reduce the amount of time your vehicle is out of service due to repairs,
DaimlerChrysler may offer exchange service on some parts. Mopar or
Autopar brand exchange parts may be new, remanufactured, recondi-
tioned or repaired, but all meet DaimlerChrysler 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.
