remains registered in the United States:

Ram dealer. They should give you the same warranty service you receive
in the United States.
• If the authorized dealership charges you for repairs which you feel should be covered under your warranty, please get a detailed receipt for the work
done. Make sure that this receipt lists all warranty repairs and parts that
were involved. This receipt will be similar to the one used by the autho -
rized dealer who normally services your vehicle.
• When your vehicle returns to the United States, contact the FCA US LLC Customer Assistance Center in “section 7.2” for reimbursement consid -
eration. You will normally need to provide a copy of the receipt, your
vehicle registration and any other relevant documents.
