3/60 Basic Warranty; 5/100 Powertrain Warranty - Jeep Wrangler 2012 Maintenance & Service Manual

T
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 10).
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 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
• 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.
