We have an 06' Commander with 12,000 miles on it. owned it a little over a year now. We keep receiving letters in the mail stating that our factory warranty is soon to expire.

And that we really should consider purchasing an extended one for about $800.00

My Sportages that I owned were always 10 years/100,000 miles.

We are a bit confused on this matter. Me and the wife were discussing this today over coffee and breakfast. I said that we should NOT get it. She thinks that we should.



...............Any opinions as to what we should do???


I told her that I would write you guys! <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

Wait a minute, I thought the minimum factory warranty from Chrysler was 3 year 30,000 miles.

We keep getting them also. They are not from Chrysler, but from a third party company. Personally, I wouldn't get it, but your situation may be different.

I think them 3rd party insurence sellers will hound you as long as you own that vehicle.. I know they are still hounding me.
As many letters as I get about auto warranty insurence... it makes me think they are making a LOT of money on selling it.
I never have purchased it.. I think most new vehicles now have a 100K warranty...don't they?
ANY insurence is just a gamble on both party's part. I prefer to take my own chances.
One of my wifes Suburbans had an engine replaced at 10K under factory warranty... I THINK it was a 1990 or so. I purchased her a new one every year around that time.
Modern vehicles sure seem to last a loooong time don't they?

Only owned it a year and only 12,000 miles? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/zombie.gif" alt="" /> Most remanned engines have a warranty at least that long. It's hard to believe that your warranty is almost expired.

Did you buy it new?

yes of course----brand new!

yep we are getting those as well, ignore themm and toss them in file 13 like I do. The first one we got i almost split a side because it was to me. I asked my wife "Honey did you know the factory warrenty ran out on my jeep"(89 xj for the record)We got a really good laugh out of that.then she received one and we laughed again because we bought the extended warrenty.If anything they are good for a laugh. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I got one from the dealer where I bought my Rubicon, it said for only $4000 I could by a lifetime warrenty on the engine and drive train. Only $4000.

I recently purchased a 07 wrangler and the lowest warranty available was the 3year 36k. i asked for the lowest warranty because i am going to void it anyway.
i was told that is jeeps standard warranty.

You are correct sir!

We will void our warrenty also <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

I like the part where Big Jim says, "Don't those American warrenties seem to last a long time?"

Or something to that affect....... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
