Are there any warranty catches for the Lifetime Powertrain and the Lifetime Bumper-to-Bumper? I've checked out the fine print and all that, but I figured someone herewould have some actual personal experience. I knowmy truckhas to be inspected every 5 years for the powertrain. And the bumper-to-bumper was purchased so I really don't think you can mess that one up, but I'm not sure. I've also been told performance parts will not void anything, as long asthey're not internal motor components. Thanks.

 

Not sure about the inspection thing, but I think that is what I heard from someone else on here. As far as your mods go if the lifetime warranty is a big concern for you, you may want to re-think the superchips programmer. Even if you removethe program the dealer can still see that it was there.

 

From the warranty manual.....

Inspections
In order to maintain the Lifetime Powertrain Limited
Warranty, the person or entity covered by this Powertrain
Limited Warranty must have a powertrain inspection
performed by an authorized Chrysler, Dodge, or
Jeep dealer once very 5 years. This inspection will be
performed at no charge. The inspection must be made
within sixty (60) days of each 5 year anniversary of the
in-service date of the vehicle. You must have the
inspection performed to continue this coverage.
For your convenience, powertrain inspection logs
have been provided. You should use these logs to
keep track of each 5 year powertrain inspection interval.

But your warranties don’t cover any part that was
not on your truck when it left the manufacturing plant
or is not certified for use on your truck. Nor do they
cover the costs of any repairs or adjustments that
might be caused or needed because of the installation
or use of non-Chrysler parts, components,
equipment, materials, or additives.
Performance or racing parts are considered to be
non-Chrysler parts. Repairs or adjustments caused
by their use are not covered under your warranties.
Examples of the types of alterations not covered are:
• installing accessories — except for genuine
Chrysler / MOPAR accessories installed by
an authorized Chrysler, Dodge or Jeep dealer;
• applying rustproofing or other protection
products;• changing the truck's configuration or
dimensions, such as converting the truck into
a limousine or food service truck; or
• using any refrigerant that Chrysler has
not approved.
Your warranties don’t cover the costs of repairing
damage or conditions caused by any of the following:
• fire or accident;
• abuse or negligence;
• misuse — for example, driving over curbs or
overloading;
• tampering with the emission systems, or with
a part that could affect the emission systems;• use of used parts, even if they were originally
supplied by Chrysler (however, authorized
Chrysler / MOPAR remanufactured parts
are covered);
• windshield or rear window damage from external
objects;
• any changes made to your truck that don’t
comply with Chrysler; or
• using any fluid that doesn't meet the minimum
recommendations in your Owner's Manual.
Your warranties can also be restricted by Chrysler.
Chrysler may restrict the warranty on your truck if the
truck is not properly maintained, or if the truck is
abused or neglected, and the abuse or neglect interferes
with the proper functioning of the truck. If the warranty
is restricted, coverage may be denied or subject to
approval by Chrysler before covered repairs are
performed.
As the truck owner, you should also be aware
that Chrysler may deny your warranty
coverage if your truck or a part has failed due
to abuse, neglect, improper maintenance or
unapproved modifications.

 

Thanks. That pretty much clears everything up.
