Default How to get loyalty discount

Hi all,

The dealers have been telling me that you have to be on a list with chrysler to get the loyalty discount, and apparently I'm not on it. Who should I call to see about getting put on it? I have a pretty good leg to stand on when it comes to justifying why I should be on it. I have bought the following new vehicles myself:

2004 neon srt-4 (totalled by a falling tree in hurricane Ivan)
2004 2500 diesel
2004 3500 dually diesel
2005 magnum rt
2006 2500 diesel
2006 3500 SRW diesel

Surely THAT has got to be enough for them to come off it!

I don't think you can have them put you on the list. I think people (current Chrysler vehicle owners) are randomly selected for the incentive. I wasn't on it either and my past 4 vehicles have been Chrysler products, so I doubt that matters unfortunately.

Well, I think I'll call them and complain anyway. If they're gonna have a customer loyalty discount it ought to have some connection to customer loyalty. If not, then call it "a random drawing of people who have bought from us in recent history" discount. It may seem like I'm making something out of nothing, but when you've bought as many vehicles from them as I have and you don't get offered the discount while people who only bought one do, it's a slap in the face.

I received the loyalty discount by showing the dealer the current registration for my 03 Dakota. I know I wasn't on a list.

Well, I got hold of a number to call, and they told me that the loyalty discount ended as of yesterday. That agrees with what my dealer told me, which is that he was waiting to hear what the new incentives were going to be today. It still pisses me off that they selected loyalty discount customers apparently at random.

69 dodge dart (slant six)
71 chrysler lebaron (318 2bbl)
79 1/2 ton truck (440, 4bbl)
80 1/2 ton truck (318 4bbl)
83 ramcharger (318 4bbl)
90 dakota (v6)

Oh, mine was just the stuff I've bought new recently. The full list would be something like this:

1966 dodge monaco
1967 plymouth fury
1964 imperial
1966 town and country wagon
1967 valiant
1968 2 door valiant
1969 chrysler 300
1970 valiant
1971 chrysler newport
1972 duster
1973 duster
1974 duster
1974 360 duster
1975 dart sport
1976 4 door dart
1977 fury wagon
1986 ramcharger
1996 2500
1997 2500
1998 dually
2004 srt-4
2004 2500
2004 3500
2005 magnum
2006 2500
2006 2500
1973 charger
1976 fury
1976 feather duster
1970 sport fury
1974 challenger
1973 challenger


I've probably missed a few, but this is a mostly-inclusive list of mopars I've owned at one point or another.

Edit:
1973 imperial
1978 d100
1973 1 ton maxivan
1974 w100 power wagon
1974 duster with a 440
1973? duster parts car, exact year unknown
1972 new yorker
1978 cordoba

I think that's finally it, for the mopars. There's a bunch more of other brands.

i got the loyalty discount when i traded my 99 ram for my 09. the sales manager told me that they only used to do it for leases but they dont do leases anymore so they give it to you for trades now.( i got my truck on jan 14th) they may have stopped it now though.

v8440, not that's a list. I did forget the 87 ramcharger but no where close to what you've had. I'm thinking maybe chrysler needs to go back to the dictionary and check out the meaning of loyalty again. Can't tell you how many times I was made fun of because Dodge was always considered to the little ole lady car, or the old mans truck. Unless of course you were lucky enough to get one of the muscle cars. I actually was on the verge of changing brands when Iacoca took over. It was because of him that I stuck with dodge. Well, him and my dad. My dad would only drive chrysler or dodge vehicles. Jeff.
