Any Dodge service people-I have a question

[GotOne]

Have an 02 Ram. The battery died. Pulled it and it said 60 month warranty. Does that mean I get free replacement?

Thanks

No...you'll get the pro rated value.....which won't be very much

Well, I'm not a Dodge service person, but I did sleep at a Holiday Inn Express a while back....

Seriously, I work with warranty quite a bit on Ag Equipment. Usually, there is a 100% replacement period. This typically ranges somewhere between 12 and 36 months depending on what the terms of the warranty are. After that, the warranty is pro-rated based on the in-service time vs. the warranty months of the battery.

In your case, it would seem you've gotten about 4/5th's of the warranty so 1/5 or about 20% is left. The warranty will probably cover roughly 20% of a new battery. The actual calculation will go down to the month. Mine is just a rough example.

Yup, you'll be getting about $16.00 off the price of a new one.

Would have been 18.00 off a new one from the dealer. Needless to say I bought one (better) from a retail store for about 20.00 less than the dealer. Thanks all.

Any of you guys know of a place to deal my 20" wheels and get some decent 17" wheels?
