JEEP BUYERS BEWARE: This dealership will deny the - spwatmough
JEEP BUYERS BEWARE: This dealership will deny the warranty you’re entitled to. I have bought brand new Jeeps for the last 21 years, and I will NOT be purchasing Jeep in the future. I would advise you to choose a vehicle brand that is NOT FIAT (Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge) to save you from the nightmare that the Jeep and other Fiat brands will cause you! They misdiagnosed my Jeep Gladiator problem, blaming it on pinion bearings that would not be covered by warranty due to modifications causing wear and tear on the part. I took it to a different mechanic shop, and they informed me that the pinion bearings are completely fine and not damaged at all. The true problem is the back side gears (a known and VERY common problem in Jeep Wranglers & Gladiators). Side gears would NOT be affected by the modifications, and, according to the owners manual: "Modifications do not void warranty unless they cause damage to the part needing replacement." It seems like quite the scam for the Jeep service department to be ‘misdiagnosing’ a problem not covered by warranty, and not reporting/admitting the true problem, which would be covered by warranty. They are also the only major car dealership in Canada to withdraw from CAMVAP, which is a company that helps mitigate warranty issues. Steer clear of the Jeep and Fiat brands if you want to save yourself stress when it comes time to collect on warranty!!
