Tiger or Kitty In Tank

Just dropped truck off at dealer for new lp hope did right thing couldn't afford price of after market right now so the $100 deductible seems cheap right now. Since it's going to take $160 to fill it up. Hope I can see a little increase in mileage along with the peace of mind that I want be left on side of road.

Were you able to drive it to the dealer or had it failed totally (I am keeping my fingers crossed on mine).

Call service manager or Dodge.1-800-992-1997. The POWERTRAIN warranty is a $100 deduct.The FUEL SYSTEM AND CUMMINS ENGINE is a 0 until years 5 and 6.Get your money back if your truck falls into that date.My intank pump cost me 0 last week.

Also has to be under 70k miles. If it is, fight for the $100 bucks. I had to for my turbo. They will act like they dont know what you are talking about but like Hounddog said, it is part of the seperate Dodge Cummins engine warranty, not the Dodge powertrain warranty. Its hard to see but it should be in your warranty book.

Pardon but 70 thousand miles is not the start of the deductable.Its YEARS.Years 6,7 has a $100 deduct on engine and fuel system.Dosen't matter if its got 99,999 if its 4 years old its no deductable on engine and fuel system.

Weird, since Hounddog also has an 03 I know you are probably correct but my 03 warranty book says 7 years or 70k miles. Have to re-read it again. I do know I Dodged the 100 deductable on my Turbo. Sigh,,, I get so confused!

7/70 is POWERTRAIN.trans/diffs/u joints etc. 7/100 is the engine and fuel system.Your not the only one whio gets confused thats why so many folks get charged a deductable on injectors/TURBOS etc.

Is the 7 year/100,000 mile transferable to unlimited owners or just the first 2 or 3?
