2006 Dodge engine warranty --- broke AGAIN

[MAshley]

So this begs the Q did you pay for the first fix on a Visa ? ... .....

 

[JonathanBurk]

Yes, I did actually pay with a VISA. Why?

 

[JRG]

I don't know the legality but, Dispute the charge and take your money and truck elsewhere, AND/OR fight the cancelled warranty as Tomey said.

 

[amsoilman]

If you have NOT received a letter from DC, your warranty is NOT void! Warranties can ONLY be void by the MANUFACTURER!, and it has to be done in writing! This is the LAW, and DC knows that! Someone is playing games with you.

You DO need to contact a lawyer, and get this straightened out.

JB,



I don't know about the car business, but in the powersports business your second injector would be covered under a "Parts Warranty". They may not want to pay for your labor but they should at least replace the part. Good luck to you, you got the short end of the stick on this one in my opinion.

Because if you paid with a VISA etc..... You can call them and Dispute the charge saying it was not installed correctly etc.

 

[Sandyneck]

I second the advice to dispute the VISA charge. You will not have pay the VISA charge until an investigation by your issuing bank has been completed and the dealer will have to provide all paperwork, implied warranties, reasons for not fixing a 2 day old repair... etc. In the meantime contact a lawyer. Good Luck. Be sure to go after DC for legal fees as well!

Wrong, they can restrict the whole warranty if they want & no you won't get a letter! DC has done this to many of us.

Here is a Quote from the Magnuson-Moss Warranty act of 1975.



In order to disclaim implied warranties, you must inform consumers in a conspicuous manner, and generally in writing, that you will not be responsible if the product malfunctions or is defective.

The Law



Federal law sets forth requirements for warranties and contains a number of provisions to prevent vehicle manufacturers, dealers and others from unjustly denying warranty coverage. With regard to aftermarket parts, the spirit of the law is that warranty coverage cannot be denied simply because such parts are present on the vehicle, or have been used (see Attachment A). The warranty coverage can be denied only if the aftermarket part caused the malfunction or damage for which warranty coverage is sought. Disputes in this area usually boil down to arguments over facts and technical opinions, rather than arguments over interpretations of the law.

Amsoilman, I agree with you & the info you have. It boils down to how much time and money you have! DC and the owner (of the dealership) said do what you have to do with the info that I have.
