Offer to buy Lifetime extended warranty ends 11/30/18. I bought a new longhorn today (love it). The dealer let me know ram has decided to discontinue the life warranty. Anybody waiting to get one of these needs to act. The other versions are not changing.

are we sure that's not a lie by them to get you to buy it before November fiscal month closes so their numbers look better?

I believe them since I was going to buy one and he reminded me the lifetime one that I was leaning to was expiring. They had just found out.
I got much of my info on buying this truck here. I just thought giving this heads up may help someone who helped me.

Can I buy this warranty, even after I already bought my truck?

There are post from others that indeed the lifetime warranty will end at the end of this month. It could come back in the future, but may be awhile... There are places where you can find discounted rates for these warranties.

Dealer in North Houston states otherwise. I guess we'll see in a couple of days.

Watch. They’ll “discontinue” it for a year. Then bring it back with new and improved price.

You can call this the "Disney movie disc" model. Sell the exact same thing for a few months, "lock it up in the vault", wait a year and release it from the vault at a higher price.

People go nuts for it, go figure.

hmm I wonder how tied together FCA/RAM and Mopar are.... like it is it a 3rd party warranty with RAM marketing all over it? or is it truly backed by FCA?? That'd be interesting to know.

If it was a third party warranty I highly doubt it would show up on the official Mopar website.

No one knows who actually pays the bills when a claim is filed under one of these "Mopar" contracts. It could very well be a 3rd party carrier. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter. It's getting covered.

Same concept with aftermarket contracts. If it's a big established dealer chain selling the contract and they like working with them, who cares. If it's a fly by night used car lot selling something, I'd beware.
