Chrysler in Canada today means minivans: the Pacifica, the Pacifica Hybrid plug-in and, since 2021, the Grand Caravan name on the Pacifica's platform. Add the 300 sedans still on the road and you have a brand whose owners drive families around a great deal and keep the vehicle a long time — a combination that produces high kilometres and a strong interest in what happens after year five.
Below: what Stellantis covers on a Chrysler in Canada, when that coverage ends, how Mopar Vehicle Protection compares with an independent plan, the repairs that show up most on the minivans, and what covering a Chrysler costs.
What does the Chrysler factory warranty cover in Canada?
These are Chrysler's Canadian terms — Canadian kilometres, not American miles, which is where most online confusion about "chrysler warranty" comes from.
| Coverage | Term | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Basic Warranty | 3 years / 60,000 km | Whichever comes first. |
| Powertrain Warranty | 5 years / 100,000 km | Fully transferable, $0 deductible. |
| Rust-through (perforation) | 5 years / 160,000 km | All body sheet metal. |
| Roadside assistance | 5 years / 100,000 km | 24-hour, with the powertrain warranty. |

Please check these terms against your own owner's manual. We do our best to keep Chrysler's Canadian terms current and correct, but manufacturers revise them, coverage differs by model year and trim, and errors can happen. The warranty booklet or owner's manual that came with your vehicle is what governs your coverage, not this page — please confirm anything here against it (or with your Chrysler dealer) before you rely on it.
When does the Chrysler factory warranty actually run out?
Minivans rack up kilometres. At 25,000 km a year — common for a family vehicle — the Basic Warranty is gone at two years and five months and the powertrain warranty at four years. The Pacifica Hybrid's battery coverage runs longer than that — Stellantis Canada publishes two different terms for it and we are confirming which applies, so ask your dealer for the figure on your VIN. Either way, the rest of the hybrid system and the whole of the van's electronics and sliding-door hardware are only covered for the first three years.

Mopar Vehicle Protection is Stellantis' extended service contract for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram and Fiat, sold through dealers in tiers (Maximum Care, Added Care Plus, Powertrain Care) with repairs at Stellantis dealers in Canada and the United States. It is bought while the factory warranty is in force and is a reasonable choice for a new Pacifica. For a used van, one past the factory warranty, or an owner who wants an independent shop to do the work, an independent plan is worth pricing alongside it.
| Mopar Vehicle Protection | Independent plan through Auto Warranty Experts | |
|---|---|---|
| Who sells it | Chrysler dealers | Us — several insurer-backed Canadian programs, compared in one written quote |
| Where repairs are done | Chrysler dealers | Any licensed repair facility in Canada — including a Chrysler dealer, if you prefer |
| When you can buy it | Usually while the factory warranty is still in force | Any time — new, used, or years after the factory warranty ended (a short inspection applies then) |
| How it's priced | Set by the selling dealer | Rated by vehicle class, mileage, term and tier; quoted plus tax, held for seven days |
| Who pays the shop | Chrysler | The claims administrator, directly, on most plans |
| Transferable if you sell | Usually, with conditions | Yes, on the programs we quote |
Both are legitimate. The right one depends on whether you bought new or used, where you want the work done, and whether the dealer's price is competitive — which is exactly what a second written quote tells you.
What tends to be expensive to fix on a Chrysler?
These are the repairs Chrysler owners most often ask us about once the factory coverage has ended. They are common enough to plan for, not inevitable, and the costs are typical Canadian ranges for parts and labour — your shop and your region will vary.
| Repair | What owners run into | Typical cost |
|---|---|---|
| Nine-speed automatic (948TE) transmission | Shift-quality complaints and valve-body or full-unit repairs on the Pacifica's nine-speed at higher kilometres. | ≈ $3,000–$6,500 |
| Pacifica Hybrid ancillaries | Outside the factory battery coverage, the onboard charger, inverter cooling and hybrid control electronics are premium-priced repairs; some Pacifica Hybrid issues have been handled under recall, which is free — check the VIN. | ≈ $2,000–$6,000 |
| Power sliding doors, liftgate and A/C system | Sliding-door motors and cables, power liftgate struts and motors, and rear A/C components are the everyday four-figure repairs of minivan ownership. | ≈ $800–$2,500 |
| Pentastar 3.6 oil filter housing, Uconnect and body electronics | The plastic oil-filter/cooler housing leak is very common on 2014–2019 3.6 engines; Uconnect screens and body-control modules make up the rest of the non-mechanical claims. | ≈ $800–$2,500 |
Safety recalls are repaired free by Chrysler regardless of warranty status and are not listed here. Pre-existing conditions — a fault that already exists when coverage is bought — are excluded on every extended-warranty program, which is why coverage is arranged before symptoms appear.
What does a Chrysler extended warranty cost in Canada?
Programs price vehicles by class, and Chrysler rates in class 1 of four — the lowest-priced group. These are current example prices for a Chrysler in that class, rounded, one-time purchase plus tax:
| Coverage | 3 years / 60,000 km of driving | 5 years / 100,000 km of driving |
|---|---|---|
| Comprehensive — named-component coverage, $5,000 per visit | ≈ $1,650 | ≈ $2,300 |
| Exclusionary — everything not on the exclusion list, $6,000 per visit | ≈ $2,200 | ≈ $2,750 |
Rate card effective February 1, 2026. All prices plus tax, with a flat $100 deductible per repair visit. Exclusionary coverage is available on vehicles up to 7 model years old and under 140,000 km at enrolment. Factory-turbocharged engines add $45 and diesels $75; a doubled kilometre allowance is $150. Not sold in Quebec. Your quote is for your vehicle — these show the shape of the market, not your price. Comprehensive or exclusionary — which one makes sense? NOTE: make-page prices are generated from functions/data/ratecard.js at build time — nothing to update by hand when the card changes; re-check the wording if the program structure changes
Which Chrysler models do we quote?
Any Chrysler that meets the program's age and kilometre limits qualifies. The ones we quote most: Pacifica, Pacifica Hybrid (plug-in), Grand Caravan (2021 and newer), 300 (to 2023). Trims and powertrains matter for price, so we confirm the exact vehicle before quoting — a VIN gets you there fastest.
Common questions about Chrysler extended warranties
Does an extended warranty cover the Pacifica Hybrid?
Yes. Plug-in hybrids are eligible for mechanical coverage on the programs we quote; high-voltage battery coverage varies by program, and Stellantis' own Canadian pages currently disagree on the factory battery term — we confirm it with the dealer before quoting. We tell you plainly which components are covered before you buy.
What is Mopar Vehicle Protection?
Stellantis' own extended service contract for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram and Fiat vehicles, sold through dealers in tiers such as Maximum Care and Added Care Plus, honoured at Stellantis dealers in Canada and the United States, and generally purchased while the factory warranty is still in force.
How much does a Chrysler extended warranty cost in Canada?
Chrysler rates in our lowest price class: about $1,650 for three years of comprehensive coverage up to $2,750 for five years of exclusionary coverage, plus tax. Mileage and the exact model set the final number; plug-in hybrids are quoted individually.
