MVP Lifetime Max Care Warranty no longer offered after November 30, 2018

[Hyper]

Couple of the online sellers are saying that today is the last day to buy. Didn’t see anything on Jeep site but I can’t access copies of any of my service contracts, say Site is being maintained...
We shall see!

This will cost FCA many vehicle purchases. By many, I mean five, the five that would be going into my driveway (within the next four or so years). Dang. I hate to switch to Ford or Toyota.

I agree buyers like you and me.
But car companies hate people like us (people whom keep cars a long time) They make lots more money on the people leasing or buying every 3-4 years.

I called up Hayes Jeep last night, Melissa answered and as soon as I asked for Tom she knew what I needed. She had me taken care of in just a few minutes. She also confirmed that they have been told to have all of their orders in by midnight tonight. No more Lifetime sales starting 12/01.

Thanks to Kogar for starting this thread, and everyone that contributed. I had been meaning to get the Lifetime warranty but just hadn't got around to it yet. I read through this yesterday and got it in time.

I talked to Tom this morning. If you’ve been thinking about an extended warranty, he’s the man to talk to. Very professional...no BS...very personable and a pleasure to do business with!

Good luck with Tom. Hopefully, he will be able to sort it out for you.

I spoke to Tom and my dealer today and confirmed its ending today and my order (October 13th) isn't far enough along to be able to purchase the lifetime plan. This is very disappointing as that was one of the big selling points to me in getting this vehicle. I like to keep my vehicles as long as possible and I planned on doing the same with this Wrangler. Having the lifetime warranty would have given me some peace of mind with all the new electronics that are in there now.

@lukow, I'm in the same boat. Just talked to Tom and they can't find my vehicle in the system yet (even though I have a VIN). Damn!

Wait, so no more Lifetime even on new vehicles? I was going to trade in my 2015 JKU for a Gladiator when it comes out but I ordered the lifetime warranty through Tom in July. I think Ill keep the wrangler for ever if I can't order a lifetime warranty on the Gladiator!!

Part of me didn't want an extended warranty, I know traditionally they make money for the seller . Turns out my Jeep was delivered to my dealer tonight (11/30), and I can't pick it up until Monday. So I figured I would miss the opportunity for it, its a non-issue, out of my hands, can't do anything about it. Then my dealer called me and offered it, said today was the last day for it. I asked if I needed to come in (30 minutes away), but she said she could still process it and I'll be fine for Monday, so I decided to go for it. I didn't get a chance to cross shop with someone else, but I decided to do it anyway. I think I also got paranoid about electronics possibly going bad down the road.

That’s good news. What did you pay? It appears the discounted rate is about $3,000.

Just looked at website today. It appears there are two plans.

1. Maximum Care (5000+ components)
2. Added Care Plus (800+ components)

Terms are up to 8 years or 125k miles. No lifetime listed. So maybe it is gone.

It looks like they removed the links to download the brochures also.

I paid $3300, so not great, but not bad either. Like I said, I couldn't really comparison shop due to the timing, but I didn't feel like it was too far off from what others have paid. The most miles I have put on a car was 174k, an Acura TSX (2006 maybe). When I traded that in I had no issues, had only done regular maintenance on it, but wasn't sure how much longer I could go with it. I traded that in towards a 2013 Audi A6, which I got rid of after 65k miles because it had several minor issues, and no warranty.
