So does this mean when I finally get around to adding the FACTORY fender
flares and mud flaps to my wife's truck our service contract will be void as
well?? If I take "any vehicle altered from original manufacturer
specifications" literally, it appears they could legitimately void it since
they aren't "original" equipment on our year and model. (Not that it's
going to stop me.) Jeeesh!!!
On another note - since your contract was prematurely cancelled, do you get
any of the money you paid in back? What does the fine print say about that?
I'm sure it's probably to their advantage.

So how does a body lift affect the water pump?

Well, I spoke to the FTC. I'm screwed. I was right, according
to the guy I spoke to; because of the single line in the service
contract that says, "any vehicle altered from original
manufacturer specifications" is "ineligible" for a service
contract they can legitimately cancel my contract. What a crock.
I know a lot of people wrote back and said they were able to
work some magic with their dealers and I appreciate the input.
In this case, I have no pull with the dealer; I just moved here
and they don't see me a vaulued customer. And the service
contract people at Chrysler are no better. I guess I just
picked the wrong dealer to go to; in Vegas, the dealer I went to
just fixed whatever needed to be fixed. This guy here at this
little podunk dealership instantly called up Chysler and had an
inspector sent. Where's the love? Oh well, I've got some time
next week . . . on to Project: Water pump (and more). Thanks
for the support.
