Trouble is, if you're driving a '99, chances are pretty good you're past
the original 3/36 warranty, unless you managed to find an unsold Dak at
a "end of model year" firesale in the fall of '99. After that, whether
you get it covered will be dependent upon your extended warranty/service
contract (if any).
