hudsonc8,
After further research I think you are correct!
I think this might explain paragraph 2.2.F in the online warranty manual for '04 Crossfires. This paragraph describes the transfer of coverage process and transfer fee to the second owner (what I was referring to in my earlier post) for vehicles manufactured ON OR AFTER 10/01/03. The manual really doesn't explain what is done for vehicles built before that date so there must be some difference in coverage for those vehicles though not stated in the particular manual.
Out of curiosity what was the build date of your Crossfire? Mine was built in September of 2003. This made me curious to look at my warranty manual. Sure enough, being an earlier model 04, the Powertrain Warranty manual doesn't mention anything about the transfer procedure, the fee, or any exclusions for 3rd or subsequent owners. This leads me to believe that U.S. market Crossfires built prior to October 2003 have 7/70 Powertrain Warranty coverage that transfers automatically to any subsequent owners with no transfer fees (in similar fashion to the Basic Warranty).
