Thanks for all the replies.

I am definitely the second "in use" owner and that fact has been confirmed by both the dealer and the Chrysler rep that I spoke with. That's why I'm so annoyed with Chrysler right now. If the warranty is 3/36 and there is no 7/70, why is it printed in both the SRT6 specific owners manual and the SRT6 specific warranty manual for the 2005 model year?

If the requirement was that the original owner purchased the additional coverage, the wording in the warranty manual should state that fact, but if you read my original post, it simply states that "You are covered by the Powertrain Limited Warranty if you are the first purchaser for use of the vehicle".

And even worse, if they truly were going to offer it (so far as printing it in the manuals) and then changed it, there should be a clear addendum available for the warranty manual that states the coverage was changed and no 7/70 is available. I can find no records or documentation of this sort for the 2005 SRT6. Everything I find specifically states transferable 7/70 powertrain warranty. I even found old ad campaigns and auto magazine articles talking about Chrysler's 7/70 transferable powertrain warranty.

I have been buying new and pre-owned Chrysler vehicles for 20 years and have never had any issues with warranties. What was printed in the manual is what I got - ALWAYS. I guess since American car companies are basically backed by the Government, that they can now act like the Government and change the rules as they go.
