Larry, The basic limited warranty begins on either of the folling dates, which is earlier: the date you take delivery of the vehicle;or the date when the vehicle was first put into service, for example, as a dealer "demo" or as a diamler chrysler corporation company vehical. I was in the same position when i bought my new 2001 RT the Dealer told me i was not covered under the 7 year 100.000 warranty this car was bought july 1 2001. the only way you will find out for sure is to call DAIMLER CHRYSLER MOTORS CORPORATION NATIONAL CUSTOMER RELATIONS AT (800)992-1997. GIVE THEM THE VIN # AND THEY TELL YOU EVERY THING YOU KNEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOUR WARRANTY. THE ****
