Chrysler Expands Money-back Guarantee Incentive
DETROIT - Chrysler Group LLC said today it will offer consumers a 60-day, money-back guarantee on new vehicles and also make the first two months of payments for buyers, as it tries to shore up sales amid lackluster consumer confidence, Reuters reported.
The offer expands on Chrysler's Minivan Pledge, a 60-day money back guarantee on the Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan. Chrysler launched the Minivan Pledge in February and it expired July 6. But the two minivans are included in the new program, which covers most Chrysler vehicles.
Chrysler said consumers will be allowed to return a new vehicle within 60 days if they are not happy with the purchase and the company will pay up to $500 per month for the first two months.
In addition, Chrysler will offer interest-free loans for up to sixty months on most 2010 Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram vehicles when financed through GMAC Financial Services for the month of July.
The only vehicles not included in the money-back offer are the Dodge Viper and Jeep Wrangler.
"We build great vehicles for just about any lifestyle and with this pledge, consumers will have the confidence to know they made the right purchase or they can return the vehicle no questions asked," Chrysler U.S. sales chief Fred Diaz said in a statement.
