Comprehensive Guide to RAM Warranty Coverage and Extended Protection Plans

two 2025 RAM trucks

RAM trucks are built for demanding work and rugged performance, and they come with comprehensive warranty coverage designed to protect your investment. This information is based on official RAM and Mopar (the official service, parts, and customer care brand for RAM and other Stellantis vehicles) sources.

RAM's Standard Warranty Coverage

New RAM trucks are backed by several factory warranties, providing protection against defects in materials or workmanship:

Basic Limited Warranty (Bumper-to-Bumper) Covers most parts of your RAM truck, including the body, electronics, and accessories for 3 years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. It also includes towing for covered repairs.

Powertrain Limited Warranty Covers the engine, transmission, and drivetrain components that keep your truck moving.

  • Gas engines: Covered for 5 years or 60,000 miles
  • Diesel engines (like Cummins): Extended to 5 years or 100,000 miles

This warranty is transferable, which means if you sell the truck within the warranty period, the new owner stays protected.

Rust-Through Warranty (Anti-Corrosion) Covers holes caused by rust due to manufacturing issues (not from chips or dings).

  • Outer panels: Covered for 5 years, unlimited miles
  • Other panels: Covered for 3 years or 36,000 miles

Federal Emissions Warranty

Keeps your RAM compliant with emissions laws:

  • Basic emissions parts: Covered for 2 years or 24,000 miles
  • Major parts (like the catalytic converter and oxygen sensors): Covered for 8 years or 80,000 miles

Noise Emission Warranty (for heavy-duty trucks): Some RAM HD models include lifetime coverage for specific noise-related components.

For the most precise details specific to your RAM truck's model year and configuration, it is highly recommended to consult your owner's manual or the Mopar Owners Site.

RAM Roadside Assistance

RAM enhances the ownership experience with 24/7 Roadside Assistance. For most RAM vehicles, this service is included for 5 years or 60,000 miles on the odometer, whichever comes first, calculated from the start date of the Basic Limited Warranty.

Services typically include:

  • Towing to the closest authorized RAM dealership
  • Flat tire help (using your spare tire)
  • Jump-start for a dead battery
  • Fuel delivery (up to 2 gallons, up to 2 times per year)
  • Lockout assistance if your keys are stuck inside
  • Winching if you're stuck within 10 feet of a public road

RAM Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle (CPOV) Warranty

RAM offers a robust Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle (CPOV) ProgRAM for used trucks that meet specific requirements and pass a stringent 125-point inspection. CPOV warranty benefits provide enhanced peace of mind for buyers of pre-owned RAM models:

  • Must be within 5 model years
  • Must have fewer than 75,000 miles

CPO Warranty Coverage Includes:

  • 7-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Warranty From the truck's original sale date. Covers engines, transmissions and drivetrain. Deductible may apply per visit.

  • 24/7 Roadside Help (typically up to $100 per incident)
  • Rental Car Coverage (up to $35/day, $175 max) if your CPO truck needs overnight repair

Mopar Vehicle Protection Extended Service Plans (ESPs)

Mopar Vehicle Protection plans offer extended coverage options for RAM owners beyond the factory warranty. These plans are factory-backed by Stellantis (the parent company of RAM)  and are honored at any authorized RAM, Chrysler, Dodge, or Jeep dealership across North America, ensuring certified technicians using genuine Mopar parts perform repairs.

Key Mopar Vehicle Protection plans for RAM trucks include:

  • Maximum Care: This is the most comprehensive exclusionary coverage, protecting over 5,000 components beyond the factory warranty. It covers virtually all mechanical and electrical parts and systems, similar to a bumper-to-bumper warranty. Terms are available with various time and mileage options, often up to 8 years or 125,000 miles, with some Lifetime options also available (though these are typically non-transferable except in specific states like Florida and North Carolina).
  • Added Care Plus: Offers extensive component coverage for over 850 major components, including systems like the engine, transmission, drive axle, steering, brakes, air conditioning, instrumentation, and more. Term options are available, such as up to 8 years or 150,000 miles.
  • Powertrain Care: Focuses on protecting the most vital powertrain components: engine, transmission, and drive axle assembly.

Benefits of Mopar Vehicle Protection Plans:

  • Factory-Backed Coverage: Ensures the quality of repairs and use of genuine Mopar parts.
  • Flexible Options: A wide range of agreement lengths and mileage limits are available to suit individual needs and driving habits.
  • Deductible Options: Choose from various deductible amounts (e.g., $0, $100, $200). A "Disappearing Deductible" option may also be available, which waives the deductible if repairs are performed at the selling dealership.
  • 100% Transferable: Most plans are fully transferable to subsequent owners, which can significantly enhance your RAM's resale value.
  • Rental Vehicle Benefits: Provides car rental allowance (e.g., up to $35 per day, $175 maximum per occurrence) when your vehicle is kept overnight for a covered repair.
  • 24-Hour Roadside Assistance: Included with all plans.
  • Trip Interruption Coverage: If a covered component failure occurs more than 100 miles from home, the plan may cover lodging, meals, and car rental expenses (typically up to $1,000).
  • Key Fob Repair/Replacement: Some plans may offer coverage for key fob repairs or replacements.
  • Interest-Free Financing: Flexible payment options are often available for purchasing plans.
