Ive seen Chrysler bulletins where they list PTU replacement at 2.8 hrs, underbelly stone shield removal / installation at 0.5 hrs and programming at 0.4 hrs but obviously that's skilled workshops..


From what I can make out our failure is electronic within the unit, not mechanical - so I think we might have been able argue for full repair even tho it's out of warranty, but I was so grateful they were co-operating with the part that I just grabbed what was offered...
Why is this out of warranty and not covered.?
