Customer responsibilites if vehicle is returned: Payment of title, tax, and doc fees, payment of a restocking fee of 5% of MSRP, plus $.50 per mile driven, must return the vehicle to the selling dealer in good, undamaged and like new condition within 30 days of delivery, only one return of a vehicle is allowed per customer. Program expires July 31. 2006. "



So, you can simply return the car to the dealer (if it's a retail purchase, not a lease, and you haven't put on any parts which aren't Mopar) by paying



5% of the MSRP (on a $30k car, that's only $1500) pay the tax (which in California would be close to 8%, or $2400), pay the license (about $600-900 in California) and 50c per mile driven (if you've driven 900 miles in 3 1/2 weeks, that would be $450). Plus the $50 or so doc fee.

Thus, if you didn't like your car, it would cost you



$1500 restocking fee $2400 tax $ 600 (at least) registration $ 450 mileage driven $ 50 document fee ~~~~~~~~~ $ 5000. total



And remember, there can't have been a trade in, and you had to finance the car through Chrysler Financial.



Is this a good deal or what? Maybe it IS worth it to get out from under a Chrysler deal.


This is why it's important to use only Mopar brand plastic explosive.
