Extended Care Premium vs. Extended Care Plus: Which Mopar Protection Plan is Right for You?

Extended Care Premium vs. Extended Care Plus: Which Mopar Protection Plan is Right for You?

When it comes to protecting your Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, or Fiat vehicle, Mopar now offers two powerful extended warranty options: Extended Care Premium and Extended Care Plus. Both plans provide excellent coverage and peace of mind, but which one is the best fit for your needs? Let’s break down the key differences to help you make a confident decision.

What is Mopar Extended Care Premium?

Formerly known as Maximum Care, Mopar Extended Care Premium is the most comprehensive coverage available. It protects over 5,000 components on your vehicle — essentially extending your factory bumper-to-bumper warranty — aside from routine maintenance and a few wear-and-tear parts.

Highlights of Extended Care Premium:

• Covers major systems like the engine, transmission, driveline, steering, brakes, suspension, air conditioning, and more

• Includes coverage for advanced technology like infotainment systems, power accessories, and driver-assist features

• Available for new and certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles

• Terms available up to 8 years/125,000 miles

If you're looking for the highest level of factory-backed protection, Extended Care Premium is the way to go.

What is Mopar Extended Care Plus?

Previously called Added Care Plus, Mopar Extended Care Plus focuses on covering the most critical and expensive-to-repair components of your vehicle. It protects over 850 essential parts, offering strong coverage at a more affordable price point.

Highlights of Extended Care Plus:

• Covers vital systems like the engine, transmission, driveline, steering, and selected electrical components

• Does not cover many luxury or high-tech features included in Extended Care Premium

• Great for customers wanting strong protection on a tighter budget

• Terms available up to 8 years/150,000 miles

If you mainly want to protect against major mechanical failures without paying for full "bumper-to-bumper" coverage, Extended Care Plus is an excellent choice.
