60 day trade-in: Chrysler starts the minivan pledge
People who trade in a competitive product for a 2010 Chrysler Town & Country or Dodge Grand Caravan minivan can drive the vehicle ‘risk-free’ for 60 days, giving competitive owners the peace of mind to ‘try us again,’ according to a Chrysler release today.
“The Dodge Grand Caravan and Chrysler Town & Country have been purchased by more customers than any other minivan, and we want new buyers to see why,” said Fred Diaz, President and Chief Executive Officer–Ram Brand and Lead Executive for the Sales Organization, Chrysler Group LLC. “Roughly 67% of our minivan buyers are previous owners, and the Chrysler Town & Country has won the R.L. Polk Owner Loyalty award in the minivan category nine years in a row. That’s a testimonial that is earned by building the best minivan year in and year out.”
Through March 31, people who trade in a competitive vehicle qualify for the “Minivan Pledge.” If a customer isn’t completely happy with the purchase of their 2010 minivan, they can return the vehicle to the selling dealer, no questions asked. (See a local dealer for full program rules).
Diaz said, “Once a customer buys a Chrysler Town & Country or Dodge Grand Caravan minivan, they love it. The ‘Minivan Pledge’ gives consumers peace of mind to know they purchased the best minivan for their families.”
The 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan SE starts at $23,995, including destination. The Chrysler Town & Country LX starts at $26,745.
