BELTS not covered in chrysler plan?

Does the chrysler max care plan cover all the belts? I've read some stories about belts being shreded on the e55s.
Thx.

Belts are considered wear items and would not normally be covered, unless you can show that a defect caused it. About the only causes we get around here are mods, so no Chrysler SHOULDN'T pay for your play.

Agree, belts are should not be covered. Get a good quality belt, install it correctly, and make sure the pulleys, idlers, and tensioner are in good shape. Poorly made crank pulleys also contribute to this.
I always keep xtra belts in the car.

Brake pads, rotors, Fluids, Light bulbs, Belts, *tire sensors etc. are never covered under warranty. Some manufacturers offer maintenance agreements that cover some of the items above for a period of time.

*Some companies will cover.

Warranties (including manufacturer's warranty) usually don't cover wear and tear items. You maybe able to get them covered under a maintenance plan, but warranties generally won't cover them. It's good that you keep an eye on the belts because when damaged, they can do serious harm.
