10-Year/160,000 km: Ram Sets New Warranty Standard for Canadian Trucks

 r m026 097 f n

When you buy a truck, the investment usually lasts much longer than the typical loan period. Ram understands this reality and has responded with Canada's best full-size truck limited powertrain warranty - a comprehensive 10-year/160,000-kilometre coverage that reflects the brand's confidence in long-term quality and durability.

This warranty applies to all 2026 Ram 1500, Ram 2500, Ram 3500, Ram Chassis Cab, and Ram ProMaster vans sold in Canada (excluding full battery-electric vehicles). The coverage protects core mechanical components throughout your ownership experience.

What's Covered Under the 10-Year/160,000 km Warranty

The new limited powertrain warranty covers the core mechanical components that keep your Ram truck running strong. This includes the engine, transmission, transfer case, driveshafts, differentials, and axles for the full 10-year/160,000-kilometre period, whichever comes first.

The warranty is available exclusively to customers who purchase or lease new and previously unregistered 2026 Ram vehicles from an authorized Ram dealership in Canada. It applies to the original retail purchaser or lessee and is non-transferable, except where required by applicable law.

This coverage includes retail purchases and leases to both individuals and businesses, though fleet purchases are excluded from this particular warranty program.

Why Ram Extended the Warranty

The automotive landscape has changed significantly in recent years. With nearly 80% of new truck loans now exceeding five years, buyers are financing their purchases for longer periods than ever before. Ram recognized that traditional warranty coverage wasn't keeping pace with how customers actually use and finance their vehicles.

By extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years or 160,000 kilometres, Ram ensures that your truck is protected throughout the majority - or even the entirety - of your loan term. This alignment between warranty coverage and real-world financing practices demonstrates Ram's focus on standing behind its vehicles for the long haul.

Additional Warranty Coverage

Beyond the industry-leading powertrain warranty, 2026 Ram trucks come with comprehensive coverage across multiple areas:

  • Basic Warranty: 36 months/60,000 kilometres
  • Corrosion Perforation: 60 months/160,000 kilometres
  • Roadside Assistance: 60 months/100,000 kilometres

The roadside assistance program provides valuable support when you need it most, ensuring help is available throughout a considerable portion of your ownership experience.

Fleet and Cross-Border Benefits

Ram has also expanded warranty coverage for specific customer segments. Canadian fleet customers now benefit from a new 5-year/160,000-kilometre powertrain coverage for 2026 model year vehicles, providing business owners enhanced protection for their hardest-working trucks and vans.

Additionally, Ram has expanded CanAm Warranty coverage to 2026 model year retail units for cross-border consumers. This coverage provides eligibility for continued warranty protection if a vehicle is exported to the United States following more than six months and 15,000 kilometres in service in Canada.

Which Vehicles Qualify

The 10-year/160,000-kilometre limited powertrain warranty covers the following 2026 Ram vehicles:

  • Ram 1500 (including the high-performance Ram RHO)
  • Ram 2500 (including the legendary Power Wagon)
  • Ram 3500
  • Ram Chassis Cab 3500/4500/5500
  • Ram ProMaster vans

Each of these vehicles delivers capability, durability, and long-term reliability. Whether you need a versatile half-ton truck for daily driving and weekend adventures, a heavy-duty workhorse for towing and hauling, or a commercial van for business operations, Ram's warranty coverage protects your purchase.
