What Ram's 10-Year Warranty Means for Truck Buyers

 r m026 097 f n

When you invest in a truck, you're making a decision that will last. Ram has responded with a warranty program that sets a new standard in the Canadian market. The 2026 Ram lineup now comes with a 10-year/160,000-kilometre limited powertrain warranty - the best coverage available on any full-size truck sold in Canada.

This enhanced protection reflects how truck buyers use their vehicles today. With nearly 80% of new truck loans extending beyond five years, Ram's warranty now covers your investment for the long haul, protecting the critical components that keep your truck running strong year after year.

What the 10-Year/160,000 km Warranty Covers

Ram's enhanced limited powertrain warranty provides comprehensive protection for the components that matter most. The coverage includes your engine, transmission, transfer case, driveshafts, differentials, and axles for the full 10 years or 160,000 kilometres, whichever comes first.

This warranty applies to the original retail purchaser or lessee and is available exclusively on new, previously unregistered 2026 Ram vehicles purchased or leased from an authorized Ram dealership. The program covers both individual and business purchases, though fleet purchases receive a separate 5-year/160,000-kilometre powertrain warranty structure.

Which Ram Vehicles Qualify

The 10-year/160,000-kilometre limited powertrain warranty is available across Ram's complete lineup of 2026 models:

  • Ram 1500: Including the high-performance Ram 1500 RHO
  • Ram 2500: All trims from Big Horn to Limited Longhorn, including the Power Wagon
  • Ram 3500: The heavy-duty workhorse with class-leading capability
  • Ram Chassis Cab: Models 3500, 4500, and 5500 for commercial applications
  • Ram ProMaster Van: Professional-grade cargo and passenger configurations

The warranty excludes full battery-electric vehicles, which carry separate coverage designed for their electric powertrains.

Additional Warranty Coverage

Beyond the industry-leading powertrain warranty, every 2026 Ram truck and van includes comprehensive protection:

  • Basic Warranty: 3 years/60,000 kilometres covering the entire vehicle
  • Corrosion Perforation: 5 years/160,000 kilometres protecting against rust-through
  • Roadside Assistance: 5 years/100,000 kilometres for support on every journey

These coverage periods work together to provide complete protection throughout your ownership experience.

Fleet and Cross-Border Coverage

Ram has also enhanced warranty programs for business owners and cross-border customers. Fleet buyers purchasing 2026 model-year vehicles now receive 5-year/160,000-kilometre powertrain coverage, giving commercial operators extended protection for their hardest-working trucks and vans.

The expanded CanAm Warranty coverage benefits customers who may relocate to the United States. If your 2026 Ram is exported to the U.S. after more than six months and 15,000 kilometres of service in Canada, your warranty coverage continues to apply. This cross-border protection extends to all Stellantis nameplates for 2024 model year and forward vehicles.

Why Ram Extended the Warranty

The automotive landscape has changed in recent years. Truck prices have increased, and buyers are responding by financing their purchases over longer periods. With the majority of truck loans now extending beyond five years, many owners found themselves making payments on vehicles no longer covered by factory powertrain warranties.

Ram's 10-year/160,000-kilometre warranty addresses this gap directly. The extended coverage aligns with modern financing realities, ensuring your powertrain remains protected throughout your loan term and beyond.

This warranty reflects Ram's confidence in the durability and reliability of their engineering.
