ATS 68-RFE Transmission Warranty Rider

 

Due to the nature of the 68RFE, and how Dodge originally designed the Transmission Control Module (“TCM”), there are inherent issues with the transmission’s shift calibrations, which severely affect performance and longevity. Fortunately, ATS has identified these issues and we have the ability to correctly calibrate them by offering supporting products.

 

These products are: The ATS Co-Pilot when used in conjunction with the Stock Dodge (OEM) TCM transmission calibration allow for proper operation of the 68-RFE transmission. Without these support products installed, ATS must alter the terms of its Limited Warranty if there is an issue with your ATS 68-RFE transmission. To ensure continued five-year, 500,000 mile Limited Warranty on your ATS 68RFE transmission, you MUST have installed the ATS Co-Pilot product and have a (stock OEM factory calibration) installed in your TCM, at the time of installation of the ATS transmission, and have serial numbers registered with ATS PRIOR or during the installation and use of your new transmission.

 

ATS Co-Pilot (2007.5 to 2022)

 

• Utilized to optimize line pressure, TCC and clutch timing in the 68RFE

 

• Use the latest Dodge OEM Flash calibration update for the TCM

 

Note: When the Co-Pilot is installed on a 68-RFE it will override most commands sent from the TCM regardless of the calibration but it cannot always prevent negative CVI issued that ultimately cause transmission failure. This is the primary reason ATS will only support the factory and ATS Approved pre-loaded calibration. In no event will ATS provide full transmission warranty when any other TCM calibration is used including H&S MCC, B&G, any custom tuning or other unknown TCM calibrations etc.

 

If you have all supporting products installed and registered before or at the date of your initial install and you have followed the ATS initial install instructions of your ATS transmission, then you are covered by the terms of ATS’ five-year, 500,000 mile Limited Warranty.

 

If you do not have all supporting products installed and there is a failure related to your transmission, you will be responsible for the costs associated with the failure, this does not mean that your warranty of VOID it only means you will be required to pay for what ever damage has occurred to your transmission including shipping, labor etc. You will also have the opportunity

to correct the calibration issues and reinstate the parts portion of your existing warranty.
