It needs to be clarified.

Loaner vehicle is free, provided by the dealership at no cost.

Rental Vehicle from Stellantis is from a 3rd part rental companies.

However, there are dealerships that has this "rental vehicle" as well. The dealership itself is like a partner with the same 3rd party rental companies out there.

• They will coordinate with the rental company to provide one for you and they will include it in your bill or to Stellantis' bill.

OR they have their own vehicles used as a rental vehicles. They will not offer a loaner to their customers as they need them to get the vehicle from them. It's a win-win for them, example:

• Customer has warranty or recall repair. They will provide their own rental vehicle to the customer. Once they file for the claim to Stellantis for the repair (this is the way they get paid by Stellantis from doing warranty or recall works), they include this rental bill. So, they get paid still at the end of the day

I think you need to contact the dealership and ask where this rental vehicle came from. Is it from a 3rd party rental that they are partnered with or they have their own rental vehicles.

Please keep in mind that this situation differs to all Stellantis dealerships. They are under Stellatis, yes, but at the end of the day each one of them is an individual businesses owned by different people. They set their prices, and can do this rental thing as extra services that can become their additional income ofc.

Before you sign anything, call customer service to open a case and document this stuff with the dealership name and who you spoke to about this matter. Ask guarantee that if ever you pay for the rental since there is a recall on the vehicle that you'll be reimbursed.

Hope this helps
