Check this out: 2001-2002 Model Year vehicles may be covered by Special Policy Number 04039. Please refer to Special Policy Number 04039 before submitting any warranty claims.

Have your dealer look this up. Here is a copy of it off of dieselplace.com. Be sure to read the statement in bold red underline. You might be able to get your $100 back if you wish to push the issue. This policy should still be current:
