What is Tread Lightly Discount? (from JLWF)
The Tread Lightly Discount / The Affiliate Rewards Program guarantees a buyer preferred pricing -- the purchase or lease of a participating Chrysler, Jeep, Ram, Dodge, SRT, and Fiat vehicle at 1% below factory invoice price. Of course, using this discount does not preclude you from trying to negotiate an even better deal at more than 1% below invoice price. And you can combine this discount with current incentives.
Tread Lightly membership currently costs $100 annually (you can cancel after purchasing your vehicle). After signing up, you must be a member for 30 days before you can use the discount to purchase / lease your Jeep.
Membership Signup Process
I was a little confused how the signup process worked and how long it would take so I figured I would post my experience here.
First I signed up on the tread lightly website at the $100 "Individual level". This is very important to get the level right.
It is also VERY important to use your real, legal full name and birthday on here because you will need it later to verify it's you. I only say this because for most things, I just use the short version of my name and luckily I didn't here.
I did this on Feb 19 2019.
About 10 days later I got a small package from them with a nice Tread Lightly T-Shit, a sticker and a form explaining how to get my "Control Number".
They give you the Tread Lightly "Company Code" in this letter which you will use to get your "Control Number".
I waited until today March 14th (Less than 30 days!) to go try and get my control number.
You then go to : https://www.fcausaffiliates.com
You enter the company code and you'll be asked to login using your name, and your DOB:
That'll take you to their main page where you can click "Get A Control Number"
Once you click the "Get A Control Number" button you'll be take to a simple form which has your name and DOB pre-populated. This means you can ONLY get a control number for the purchaser's name. Some other rules and restrictions are posted on this page but the form looks like this:
One you click submit here you're taken to a form with your shiny new control number on it.
Enjoy
