I would guess that if you have not used the card in over 2 years its really not a useful card for your needs. Most lenders will close or warn that an account is under review for inactivity of 1+ years. Obviously your score is not an issue, but if you really want to keep the card I'd call Chase and talk to them about a product change or tell them something like I didn't realize it had been that long since I used the card but I'd like to keep it open after 10 years.
I would call them and ask if they would reopen the card and product change to something you'd use.
I've seen a few of these posts lately. It seems like Chase is cracking down on inactivity more than in the past. They used to generally let you keep an account inactive as long as you used it at least once between card expirations. I had one sit inactive for three years with no problems. (I started using it occasionally about two years ago to be safe).
