I'd have to disagree about them sharing similar roles. By meeting Jar Jar, Obiwan and Quigon meet the Gungans, who turn out to be an important faction who help turn the tide of the invasion. Thing is, this is where Jar Jar's role ends and yet he's still around for the entire film, and then the sequels. You could argue that he's comedy relief, but there's more than enough nuggets of humour throughout the prequels that you don't need a dedicated comedy role.

Chewbecca's role is different. He's primarily Han Solo's friend, which humanizes him a lot. Han Solo is a selfish jerk at the start of the trilogy and would seem a lot more so if he was alone, but he isn't; he has a best friend that he would die for and Chewie for him. It serves as an important hint that Han Solo really is a decent guy deep down.

And like others said, Chewie is a side-character who acts as the muscle, and therefore serves a purpose in all the films. Jar Jar not so much.
