General Motors' Commitment to You
General Motors is committed to ensuring an excellent ownership experience with your new vehicle.
Your General Motors dealer also wants you to be completely satisfied and invites you to return for all your service needs, both during and after the warranty period.
Owner Assistance
Should you ever encounter a problem during or after the warranty periods that is not resolved, talk to a member of dealer management. Under certain circumstances, GM and/or GM dealers may provide assistance after the limited warranty period has expired when the problem results from a defect in material or workmanship. These instances will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. If the problem persists, follow the procedures outlined under Customer Satisfaction Procedure 0 32.
GM Participation in the Mediation/Arbitration Program
Refer to Customer Satisfaction Procedure 0 32, for information on
the voluntary, binding Mediation/ Arbitration Program in which GM participates.
The General Motors Protection Plan
Many owners seek to enhance their vehicle ownership by purchasing an optional service contract. General Motors offers its own GM Protection Plan (GMPP), a service contract which provides mechanical repair protection, a rental/alternate transportation allowance, and the availability of GM Roadside Assistance or a towing and road service allowance. The GM Protection Plan is available in different levels of coverage, each offering a variety of time/kilometre options to suit your driving needs.
The GM Protection Plan is the only optional service contract backed by the worldwide resources of General
Motors. It can be the most valuable option you choose for your vehicle. See your GM Dealer for prices, vehicle eligibility guidelines and more details.
Owner Name/Address Change
General Motors encourages all owners to report, at their earliest convenience, a change in name or address by calling our Customer Care Centre toll free at 1-800-263-3777 (English) or 1-800-263-7854 (French). If you are a subsequent owner, please be sure to advise us by calling the number above. You may also visit the General Motors dealer of your choice to report a change in vehicle ownership. The current owner name and address is essential for General Motors to provide timely notification to owners of important information related to their vehicles.
We thank you for choosing a General Motors product.

In the interest of customer satisfaction, General Motors of Canada Company may offer exchange service on some vehicle components.

Components used in exchange are service replacement parts that may be new, remanufactured, or refurbished.
Remanufactured parts meet GM approved service parts requirements and are made from previously used components in a process that involves disassembly, inspection, cleaning, update of software and replacement parts as appropriate, testing and reassembly.
Refurbished parts meet GM approved service part requirements and are previously used parts that are inspected, cleaned, tested, and repackaged.
All exchange components used meet GM standards and are warranted the same as new
components. Examples of the types of components that might be serviced in this fashion include: engine and transmission assemblies, instrument cluster assemblies, radios, compact disc players, batteries, and powertrain control modules.

20 Things to Know About the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
After-Manufacture Rustproofing
Your vehicle was designed and built to resist corrosion. Application of additional rust-inhibiting materials is neither necessary nor required under the Sheet Metal Coverage. GM makes no recommendations concerning the usefulness or value of such products.
Application of after-manufacture rustproofing products may create an environment which reduces the corrosion resistance built into your vehicle. Repairs to correct damage caused by such applications are not covered under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
Paint, Trim and Appearance Items
Defects in paint, trim, upholstery, or other appearance items are normally corrected during new vehicle preparation. If you find any paint or appearance concerns, advise your dealers as soon as
possible. Your owner manual has instructions regarding the care of these items.
Vehicle Operation and Care
Considering the investment you have made in your new vehicle, we know you will want to operate and maintain it properly. We urge you to follow the maintenance instructions in your owner's manual.
If you have any questions on how to keep your vehicle in good working condition, see your General Motors dealer, the place many customers choose to have their maintenance work done. You can rely on your dealer to use proper parts and repair practices.
Maintenance Records
Retain receipts covering performance of regular vehicle maintenance. Repairs required due to damage resulting from lack of maintenance are not covered under your warranty. Receipts can be very important if a question arises as to
whether a malfunction is caused by lack of maintenance or a defect in material or workmanship.
A Maintenance Recordform is provided in the owner's manual (Maintenance Schedule section) for your convenience in recording services performed. The servicing dealer can provide a copy of any warranty repairs for your records
Chemical Paint Spotting
Some weather and atmospheric conditions can create a chemical fallout. Airborne pollutants can fall upon and adhere to painted surfaces on your vehicle. This damage can take two forms; blotchy, ringlet-shaped discolorations, and/or small irregular dark spots etched into the paint surface.
Although no defect in the factory applied paint causes this, General Motors of Canada Company will repair, at no charge to the owner, the painted surfaces of new vehicles damaged by this fallout condition

rebuilt vehicle uses undamaged parts and components from the written-off vehicle.
Additionally, General Motors does not warranty non-GM parts, calibrations, and/or software modifications. The use of parts,
control module calibrations, software modifications, and/or any other alterations not issued through General Motors will void the warranty coverage for those components that are damaged or otherwise affected by the installation of the non-GM part, control module calibration, software modifications, and/or other alteration.
The only exception is that non-GM parts labeled Certified to EPA Standardsare covered by the Federal Emissions Performance Warranty.
