Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 1 GM PARTICIPATION IN BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU
MEDIATION/ARBITRATION PROGRAM*
t Our experience has shown that the Customer Satisfaction Procedure de\
scribed earlier in
this section has been very successful in achieving customer satisfact\
ion. If you have
discussed a concern with your Dealership management and have no\
t
been able to
resolve it, let us know. Questions and concerns are resolved most efficiently if you
telephone or write directly
to our offices as described. However, if you have not been
substantially satisfied, Caddlac wants you
to be aware of GM's voluntary participation
in ano-charge mediation/arbitration program called BBB
AUTO LINE. This prograrn
is administered by the Council of Better Business Bureaus through local Better Business
r Bureaus. It can resolve individual disputes involving vehicle repairs and th\
e
interpretation of your New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
We prefer that you not resort to BBB
AUTO LINE until after a final decision is made
. i under the Customer Satisfaction Procedure. However, you may fide\
a claim at any time
by contacting your local Better Business Bureau (BBB)
or calling the following 24 hour
toll-free number
to obtain the telephone number of your nearest BBB office:
I-
r I 1-800-955-5 100. For further information about filling a claim, you may also write to:

I--
In order to file a claim, you will have to provide your name and address,\
the vehicle
identification number (VIN) of your vehicle, and a statement \
of the nature of your
complaint. BBB
staff may try to help resolve your dispute through mediation. If
mediation is not successful, or if you do not wish to participate in mediation, eligible
' customers may present their case to an impartial third party arbitrator at an informal
hearing. The arbitrator will render a decision in
your case, which you may accept or
f reject. If you accept a valid arbitrator decision, Cadillac will be bound \
by that decision
( The entire dispute settlement process should ordinarily take abo\
ut40 days from the time
you
file your complaint to the time a decision is rendered (or 47 days if you did not first
contact your dealership or Cadillac).
believe
it offers advantages over courts in most jurisdictions because it is fast, free of
charge, and informal (lawyers are not usually present, although you may retain one at
your expense
if you choose). Arbitrators make decisions based on the principles\
of
' fairness and equity. They arenotrequired to duplicate the functions of courts by strictly
applying state or federal law.
If you wish to go to court however, we do not require that
you first file a claim with BBB AUTO LINE ** unless state law provides otherwise.
i Whatever your preference may be, remember that if you are unhappy with the results of
BBB
AUTO LINE, you can still go to court because an arbitrator's decision is binding
on Cadillac but not on you unless you accept it.
