Shuttle Service or Taxi
Warranty work can frequently be handled in one day, but there \
is no
reason
for you to wait around. Cadillac helps eliminate inconvenience to
you with transportation alternatives.
r

Gold Key Courtesy Transportation provides shuttle service for sa\
me day warranty work. Your Cadillac Dealer can get you where you need\
to be
with minimal interruption of your daily schedule.
Another option is a taxi.
If the warranty repairs require two or more
hours and require your CadiIlac to be kept overnight, the Gold\
Key
Courtesy Transportation plan allows you to be compensated up to $30
for a taxi. Be sure to get receipts for your Service Advisor so you can
be reimbursed.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION PROCEDURE
Your satisfaction and goodwill are important to your dealer and to Cadillac.
Normally, any problems with the sales transaction or the operation of your vehicle
will be resolved by your dealer's Sales or Service Departments. Sometimes,
however, despite the best intentions of all concerned, misunderstandings can
occur.
If your concern has not been resolved to your satisfaction, the following
steps should be taken:
STEP ONE - Discuss your problem with a member of dealership management.
Satisfaction can often be quickly obtained at that level. If the matter has already
been reviewed with the Sales, Service or Parts Manager, contact the General
Manager or
owner of the dealership.
STEP TWO - If after contacting a member of Dealership Management, it
appears your problem cannot be resolved by the dealership without further help,
contact the Cadillac Consumer Relations Center 24 hours a day by calling
1-800-458-8006 or if you have an AllantQ call 1-800-AL,LAN'l%.
In Canada, contact
GM of Canada Customer Assistance Center in Oshawa by
calling 1-800-263-3777 (ENGLISH) or 1-800-263-7854
(FRENCH). ~2:: .&;gy$
In Mexico, call 1-900-254- 17-86. In Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands,
call 1-809-763
- 1315. In all other overseas locations, contact GM North

left top of the instrument panel andvisible
through the windshield.)

That is why
we suggest you follow Step One first.
CUSTOMER ASSISTANCE FOR THE HEARING OR
SPEECH IMPAIRED
To assist owners who have hearing difficulties, Cadillac has instal\
led special

STATE W-TY ENFORCEMENT LAWS
Laws in many states perniit owners to obtain a replacement vehicle or a refund of
the purchase price under certain circumstances. The provisions of these laws vary
from state to state.
To the extent allowed by state law, General Motors requires
that
you first provide us with written notification of any service difficulty you have
experienced
so that we have an opportunity to make any needed repairs before
you are eligible for the remedies provided by these laws. Your written notification
should be sent
to the Cadillac Customer Relations Center. Please see Page XX for
the address.

MEDIATION/ARBITRATION
PROGRAM*
Both Cadillac Motor Car Division and your Cadillac dealer are committed to
making sure you are completely satisfied with your new vehicle.
If a situation
arises where you feel your concern has not been adequately addressed, our
experience has shown that the Customer Satisfaction Procedure described on
Page
1 is very successful.
There may be instances where an impartial third-party can assist in arriving at
a
solution to a disagreement regarding vehicle repairs or interpretation of the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
To assist in resolving these disagreements, Cadillac
voluntarily participates in BBB AUTO LINE.
BBB AUTO LINE is an out-of-court program administered by the Better
Business Bureau system to settle disputes between customers and automobile
manufacturers. This program is available free
of charge to customers who own or
lease a
GM vehicle.
If you are not satisfied after following the Customer Satisfaction Procedure, you
may contact the BBB using the toll-free telephone number or the address listed
below:
BBB
AUTO LINE
Council of Better Business Bureaus
4200 Wilson Boulevard
Suite
800
Arlington, Virginia 22203
Telephone
1-800-955-5100
To file a claim, you will be asked to provide your name and address, your Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN), and a statement of the nature of your complaint.
Eligibility is limited by vehicle age and mileage, and other factors.
We prefer that you utilize the Customer Satisfaction Procedure before you resort
to AUTO LINE, but you may contact the BBB at any time. The BBB will attempt
to resolve the complaint by serving as an intermediary between you and Cadillac.
If this mediation is unsuccessful, an informal hearing will be scheduled where
eligible customers may present their case to an impartial third-party arbitrator.
The arbitrator
will make a decision which you may accept or reject. If you accept
the decision,
GM will be bound by that decision. The entire dispute resolution
procedure should ordinarily take about forty days from the time you file a claim
until a decision is made.
Some state laws may require you
to use this program before filing a claim with a
state-run arbitration program or in the courts. For further information, contact
the BBB or the Cadillac Consumer Relations Center.
NOTE: This program may not be available in all states, depending on state law.
General Motors reserves the right
to change eligibility limitations andor to
discontinue its participation in this program.
