Customer Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your retailer and to
Saturn. Together we are committed
to providing our customers with
unparalleled service, before,
during, and after the purchase
of a Saturn vehicle, for total
customer satisfaction. We call this
the Saturn Difference. Normally,
any concerns with the sales
transaction or the operation of the
vehicle are resolved by the retailer’s
sales or service departments.

If, for any reason, your ownership
experience falls below your
expectations, we suggest you take
the following action:
STEP ONE:Contact the Retail
Customer Assistance Liaison. Any
member of the retail management
team has the authority and the
desire to resolve your concerns.
Normally, concerns can be quickly
resolved at this level.
STEP TWO:Should you need
additional assistance, in the U.S.,
contact the Saturn Customer
Assistance Center by calling
1-800-553-6000. In Canada, call the
Saturn Customer Communication
Centre at 1-800-263-1999. A Saturn
Customer Assistance Center team
member will handle your call and
assist in providing product and
warranty information, the nearest
retailer location, roadside assistance,
brochures, literature and discuss any
concerns you may have.We encourage you to call the toll-free
number in order to give your inquiry
prompt attention. Please have the
following information available to
give the Customer Assistance
Representative:
Vehicle Identication Number
(VIN). This 17-digit number can
be found on the vehicle
registration or title, on the upper
driver side corner of the
instrument panel, or on your
roadside assistance key card.
The name of your selling and
servicing retail facility.
Vehicle delivery date and present
mileage.
Your daytime and evening phone
numbers.
When contacting Saturn, please
remember that your concern will
likely be resolved at a retailer’s
facility. That is why we suggest you
follow Step One rst.STEP THREE (U.S. Owners):
Both Saturn and its retailers are
committed to making sure you are
completely satised with your Saturn
vehicle. However, if you continue to
remain unsatised after following the
procedure outlined in Steps One and
Two, Saturn and its retailers offer the
additional assistance of a neutral
party through our voluntary
participation in a mediation/
arbitration program called Better
Business Bureau (BBB) Auto Line.
The BBB Auto Line Program is an
out-of-court program administered
by the Council of Better Business
Bureaus to settle automotive
disputes regarding vehicle repairs or
the interpretation of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. This program is
available at no cost to you, our
customer.
Although you may be required
to resort to this informal dispute
resolution program prior to ling a
court action, use of the program is
free of charge and your case is
generally heard within 40 days.

the Mediation/Arbitration Program
In the event that you do not feel your
concerns have been addressed after
following the procedure outlined in
Steps 1 and 2, General Motors of
Canada Limited has committed to
binding arbitration of owner disputes
involving factory-related vehicle
service claims. The program
provides for the review of the facts
involved by an impartial third party
arbiter, and may include an informal
hearing before the arbiter. The
program is designed so that the
entire dispute settlement process,
from the time you le your complaint
to the nal decision, should be
completed in approximately 70 days.

offers advantages over courts in
most jurisdictions because it is
informal, quick, and free of charge.For further information concerning

Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP),
