THINGS TO KNOW ABOUT THE NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY 13
Warranty Repairs–Component
Exchanges
In the interest of customer
satisfaction, Cadillac may offer
exchange service on some vehicle
components. This service is intended
to reduce the amount of time your
vehicle is not available for use due to
repairs. Components used in exchange
are service replacement parts that
may be new, remanufactured,
or refurbished.
Remanufactured parts meet Cadillac
approved service part requirements
and are made from previously used
components in a process that involves
disassembly, inspection, cleaning,
update of software and replacement of
parts as appropriate, testing, and
reassembly.
Refurbished parts meet Cadillac
approved service part requirements
and are previously used parts that are
inspected, cleaned, tested, and
repackaged.
All exchange components used meet
Cadillac 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.
Warranty Repairs
–Recycled
Materials
Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) guidelines and Cadillac support
the capture, purification, and reuse of
automotive air conditioning
refrigerant gases and engine coolant.
As a result, any repairs Cadillac may
make to your vehicle may involve the
installation of purified reclaimed
refrigerant and coolant.
Tire Service
Any authorized Cadillac or tire dealer
for your brand of tires can assist you
with tire service. If, after contacting
one of these dealers, you need further
assistance or you have questions,
contact the Cadillac Customer
Assistance Center. The toll-free
telephone numbers are listed under
Customer Assistance Offices 033.
Aftermarket Engine
Performance Enhancement
Products and Modifications
Some aftermarket engine performance
products and modifications promise a
way to increase the horsepower and
torque levels of your vehicle’s
powertrain. You should be aware that
these products may have detrimental
effects on the performance and life of
the engine, exhaust emission system,
transmission, and drivetrain. Engine
power enhancement products may
enable the engine to operate at
horsepower and torque levels that
could damage, create failure, or reduce
the life of the engine, engine emission
system, transmission, and drivetrain.
Damage, failure, or reduced life of the
engine, transmission, emission
system, drivetrain, or other vehicle
components caused by aftermarket
engine performance enhancement
products or modifications may not be
covered under your vehicle warranty.
