16 Things to Know About the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
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.
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 damagecaused 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 dealer 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 Cadillac, we
know you will want to operate and
maintain it properly. We urge you to
follow the maintenance instructions
in your owner manual.
If you have questions on how to
keep your vehicle in good working
condition, see your Cadillac dealer,
the place many customers chooseto have their maintenance work
done. You can rely on your Cadillac
dealer to use the proper parts and
repair practices.
Maintenance and Warranty
Service Records
Retain receipts covering
performance of regular
maintenance. 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 Record” is provided
in the maintenance schedule
section of the owner manual for
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
