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 Allante call 1-800-ALLANTI?.
In Canada, contact GM
of Canada Customer Assistance Center in Oshawa by
calling 1-800-263-3777 (ENGLISH)
or 1 - 800 - 263 - 7854 (FRENCH).
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
American Export Sales in Canada by calling 1-416-644-4112.

or title, or the plate attached to
the left top of the instrument panel and visible

- Dealership name and location

your inquiry prompt attention, please call the appropriate toll free
