Collision Damage
Repair
If the vehicle is involved in a

proper equipment and quality
replacement parts. Poorly
performed collision repairs
diminish the vehicle resalevalue, and safety performance
can be compromised in
subsequent collisions.
Collision Parts
Genuine GM Collision parts
are new parts made with the
same materials and
construction methods as the
parts with which the vehicle
was originally built. Genuine
GM Collision parts are the
best choice to ensure that the
vehicle's designed
appearance, durability, and
safety are preserved. The use
of Genuine GM parts can help
maintain the GM New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
Recycled original equipment
parts may also be used for
repair. These parts are
typically removed from
vehicles that were total losses
in prior crashes. In most cases,
the parts being recycled are
from undamaged sections of
the vehicle. A recycled original
equipment GM part may be an
acceptable choice to maintain
