Customer Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are

Cadillac. Normally, any concerns with
the sales transaction or the operation
of the vehicle will be resolved by your
dealer's sales or service departments.

misunderstandings can occur. If your
concern has not been resolved to your
satisfaction, the following steps

management. Normally, concerns can
be quickly resolved at that level. If the
