24 Things to Know About the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
Maintenance Records
General Motors of Canada Limited
recommends that you retain receipts
covering performance of regular
vehicle maintenance. Repairs
required due to damage resulting
from lack of maintenance are not
covered under your warranty.
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.
We suggest you keep these receipts
in the glove box literature portfolio.
Also a“Maintenance Record”form
is provided in the owner's manual
(Maintenance Schedule section)
for your convenience in recording
services performed.
Chemical Paint Spotting
Some weather and atmospheric
conditions can create a chemical
fallout. Airborne pollutants can
fall upon and adhere to painted
surfaces on your vehicle.
This damage can take two
forms; blotchy, ringlet-shaped
discolorations, and/or small
irregular dark spots etched
into the paint surface.
Although no defect in the
factory applied paint causes this,
General Motors of Canada Limited
will repair, at no charge to the
owner, the painted surfaces of new
vehicles damaged by this fallout
condition within 12 months or
20 000 kilometres of purchase,
whichever comes first.
Warranty Distance Extensions
Prior to delivery, some kilometres
are put on your vehicle during
testing at the assembly plant,
during shipping and while at the
dealership. The dealership records
this odometer reading on the front
page of this warranty booklet at
delivery. For eligible vehicles, this
odometer reading is added to the
distance limits specified in the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty and the
Emission Control Systems Warranty
ensuring that you receive full benefit
of the coverage.
Warranty distance extensions
eligibility:
.Applies only to new vehicles
held exclusively in new vehicle
inventory.
.Does not apply to used vehicles,
GM owned vehicles, dealer
owned used vehicles, or dealer
demonstrator vehicles.

more than 1 600 kilometres on

vehicle may never have been
“registered”for license plates.
Warranty Service—Canada
The selling dealer has invested
in the proper tools, training and
parts inventory to ensure that any
necessary warranty repairs can be
made to your vehicle. GM requests
that the vehicle be returned to
the selling dealer for all warranty
repairs. If a situation or event
occurs where you are significantly
inconvenienced, an authorized
GM dealer can make the warranty
repairs. However, in the event the
dealer is not able to perform the
repair due to the special tool and
training requirements, contact the
Customer Assistance Offices on
page 41.
Touring Owner
Service—Canada, the
United States and Mexico
If you are touring or have
changed your residence, visit
any General Motors dealer
handling your vehicle line in Canada
or the United States for warranty
service. Warrantable repairs will
be completed at no charge to you.
You may be required to provide
proof of residency such as driver's
license, or vehicle ownership.
For your records, the servicing
dealer will provide a copy of the
warranty repair order, listing all
warranty repairs performed.
Some vehicle lines, which are
sold only in Canada, may not be
serviced by all General Motor's
dealers in the United States.If warranty service is necessary
while you are in the United States
please contact the Canadian
Customer Care Centre (CCC)
for guidance. SeeCustomer
Assistance Offices on page 41
for CCC information. A Customer
Care Ambassador will direct you
to a dealership and assist the
repairing dealer to obtain the
necessary parts and technical
information. You may be charged for
these repairs. For reimbursement
consideration by General Motors
of Canada upon your return home,
provide your dealer with a statement
of circumstances, the original repair
order, proof of ownership and any
“paid”receipts indicating the work
performed and parts replaced.
