Warranty Service –United
States
Your selling Chevrolet Low Cab
Forward dealer has made a large
investment to ensure that they have
the proper tools, training, and parts
inventory to make any necessary
warranty repairs should they be required during the warranty period.
We ask that you return to your
selling dealer for warranty repairs.
In the event of an emergency repair,
you may take your vehicle to any
authorized Chevrolet Low Cab
Forward Truck dealer for warranty
repairs. However, certain warranty
repairs require special tools or
training that only a dealer selling
your brand may have. Therefore,
not all dealers are able to perform
every repair. If a particular
dealership cannot assist you, then
contact the Customer Assistance
Center. If you have changed your
residence, visit any Chevrolet Low
Cab Forward Truck dealer in the
United States for warranty service.
In case you require assistance in
locating a dealer to perform service
on your Chevrolet Low Cab Forward
Truck, refer to the toll-free telephone
numbers under
Customer
Assistance Offices 028.
