Customer Satisfaction Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are important to your
retailer and Oldsmobile. Normally, any concern with the
sales transaction
or the operation of your vehicle will be
resolved by your retailer’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 concern with a member of
your retail facility management. Normally, concerns can
be quickly resolved at that level. If the matter has
already been reviewed with the Sales, Service, or Parts Manager,
contact the owner
of the retail facility or the
General Manager.
STEP TWO -- If after contacting a member of the retail
facility management, it appears your concern cannot be
resolved by the retail facility without further help,
contact the Oldsmobile Customer Assistance Network
by calling 1-800-442-6537.
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 (525) 254-3777. In Puerto Rico, call
1-800-496-9992 (English)
or 1-800-496-9993

Service Manuals
Service manuals contain diagnostic and repair
information for all chassis and body systems. They may
be useful for owners
who wish to gain a greater
understanding of their vehicle. They are also useful for
owners with the appropriate skill level or training who
wish to perform “do-it-yourself’ service. These are
authentic General Motors service manuals meant for
professional, qualified technicians.
In some cases they
refer to specialized tools, equipment and safety
procedures necessary to service the vehicle.
Service Bulletins
Service bulletins covering various subjects are regularly
sent to all General Motors dealershipshetail facilities.
GM monitors product performance in the field. When
service methods are found which promote better service
on GM vehicles, bulletins
are created to help the
technician perform better service. Service bplletins may
involve any number
of vehicles. Some will describe
inexpensive service, others will describe expensive
service. Some will advise new or unexpected conditions,
and others may help avoid future costly repairs. An
important reminder
- - service bulletins. are meant for
qualified technicians. Since these bulletins are issued
throughout the model year and beyond, an index is
required and published quarterly to help identify specific
bulletins. Subscriptions are available. You can order an
index at the toll-free numbers listed previously, or
ask a
GM dealerhetailer to see an index or individual bulletin.
Owner Publications
Owner’s manuals, warranty folders and various owner
assistance booklets provide owners with general
operation and maintenance information.
