Here you will find out how to contact Chevrolet if you
need assistance. This section also tells
you how to obtain
service publications and how to report any safety
defects.

Satisfaction Procedure, Customer Assistance for
Hearing or Speech Impaired,
BBB Auto Line -
Alternative Dispute Resolution Program, Reporting
Safety Defects, Roadside Assistance, and Service and
Owner Publications.
Customer Satisfaction Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are important to your
dealer and Chevrolet. Normally, any concern with the
sales transaction or the operation
of your vehicle will be
resolved by your dealer’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
dealer 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 dealer or the General Manager.
STEP TWO -- If after contacting a member of dealer
management, it appears your concern cannot be resolved
by the dealer without further help, contact the Chevrolet
Customer Assistance Center by calling
1 -800-222- 1020.
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
1-800-494-9992 (English) or 1-800-496-9993
(Spanish). In the
U.S. Virgin Islands, call
1-800-496-9994. In other overseas locations, contact
GM North American Export Sales in Canada by calling

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine GM Participation in BBB AUTO
LINE - Alternative Dispute
Resolution Program*
*This program may not be available in all states,
depending
on state law. Canadian owners refer to your
Warranty and Owner Assistance Information booklet.
General Motors reserves the right to change eligibility
limitations and/or to discontinue
its participation in this
program.
Both Chevrolet and your Chevrolet dealer are
committed
to making sure you are completely satisfied
with your new vehicle. Our experience has shown that,
if a situation arises where you feel your concern has not
been adequately addressed, the Customer Satisfaction
Procedure described earlier in this section is very
successful.
There may be instances where an impartial third-party
can assist
in arriving at a solution to a disagreement
regarding vehicle repairs or interpretation
of the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty.
To assist in resolving these
disagreements, Chevrolet voluntarily participates
in
BBB AUTO LINE. BBB
AUTO LINE
is an out-of-court program
administered by the Better Business Bureau system
to
settle disputes between customers and automobile
manufacturers. This program is available free of charge
to customers who currently own or lease a
GM vehicle.
If you are not satisfied after following the Customer
Satisfaction Procedure, you may contact
the BBB using
the toll-free telephone number, or write them at the
following address:
BBB AUTO
LINE
Council of Better Business Bureaus
4200 Wilson Boulevard
Suite 800
Arlington, VA
22203
Telephone: 1-800-955-5 100
To file a claim, you will be asked to provide your name
and address,
your Vehicle Identification Number (VIN),
and a statement
of the nature of your complaint.
Eligibility is limited
by vehicle age and mileage, and
other factors.
8-3

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine We prefer you utilize the Customer Satisfaction
Procedure before
you resort to AUTO LINE, but you
may contact the
BBB at any time. The BBB will attempt
to resolve
the complaint serving as an intermediary
between
you and Chevrolet. If this mediation is
unsuccessful, an informal hearing will be scheduled
where eligible customers may present their case
to an
impartial third-party arbitrator.
The arbitrator will make
a decision which you may
accept or reject. If you accept the decision, GM will be
bound by that decision. The entire dispute resolution
procedure should ordinarily take about forty days from
the time you file
a claim until a decision is made.
Some state laws may require
you to use this program
before filing a claim with
a state-run arbitration program
or in the courts. For further information, contact the
BBB at 1-800-955-5100 or the Chevrolet Customer
Assistance Center at 1-800-222-
1020.
REPORTING SAFETY DEFECTS
TO THE UNITED STATES
GOVERNMENT
If you believe that your vehicle has a defect which could
cause
a crash or could cause injury or death, you should
immediately inform
the National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration (NHTSA),
in addition to
notifying General Motors.
If NHTSA receives similar complaints, it may open an
investigation, and if
it finds that a safety defect exists in
a group
of vehicles, it may order a recall and remedy
campaign. However, NHTSA cannot become involved
in individual problems between you, your dealer, or
General Motors.
To contact NHTSA, you may either call the Auto Safety
Hotline toll-free at 1-800-424-9393 (or
366-0 123 in the
Washington, D.C. area) or write to:
NHTSA,
U.S. Department of Transportation
Washington,
D.C. 20590
You can also obtain other information about motor
vehicle safety from the Hotline.
