Customer Satisfaction
Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your dealer and to
Buick. Normally, any concerns with
the sales transaction or the operation
of your vehicle will be resolved by
your GM 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 dealership
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 dealership or the general
manager.
Customer Assistance Information 7-1

STEP TWO:If after contacting a
member of dealership management,
it appears your concern cannot
be resolved by the dealership
without further help, in the U.S.,
contact the Buick Customer
Assistance Center by calling
1-800-521-7300. In Canada, contact
General Motors of Canada
Customer Communication Centre by
calling 1-800-263-3777 (English)
or 1-800-263-7854 (French).
We encourage you to call the
toll-free number in order to give your
inquiry prompt attention. Please
have the following information
available to give the Customer
Assistance Representative:
Vehicle Identication Number.
This is available from the
vehicle registration or title, or the
plate at the top left of the
instrument panel.
Dealership name and location
Vehicle delivery date and present
mileageWhen contacting Buick, please
remember that your concern
will likely be resolved at a dealer’s
facility. That is why we suggest
you follow Step One rst if you have
a concern.
STEP THREE — U.S. Owners:
Both General Motors and your dealer
are committed to making sure you
are completely satised with your
new vehicle. However, in the United
States, if you continue to remain
unsatised after following the
procedure outlined in Steps One and
Two, you can le with the BBB Auto
Line Program to enforce your rights.
The BBB Auto Line Program is an
out of court program administered by
the Council of Better Business
Bureaus to settle automotive
disputes regarding vehicle repairs or
the interpretation of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. Although you may
be required to resort to this informal
dispute resolution program prior to
ling a court action, use of the
program is free of charge and yourcase will generally be heard within
40 days. If you do not agree with the
decision given in your case, you may
reject it and proceed with any other
venue for relief available to you.
You may contact the BBB Auto
Line Program using the toll-free
telephone number or write them at
the following address:
BBB Auto Line Program
Council of Better Business
Bureaus, Inc.
4200 Wilson Boulevard
Suite 800
Arlington, VA 22203-1838
Telephone: 1-800-955-5100
dr.bbb.org/goauto
This program is available in all
50 states and the District of
Columbia. Eligibility is limited by
vehicle age, mileage and other
factors. General Motors reserves
the right to change eligibility
limitations and/or discontinue its
participation in this program.

STEP THREE — Canadian
Owners:In the event that you do
not feel your concerns have
been addressed after following the
procedure outlined in Steps one
and two, General Motors of Canada
Limited wants you to be aware of
its participation in a no-charge
Mediation/Arbitration program.
General Motors of Canada Limited
has committed to binding
arbitration of owner disputes
involving factory-related vehicle
service claims. The program
provides for the review of the facts
involved by an impartial third
party arbiter, and may include an
informal hearing before the arbiter.
The program is designed so
that the entire dispute settlement
process, from the time you le
your complaint to the nal decision,
should be completed in
approximately 70 days. We believe
our impartial program offers
advantages over courts in most
jurisdictions because it is informal,
quick, and free of charge.For further information concerning
eligibility in the Canadian Motor
Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP),
call toll-free 1-800-207-0685.
Alternatively you may call the
General Motors Customer
Communication Centre,

1-800-263-7854 (French), or
you may write to the
Mediation/Arbitration Program at the

should be accompanied by your

and advising your service consultant
of your transportation needs, your
dealer/retailer can help minimize
your inconvenience.
If your vehicle cannot be scheduled
into the service department
immediately, keep driving it until it
can be scheduled for service,
unless, of course, the problem is
safety-related. If it is, please
call your dealership/retailer, let them
know this, and ask for instructions.If the dealer/retailer requests you to
bring the vehicle for service, you
are urged to do so as early in
the work day as possible to allow
for the same day repair.

experience, we and our participating

Transportation, a customer support
program for vehicles with the Bumper
