If your vehicle requires overnight
warranty repairs, and public
transportation is used instead of the
retailer's shuttle service, the
expense must be supported by
original receipts and can only be up
to the maximum amount allowed by
Saturn for shuttle service. In
addition, for U.S. customers, should
you arrange transportation through
a friend or relative, limited
reimbursement for reasonable fuel
expenses may be available. Claim
amounts should reflect actual costs
and be supported by original
receipts. See your retailer for
information regarding the allowance
amounts for reimbursement of fuel
or other transportation costs.Courtesy Rental Vehicle

you with a courtesy rental vehicle or
reimburse you for a rental vehicle

repair. Rental reimbursement will be
limited and must be supported by
original receipts. This requires that
you sign and complete a rental
agreement and meet state/
provincial, local, and rental vehicle
provider requirements.
Requirements vary and may include
minimum age requirements,
insurance coverage, credit card, etc.
You are responsible for fuel usage
charges and may also be
responsible for taxes, levies, usage
fees, excessive mileage, or rental
usage beyond the completion of the
repair.
It may not be possible to provide a
like-vehicle as a courtesy rental.Additional Program
