24 Things to Know About the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
Maintenance Records
General Motors of Canada Limited
recommends that you retain receipts
covering performance of regular
vehicle maintenance. Repairs
required due to damage resulting
from lack of maintenance are not
covered under your warranty.
Receipts can be very important if
a question arises as to whether a
malfunction is caused by lack of
maintenance or a defect in material
or workmanship.
We suggest you keep these receipts
in the glove box literature portfolio.
Also a“Maintenance Record”form
is provided in the owner's manual
(Maintenance Schedule section)
for your convenience in recording
services performed.
Chemical Paint Spotting
Some weather and atmospheric
conditions can create a chemical
fallout. Airborne pollutants can
fall upon and adhere to painted
surfaces on your vehicle.
This damage can take two
forms; blotchy, ringlet-shaped
discolorations, and/or small
irregular dark spots etched
into the paint surface.
Although no defect in the
factory applied paint causes this,
General Motors of Canada Limited
will repair, at no charge to the
owner, the painted surfaces of new
vehicles damaged by this fallout
condition within 12 months or
20 000 kilometres of purchase,
whichever comes first.
