software and complete access to
product updates, applicable to your
vehicle to ensure fast and accurate
diagnostics. This level of service is
only available at an authorized GM
dealership.

decrease with time and miles
driven. Depending on use, the
battery may degrade as little as
10% to as much as 30% of capacity
over the warranty period. A dealer
service technician will determine if
the battery energy capacity (kWh
storage) is within the proper limit,
given the age and mileage of the
vehicle. Typical tests can take up to
24 hours.
Repair
If possible, components will be
repaired or replaced, and the
original battery will be returned to
the vehicle.

20 Things to Know About the New Vehicle Limited Warranty
Warranty Repairs—
Component Exchanges
In the interest of customer
satisfaction, General Motors of
Canada Limited may offer exchange
service on some vehicle
components. This service is
intended to reduce the amount of
time your vehicle is not available for
use due to repairs. Components
used in exchange are service
replacement parts that may be new,
remanufactured, or refurbished.
Remanufactured parts meet GM
approved service parts
requirements and are made from
previously used components in a
process that involves disassembly,
inspection, cleaning, update of
software and replacement parts as
appropriate, testing and reassembly.
Refurbished parts meet GM
approved service part requirements
and are previously used parts that
are inspected, cleaned, tested, and
repackaged.All exchange components used
meet GM standards and are
warranted the same as new
components. Examples of the types
of components that might be
serviced in this fashion include:
engine and transmission
assemblies, instrument cluster
assemblies, radios, compact disc
players, batteries, and powertrain
control modules.
Maintenance and Warranty
Service Records
Retain receipts covering
performance of regular
maintenance. 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.
A“Maintenance Record”is provided
in the maintenance schedule
section of the owner manual for
your convenience in recording
services performed.For your records, the servicing
dealer should provide a copy of the
warranty repair order listing all
warranty repairs performed.
Warranty Repairs—Recycled
Materials
Both Environment Canada
guidelines and GM support the
capture, purification, and reuse of
automotive air conditioning
refrigerant gases and engine
coolant.
As a result, any repairs GM may
make to your vehicle may involve
the installation of purified reclaimed
refrigerant and coolant.
Tire Service
Any General Motors dealer handling
your vehicle line or tire dealer for
your brand of tires can assist you
with tire service. If, after contacting
one of these dealers, you need
further assistance or you have
questions, contact the Customer
