8 years or 100,000 miles
(160 000 kilometers), whichever

components of the vehicle.
For vehicles sold in Canada, in
addition to the Base Warranty
Coverage described in the GM
Canadian Limited Warranty,
Maintenance and Owner Assistance
booklet, General Motors of CanadaLimited will warrant certain

(160,000 kilometers), whichever
comes first, from the original
in-service date of the vehicle,
against warrantable repairs to the
specific electric propulsion
components of the vehicle.
This warranty is for the Chevrolet
Volt, Spark EV, and Malibu Hybrid
vehicles registered and normally
operated in the United States or
Canada, respectively. In addition to
the initial owner of the vehicle, the
coverage described in this
Chevrolet Volt, Spark EV, and

vehicle preparation. If you find any
paint or appearance concerns,
advise your dealer as soon as
possible. Your owner manual has
instructions regarding the care of
these items.
Vehicle Operation and Care
Considering the investment you
have made in your Chevrolet, we
know you will want to operate and
maintain it properly. We urge you to
follow the maintenance instructions
in your owner manual.
If you have questions on how to
keep your vehicle in good working
condition, see your Chevrolet
dealer, the place many customers
choose to have their maintenance
work done. You can rely on your
Chevrolet dealer to use the proper
parts and repair practices.
Maintenance and Warranty
Service Records
Retain receipts covering
performance of regular
maintenance. Receipts can be very
important if a question arises as towhether 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
recording services performed.
The servicing dealer can provide a
copy of any warranty repairs for
your records.
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, ring-shaped discolorations,
and/or small irregular dark spots
etched into the paint surface.
Although no defect in the factory
applied paint causes this, Chevrolet
will repair, at no charge to the
owner, the painted surfaces of new
vehicles damaged by this fallout
condition within 12 months or
12,000 miles of purchase, whichever
comes first.
