If your air conditioning system is
functioning properly, it is not
necessary to remove and replace
the refrigerant or compressor oil.
. A V-ribbed belt is used for the
fan belt. This type of belt
requires the tension to be
adjusted more accurately than is
required with the conventional V
belt. Inappropriate tension could
cause the belt to make noise or
break. When the fan belt is
damaged, electricity is not
properly generated or becomes
a cause of engine overheating.
You must check the tension of
the fan belt carefully.
. Use dealer-certified genuine
parts when changing the
fan belt. .
Have the vehicle inspected and
serviced at your dealer.
. The air conditioning drive belt,
if equipped, must be adjusted
after fan belt adjustment. If the
belt is not adjusted properly, the
A/C belt may experience
excessive tension, and possible
premature failure.

Gather the following information:
. Driver name, address, and
telephone number.
. Driver license number.
. Owner name, address, and
telephone number.
. Vehicle license plate number.
. Vehicle make, model, and
model year.
. Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN).
. Insurance company and policy
number.
. General description of the
damage to the other vehicle.
Choose a reputable repair facility
that uses quality replacement parts.
See “Collision Parts” earlier in this
section.Managing the Vehicle Damage
Repair Process
In the event that the vehicle requires
damage repairs, GM recommends
that you take an active role in its
repair. If you have a pre-determined
repair facility of choice, take the
vehicle there, or have it towed there.
Specify to the facility that any
required replacement collision parts
be original equipment parts, either
new Genuine GM parts or recycled
original GM parts. Remember,
recycled parts will not be covered by
the GM vehicle warranty.
Insurance pays the bill for the repair,
but you must live with the repair.
Depending on your policy limits,
your insurance company may
initially value the repair using
aftermarket parts. Discuss this with
the repair professional, and insist on
Genuine GM parts. Remember,
if the vehicle is leased, you may be
obligated to have the vehicle
repaired with Genuine GM parts,
even if your insurance coverage
does not pay the full cost. If another party's insurance
company is paying for the repairs,
you are not obligated to accept a
repair valuation based on that
insurance company's collision policy
repair limits, as you have no
contractual limits with that company.
In such cases, you can have control
of the repair and parts choices as
long as the cost stays within
reasonable limits.

Vehicle Data
Recording and
Privacy
Your vehicle, like other modern
motor vehicles, has a number of
sophisticated computer systems that

of the vehicle performance. Your
vehicle uses onboard vehicle
computers to monitor emission
control components to optimize fuel
economy and to provide anti-lock
braking and to help the driver
control the vehicle in difficult driving
situations. These computers and
your vehicle's Data Recording
Module (DRM) also store
information about the performance
and status of certain systems in
your vehicle including the engine,
throttle, and braking systems.
General Motors and its affiliates, as
well as service and repair facilities
