exists. The warranted repairs should
be completed in a reasonable

22 Emission Warranty Parts List
Maintenance and Repairs
Maintenance and repairs can be
performed by any qualified service
outlet; however, warranty repairs
must be performed by an authorized
Chevrolet Low Cab Forward Truck
dealer except in a situation where
the vehicle owner is significantly
inconvenienced and when a
warranted part or a warranty station
is not reasonably available to the
vehicle owner.
In a situation where the vehicle
owner is significantly
inconvenienced, and an authorized
Chevrolet Low Cab Forward Truck
dealer is not reasonably available,
repairs may be performed at any
available service establishment or
by the owner, using any
replacement part. Chevrolet will
consider reimbursement for the
expense incurred, including
diagnosis, not to exceed the
manufacturer's suggested retail
price for all warranted parts
replaced and labor charges based
on Chevrolet's recommended time
allowance for the warranty repairand the geographically appropriate
labor rate. A part not being available
within 10 days or a repair not being
completed within 30 days
constitutes a significant
inconvenience. Retain receipts and
failed parts in order to receive
compensation for warranty repairs
reimbursable due to these
situations.
If you are in a situation where you
are significantly inconvenienced,
and it is necessary to have repairs
performed by other than a Chevrolet
Low Cab Forward Truck dealer and
you believe the repairs are covered
by emission warranties, take the
replaced parts and your receipt to a
Chevrolet Low Cab Forward dealer
for reimbursement consideration.
This applies to both the Federal
Emission Defect Warranty and
Federal Emission Performance
Warranty.
Receipts and records covering the
performance of regular maintenance
or other repairs (such as those
outlined earlier) should be retained
in the event questions arise
concerning maintenance. These
receipts and records should be
transferred to each subsequent
owner. Chevrolet will not deny
warranty coverage solely on the
absence of maintenance records.
However, Chevrolet may deny a
warranty claim if a failure to perform
scheduled maintenance resulted in
the failure of a warranty part.
Claims Procedure
As with the other warranties
covered in this booklet, take your
vehicle to any authorized Chevrolet
Low Cab Forward dealer facility to
obtain service under the emission
warranty. This should be done as
soon as possible after failing an
EPA-approved I/M test or a
California smog check test, or at
any time you suspect a defect in
a part.
Those repairs qualifying under the
warranty will be performed by any
Chevrolet Low Cab Forward dealer
at no charge. Repairs which do not
qualify will be charged to you. You
will be notified as to whether or not

24 Customer Satisfaction Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are
important to your Chevrolet Low
Cab Forward dealer and to
Chevrolet. Normally, any concerns
with the sales transaction or the
operation of your vehicle will be
resolved by your dealer's sales or
service departments. Sometimes,
however, despite the best intentions
of all concerned, misunderstandings
can occur. If your concern has not
been resolved to your satisfaction,
the following steps should be taken:
STEP ONE : Discuss your
concern with a member of dealer
management.Normally, concerns
can be quickly resolved at that level.
If the matter has already been
reviewed with the sales, service,
or parts manager, contact the
owner of the dealer facility or the
general manager.
STEP TWO : If after contacting a
member of dealer management, it
appears your concern cannot be
resolved by the dealer without
further help contact the Chevrolet
Customer Assistance Center by
calling 1-800-862-4389. We encourage you to call the
toll-free number in order to give
your inquiry prompt attention.
Have the following information
available to give the Customer
Assistance Representative:
.
The Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN). This is available
from the vehicle registration or
title, or the plate above the top of
the instrument panel on the
driver side, and visible through
the windshield.
. The dealer name and location.
. The vehicle delivery date and
present mileage.
When contacting Chevrolet,
remember that your concern will
likely be resolved at a dealer's
facility. That is why we suggest you
follow Step One first if you have a
concern. STEP THREE :
Both Chevrolet and
your Chevrolet Low Cab Forward
dealer are committed to making
sure you are completely satisfied
with your new vehicle. However,
if you continue to remain unsatisfied
after following the procedure
outlined in Steps One and Two, you
can file with the Better Business
Bureau (BBB) Auto Line Program to
enforce any additional rights you
may have.
The BBB Auto Line Program is an
out of court program administered
by the Council of Better Business
Bureaus to settle automotive
disputes regarding vehicle repairs or
the interpretation of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. Although you may
be required to resort to this informal
dispute resolution program prior to
filing a court action, use of the
program is free of charge and your
case will generally be heard within
40 days. If you do not agree with
the decision given in your case, you
may reject it and proceed with any
other venue for relief available
to you.
