82 Instruments and Controls
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven since the trip
odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and reset
through the Driver Information Center (DIC).
SeeDriver Information Center (DIC) 099.
Battery Gauge (High Voltage)
Enhanced Battery Gauge
This displays the high voltage battery state
of charge. The value in the center is an
estimate of how far the vehicle can be
driven on the remaining charge based on
driving habits and conditions learned over
several days. The Max and Min values above and below
the display indicate the longest and shortest
possible range as estimated from current
vehicle conditions and climate settings.
The mileage estimate and Max and Min
numbers are affected by climate control
system usage. Estimated range may increase
or decrease based on changes in climate
control energy consumption.
A trend bar on the far left estimates how
recent driving habits, conditions, and climate
settings are affecting the range prediction.
When the high voltage battery state of
charge is very low, the estimated range
value in the center will change to Low. Max
and Min ranges will no longer be displayed.
Additional alerts may display and a sound
may also be heard at low state of charge.

Doing Your Own Service Work
{Warning
Never try to do your own service on high
voltage battery components. You can be
injured and the vehicle can be damaged if
you try to do your own service work.
Service and repair of these high voltage
battery components should only be
performed by a trained dealer technician
with the proper knowledge and tools.
Exposure to high voltage can cause shock,
burns, and even death. The high voltage
components in the vehicle can only be
serviced by technicians with special
training.
High voltage components are identified
by labels. Do not remove, open, take
apart, or modify these components. High
voltage cable or wiring has orange
covering. Do not probe, tamper with, cut,
or modify high voltage cable or wiring.
{Warning
It can be dangerous to work on your
vehicle if you do not have the proper
knowledge, service manual, tools,
or parts. Always follow owner’s manual
procedures and consult the service
manual for your vehicle before doing any
service work.
If doing some of your own service work, use
the proper service manual. It tells you much
more about how to service the vehicle than
this manual can. To order the proper service
manual, see Publication Ordering
Information 0270.
This vehicle has an airbag system. Before
attempting to do your own service work,

towel to avoid direct skin contact.
Clear any snow from the hood before
opening.
To open the hood: 1. Pull the hood release lever with the

Customer Information
Customer Satisfaction Procedure
Your satisfaction and goodwill are important
to your dealer and to Chevrolet. Normally,
any concerns with the sales transaction or
the operation of the 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 dealership 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 your
dealership or the general manager.
STEP TWO : If after contacting a member of
dealership management, it appears your
concern cannot be resolved by your
dealership without further help, in the U.S.,
call the Chevrolet Customer Assistance
Center at 1-800-222-1020. In Canada, call
General Motors of Canada Customer Care
Centre at 1-800-263-3777 (English),
or 1-800-263-7854 (French). 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:
.Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). This is
available from the vehicle registration or
title, or the plate at the top left of the
instrument panel and visible through the
windshield.
.Dealership name and location.
.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
following Step One first.
STEP THREE —U.S. Owners : Both General
Motors and your 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 your rights.
The BBB Auto Line Program is an
out-of-court program administered by BBB
National Programs, Inc. to settle automotive

14637856) - 2021 - CRC - 10/2/20
264 Customer Information
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.
You may contact the BBB Auto Line Program
using the toll-free telephone number or
write them at the following address:

This program is available in all 50 states and
the District of Columbia. Eligibility is limited
by vehicle age, mileage, and other factors.
General Motors reserves the right to change
eligibility limitations and/or discontinue its
participation in this program.STEP THREE
—Canadian Owners : In the
event that you do not feel your concerns
have been addressed after following the
procedure outlined in Steps One and Two,
General Motors of Canada Company wants
you to be aware of its participation in a
no-charge Mediation/Arbitration Program.
General Motors of Canada Company has
committed to binding arbitration of owner
disputes involving factory-related vehicle
service claims. The program provides for the
review of the facts involved by an impartial
third party arbiter, and may include an
informal hearing before the arbiter. The
program is designed so that the entire
dispute settlement process, from the time
you file your complaint to the final decision,
should be completed in about 70 days. We
believe our impartial program offers
advantages over courts in most jurisdictions
because it is informal, quick, and free of
charge.

in the Canadian Motor Vehicle Arbitration
Plan (CAMVAP), call toll-free 1-800-207-0685,
or call the General Motors Customer Care
Centre, 1-800-263-3777 (English),

Owner Assistance Information”furnished
with each new vehicle provides detailed
warranty coverage information.
Transportation Options
Warranty service can generally be
completed while you wait. However, if you
are unable to do so, your dealer may offer
the following transportation options:
Shuttle Service
This includes one-way or round-trip shuttle
service within reasonable time and distance
parameters of your dealer's area.
Public Transportation or Fuel Reimbursement
If overnight warranty repairs are needed,
and public transportation is used, the
expense must be supported by original
receipts and within the maximum amount
allowed by GM. If U.S. customers arrange
their own transportation, limited
reimbursement for reasonable fuel expenses
may be available. Claim amounts should
reflect actual costs and be supported by
original receipts. See your dealer for
information. Courtesy Rental Vehicle
For an overnight warranty repair, the dealer
may provide an available courtesy rental
vehicle or provide for reimbursement of a
rental vehicle. Reimbursement is limited and
must be supported by original receipts as
well as a signed and completed rental
agreement and meet state/provincial, local,
and rental vehicle provider requirements.
Requirements vary and may include
minimum age requirements, insurance
coverage, credit card, etc. Additional fees
such as fuel, rental vehicle insurance, taxes,
levies, usage fees, excessive mileage,
or rental usage beyond the completion of
the repair are also your responsibility.
It may not be possible to provide a like
vehicle as a courtesy rental.
Additional Program Information
All program options, such as shuttle service,
may not be available at every dealer.
Contact your dealer for specific availability.
General Motors reserves the right to
unilaterally modify, change, or discontinue
Courtesy Transportation at any time and to
resolve all questions of claim eligibility
pursuant to the terms and conditions
described herein at its sole discretion.
Collision Damage Repair
If the vehicle is involved in a collision and it
is damaged, have the damage repaired by a
qualified technician using the proper
equipment and quality replacement parts.
Poorly performed collision repairs diminish
the vehicle resale value, and safety
performance can be compromised in
subsequent collisions.
Collision Parts
Genuine GM Collision parts are new parts
made with the same materials and
construction methods as the parts with
which the vehicle was originally built.
Genuine GM Collision parts are the best
choice to ensure that the vehicle's designed
appearance, durability, and safety are
preserved. The use of Genuine GM parts can
help maintain the GM New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Recycled original equipment parts may also
be used for repair. These parts are typically
removed from vehicles that were total losses
in prior crashes. In most cases, the parts
being recycled are from undamaged sections
of the vehicle. A recycled original equipment
GM part may be an acceptable choice to
maintain the vehicle's originally designed
