and, where available, a Cadillac
trained dealer technician who

radius, we will arrange to have
your car towed to the nearest
Cadillac dealership. Each
technician travels with a
specially equipped service
vehicle complete with the
necessary Cadillac parts and
tools required to handle most
roadside repairs.

Scheduling Service
Appointments
When the vehicle requires
warranty service, contact your
dealer and request an
appointment. By scheduling a
service appointment and
advising the service
consultant of your
transportation needs, your
dealer can help minimize your
inconvenience. If the vehicle cannot be
scheduled into the service
department immediately, keep
driving it until it can be
scheduled for service, unless,
of course, the problem is
safety related. If it is, please
call your dealership, let them
know this, and ask for
instructions.
If your dealer requests you to
bring the vehicle for service,
you are urged to do so as
early in the work day as
possible to allow for same-day
repair.
Courtesy
Transportation
Program
To enhance your ownership
experience, we and our
participating dealers are proud
to offer Courtesy
Transportation, a customer
support program for vehicles
with the Bumper-to-Bumper
(Base Warranty Coverage
period in Canada), FederalEmission, Extended
Powertrain or Electric specific
warranties in both the U.S. and
Canada.
Several Courtesy
Transportation options are
available to assist in reducing
inconvenience when warranty
repairs are required.
Courtesy Transportation is
not a part of the New Vehicle
Limited Warranty. A separate
manual entitled
“Limited
Warranty and Owner
Assistance Information”
produced for new vehicles
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:

Cadillac CT5 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-16500419) -
2023 - CRC - 5/6/22
Customer Information 493
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 maintainthe vehicle's originally
designed appearance and
safety performance; however,
the history of these parts is
not known. Such parts are not
covered by the GM New
Vehicle Limited Warranty, and
any related failures are not
covered by that warranty.
Aftermarket collision parts are
also available. These are made
by companies other than GM
and may not have been tested
for the vehicle. As a result,
these parts may fit poorly,
exhibit premature durability/
corrosion problems, and may
not perform properly in
subsequent collisions.
Aftermarket parts are not
covered by the GM New
Vehicle Limited Warranty, and
any vehicle failure related to
such parts is not covered by
that warranty.
Repair Facility
GM also recommends that you
choose a collision repair
facility that meets your needsbefore you ever need collision
repairs. Your dealer may have
a collision repair center with
GM-trained technicians and
state-of-the-art equipment,
or be able to recommend a
collision repair center that has
GM-trained technicians and
comparable equipment.
Insuring the Vehicle
Protect your investment in the
GM vehicle with
comprehensive and collision
insurance coverage. There are
significant differences in the
quality of coverage afforded
by various insurance policy
terms. Many insurance policies
provide reduced protection to
the GM vehicle by limiting
compensation for damage
repairs by using aftermarket
collision parts. Some insurance
companies will not specify
aftermarket collision parts.
When purchasing insurance,
we recommend that you
ensure that the vehicle will be
repaired with GM original

Cadillac CT5 Owner Manual (GMNA-Localizing-U.S./Canada-16500419) -

Customer Information 495
equipment collision parts.
If such insurance coverage is
not available from your
current insurance carrier,
consider switching to another
insurance carrier.
If the vehicle is leased, the
leasing company may require
you to have insurance that
ensures repairs with Genuine
GM Original Equipment
Manufacturer (OEM) parts or
Genuine Manufacturer
replacement parts. Read the
lease carefully, as you may be
charged at the end of the
lease for poor quality repairs.
If a Crash Occurs
If there has been an injury, call
emergency services for help.
Do not leave the scene of a
crash until all matters have
been taken care of. Move the
vehicle only if its position puts
you in danger, or you are
instructed to move it by a
police officer.Give only the necessary
information to police and other
parties involved in the crash.

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
