- Q.
What does the bumper-to-bumper warranty cover?
- A.
The bumper-to-bumper New Vehicle Limited Warranty covers vehicles registered in the U.S. and Canada from the date the vehicle is first delivered until it reaches four years or 50,000 miles (whichever occurs first). It covers the vehicle from bumper to bumper on any vehicle defect related to materials or workmanship. For further details, look in the Owner's Manual under "What Is Covered" and "What Is Not Covered."
- Q.
Is my vehicle covered from rust, too?
- A.
Cadillac vehicles are designed and built to resist corrosion. All body and sheet metal components are warranted against rust-through corrosion for 6 years/100,000 miles (whichever comes first). Application of additional rust-inhibiting materials is neither necessary nor required under the Sheet Metal Coverage. Cadillac makes no recommendations concerning the usefulness or value of such products. Application of after-manufacture rustproofing products may create an environment which reduces the corrosion resistance built into your vehicle. Repairs to correct damage caused by such applications are not covered under your New Vehicle Limited Warranty. See your Cadillac dealer for terms of this limited warranty.
- Q.
Do I have to go the Cadillac dealer where I purchased my vehicle to have this type of work performed?
- A.
While most customers prefer to have this type of work performed at their selling dealer, it can be performed at any Cadillac dealership.
- Q.
Can I take my Cadillac to any GM dealership for warranty repairs?
- A.
These repairs must be performed by an Authorized Cadillac dealer, except in an emergency situation when a covered part or a Cadillac dealer is not reasonably available to the vehicle owner. It's in your best interest to take your Cadillac vehicle to a Cadillac dealer for all repairs since they are the most knowledgeable about the particulars of your vehicle.
- Q.
Does GM offer or endorse any service contracts for new or used vehicles?
- A.
Yes, the GM Protection Plan (GMPP) vehicle service and maintenance contracts and the Saturn Service Protection Plan (SSPP) are the only products endorsed by General Motors and are available through most GM dealers or Saturn retailers.
