GM Canada yesterday announced industry-leading coverage, featuring extended powertrain protection with coverage up to 160,000 kilometres or five years, courtesy transportation and roadside assistance, that has no deductible and is fully transferable, across its entire car and light duty truck model line in Canada.
“Today’s announcement is the next step in GM’s North American turnaround plan and follows from our successful 10 year focus on achieving industry-leading quality and durability for our cars and trucks,” said Arturo Elias, president of General Motors of Canada.
“Now, we want to share this new level of confidence with our customers by providing the best coverage in the industry including warranty, roadside assistance, courtesy transportation and the peace of mind that GM’s OnStar system can deliver.”
The industry-leading coverage includes a no-deductible, fully-transferable expanded powertrain protection plan covering Canadian 2007 model year Cadillac, Chevrolet, Buick, GMC, HUMMER, Pontiac, Saab and Saturn vehicles.
GM will extend the existing roadside assistance plan and courtesy transportation program to up to 160,000 kilometres or five years for powertrain issues.
“This coverage is a reflection of the hard work of our employees, unions, dealers and suppliers, to achieve high quality standards in GM vehicles,
including the vehicles, engines and transmissions manufactured in Canada.
This recognition for quality brings our customers a new level of confidence in GM vehicles,” adds Elias.
GM’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty remains unchanged: four years/80,000 kilometres for Buick, Cadillac, HUMMER and Saab vehicles; and three years/60,000 kilometres for Chevrolet, GMC, Pontiac and Saturn vehicles.
Headquartered in Oshawa Ontario, General Motors of Canada employs more than 20,000 people nationwide.
GM of Canada manufactures a variety of vehicles, engines, transmissions and other components, and markets the full range of General Motors vehicles and related services through 765 dealerships and retailers across Canada.
