GM PARTICIPATION IN BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU
MEDIATION/ARBITRATION PROGRAM*
Both Cadillac Motor Car Division and your Cadillac dealer are committed to
making sure you are completely satisfied with your new vehicle. If a situation
arises where you feel your concern has not been adequately addressed, our
experience has shown that the Customer Satisfaction Procedure described on
Page 1 is very successful.
There may be instances where an impartial third-party can assist in arriving at a
solution to a disagreement regarding vehicle repairs or interpretation of the New
Vehicle Limited Warranty. To assist in resolving these disagreements, Cadillac
voluntarily participates in BBB AUTO LINE.
BBB AUTO LINE is an out-of-court
program administered by the Better
Business Bureau system to settle disputes between customers and automobile
manufacturers. This program is available
free of charge to customers who own or
lease a GM vehicle.
If you are not satisfied after following the Customer Satisfaction Procedure, you
may contact the BBB using the toll-free telephone number or the address listed
below:
BBB AUTO LINE
Council of Better Business Bureaus
4200
Wilson Boulevard
Suite
800
Arlington, Virginia 22203
Telephone
1-800-955-5100
To file a claim, you will be asked to provide your name and address, your Vehicle
Identification Number (VIN), and a statement of the nature of your complaint.
Eligibility is limited by vehicle age and mileage, and other factors.
We prefer that you utilize the Customer Satisfaction Procedure before you resort
to AUTO LINE, but you may contact the BBB at any time. The BBB will attempt
to resolve the complaint by serving as an intermediary between you and Cadillac.
If this mediation is unsuccessful, an informal hearing will be scheduled where
eligible customers may present their case to an impartial third-party arbitrator.
The arbitrator will make a decision which you may accept or reject. If you accept
the decision, GM will be bound by that decision. The entire dispute resolution
procedure should ordinarily take about forty days from the time you file a claim
until a decision is made.
Some state laws may require you to use this program before filing a claim with a
state-run arbitration program or in the courts. For further information, contact
the BBB or the Cadillac Consumer Relations Center.
NOTE:
This program may not be available
in all states, depending on state law.
General Motors reserves the right
to change eligibility limitations
andor to
discontinue its participation in this program.
