Buick 2007 LaCrosse Owner's Manual page 492

If your vehicle is leased, the leasing company may
require you to have insurance that assures repairs
with Genuine GM Original Equipment Manufacturer
(OEM) parts or Genuine Manufacturer replacement
parts. Read your lease carefully, as you may be
charged at the end of your lease for poor quality
repairs.
If an Accident Occurs
Here is what to do if you are involved in an
accident.
•
Try to relax and then check to make sure you
are all right. If you are uninjured, make sure that
no one else in your vehicle, or the other vehicle,
is injured.
•
If there has been an injury, call 911 for help. Do
not leave the scene of an accident until all
matters have been taken care of. Move your
vehicle only if its position puts you in danger or
you are instructed to move it by a police officer.
•
Give only the necessary and requested
information to police and other parties involved
in the accident. Do not discuss your personal
condition, mental frame of mind, or anything
unrelated to the accident. This will help guard
against post-accident legal action.

•
If you need roadside assistance, call GM
Roadside Assistance. See Roadside
Assistance Program on page 484 for more
information.
•
If your vehicle cannot be driven, know where
the towing service will be taking it. Get a card
from the tow truck operator or write down the
driver's name, the service's name, and the
phone number.
•
Remove any valuables from your vehicle before
it is towed away. Make sure this includes your
insurance information and registration if you
keep these items in your vehicle.
•
Gather the important information you will need
from the other driver. Things like name,
address, phone number, driver's license
number, vehicle license plate, vehicle make,
model and model year, Vehicle Identification
Number (VIN), insurance company and policy
number, and a general description of the
damage to the other vehicle.
