Parts specified in your maintenanceschedule that require scheduledreplacement are covered up to theirfirst replacement interval or theapplicable emission warrantycoverage period, whichever comesfirst. If failure of one of these partsresults in failure of another part,both will be covered under theEmission Control System Warranty.

For detailed information concerningspecific parts covered by theseemission control system warranties,ask your dealer.

Replacement Parts

The emission control systems ofyour vehicle were designed, built,and tested using genuine GM parts*and the vehicle is certified as beingin conformity with applicable federaland California emissionrequirements. Accordingly, it isrecommended that anyreplacement parts used for

maintenance or for the repair ofemission control systems be new,genuine GM parts.

The warranty obligations are notdependent upon the use of anyparticular brand of replacementparts. The owner may elect to usenon-genuine GM parts forreplacement purposes. Use ofreplacement parts which are not ofequivalent quality may impair theeffectiveness of emission controlsystems.

If other than new, genuine GM partsare used for maintenancereplacements or for the repair ofparts affecting emission control, theowner should assure himself/herselfthat such parts are warranted bytheir manufacturer to be equivalentto genuine GM parts in performanceand durability.

* “Genuine GM parts,” when used inconnection with GM vehicles,means parts manufactured by or forGM, designed for use on GMvehicles, and distributed by anydivision or subsidiary of GM.



Maintenance and Repairs

Maintenance and repairs can beperformed by any qualified serviceoutlet; however, warranty repairsmust be performed by an authorizeddealer except in a situation wherethe vehicle owner is significantlyinconvenienced and a warrantedpart or a warranty station is notreasonably available to the vehicleowner.

In a situation where the vehicleowner is significantlyinconvenienced, and an authorizeddealer is not reasonably available,repairs may be performed at anyavailable service establishment orby the owner, using anyreplacement part. Cadillac willconsider reimbursement for theexpense incurred, includingdiagnosis, not to exceed themanufacturer's suggested retailprice for all warranted partsreplaced and labor charges basedon Cadillac's recommended timeallowance for the warranty repairand the geographically appropriatelabor rate. A part not being availablewithin 10 days or a repair not being

completed within 30 daysconstitutes a significantinconvenience. Retain receipts andfailed parts in order to receivecompensation for warranty repairsreimbursable due to thesesituations.

If you are in a situation where youare significantly inconvenienced andit is necessary to have repairsperformed by other than a Cadillacdealer and you believe the repairsare covered by emission warranties,take the replaced parts and yourreceipt to a Cadillac dealer forreimbursement consideration. Thisapplies to both the FederalEmission Defect Warranty andFederal Emission PerformanceWarranty.

Receipts and records covering theperformance of regular maintenanceor other repairs (such as thoseoutlined earlier) should be retainedin the event questions ariseconcerning maintenance. Thesereceipts and records should betransferred to each subsequentowner. GM will not deny warrantycoverage solely on the absence of

maintenance records. However, GMmay deny a warranty claim if afailure to perform scheduledmaintenance resulted in the failureof a warranty part.

Claims Procedure

As with the other warrantiescovered in this booklet, take yourvehicle to any authorized Cadillacdealer facility to obtain serviceunder the emission warranty. Thisshould be done as soon as possibleafter failing an EPA-approved I/Mtest or a California smog check test,or at any time you suspect a defectin a part.

Those repairs qualifying under thewarranty will be performed by anyCadillac dealer at no charge.Repairs which do not qualify will becharged to you. You will be notifiedas to whether or not the repairqualifies under the warranty within areasonable time, not to exceed30 days after receipt of the vehicleby the dealer, or within the timeperiod required by local or state law.



The only exceptions would be if yourequest or agree to an extension,or if a delay results from eventsbeyond the control of your dealer orGM. If you are not so notified, GMwill provide any required repairs atno charge.
