- There are no deductibles for covered repairs.

- I purchased a 2007 GM vehicle in March. Is my new vehicle eligible?
- Yes. If you already purchased a 2007 GM passenger car or light duty truck, your new vehicle is automatically covered under our new 100,000-Mile/5-year powertrain limited warranty* at no extra cost. You will receive an updated warranty booklet insert for your glove box literature within the next several weeks. Your GM dealer can confirm this coverage in the GMVIS (GM Vehicle Inquiry System).
- My 2007 Chevrolet Silverado has a DuraMax Diesel Engine. How does this announcement affect my Duramax diesel powertrain warranty?

- When will I receive updated documentation to prove that I have the new powertrain warranty coverage on my 2007 GM vehicle?

- I noticed in your recent announcement that the powertrain warranty on my new Tahoe is transferable at no charge. How does a customer transfer the warranty?
- There is no transfer required. Regardless of ownership, the powertrain limited warranty stays with your 2007 GM light duty vehicle for 5 years or 100,000 miles (whichever comes first).
- I purchased a GMPP extended warranty prior to the announcement of GM extending coverage and want my money back. How do I apply for reimbursement?
- Because you have also purchased a GM Protection Plan Vehicle Service Contract, our GM Protection Plan team will be contacting you by mail shortly with additional details on how the new Chevy/GMC 100,000-Mile/5 Year Powertrain Limited Warranty impacts your GM Protection Plan Contract.
- Do I have to take my vehicle to a GM dealer/retailer for maintenance to maintain my extended powertrain eligibility?
- GM dealer/retailers have the specialized training and GM genuine parts and accessories to ensure your vehicle is repaired and maintained properly. Although you are not required to have your vehicle maintained at a GM dealer/retailership, we highly recommend that you do. In addition, we encourage you to keep detailed records and receipts of your maintenance history.
- Does the required maintenance of my vehicle change as a result of this new powertrain limited warranty?
- As a vehicle owner, you are responsible for the performance of the scheduled maintenance listed in you Owner's Manual throughout the warranty period. Your owner's manual provides a detailed maintenance schedule that you should follow for your specific vehicle and driving habits. In addition, we strongly encourage you to keep detailed records and receipts of your maintenance history.
- Can I purchase this extra powertrain coverage for my 2006 (and prior) vehicle?
- You may be eligible to choose from one of our GMPP offerings which can be tailored to meet your needs — including extended powertrain coverage. Please contact your selling dealer/retailership for details on the various GM Protection Plan programs.

- What does StabiliTrak® do?
- StabiliTrak is an electronic stability control system that's designed to help improve vehicle stability, particularly during emergency maneuvers.
