EXTENDED PROTECTION FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What coverage levels does the Protection Plan offer?

There are two levels of coverage offered through the Protection Plan: Silver and Platinum. Silver provides basic component coverage, while Platinum also covers most mechanical and electrical components on your vehicle. See the Component Coverage and Additional Customer Benefits sections for more details on both plans. The Protection Plan also includes a number of time and mileage options you can choose from. For more information, see either New-Vehicle Plans or Used-Vehicle Plans.

What additional customer benefits are available under both the Silver and Platinum Protection Plan coverage levels?

Both the Silver and Platinum levels of the Protection Plan include the following additional customer benefits:

1. TOWING/ROAD SERVICE AND LOST KEY & LOCKOUT

If the vehicle becomes disabled or inoperable during the term of the plan, Towing/Road Service is available, up to $150 per occurrence. In the event the keys to the vehicle are lost, broken, or locked inside the vehicle during the term of the plan, Lost Key & Lockout Service is available, up to $35 per occurrence.

2. RENTAL VEHICLE REIMBURSEMENT

In the event that a mechanical breakdown of a covered component requires the vehicle be kept overnight by the dealership, you may rent a substitute vehicle from a licensed rental agency. Reimbursement under Silver and Platinum coverage provides for up to $40 per day and a maximum of $280 for each repair visit. In the event of a parts delay, you may receive up to 4 additional days at the rates specific to your coverage level.

3. EMERGENCY TRIP INTERRUPTION REIMBURSEMENT

If your vehicle becomes disabled more than 100 miles from your home, the plan will reimburse you for verifiable and receipted expenses you incur for food and accommodations for the first 4 consecutive days while the vehicle is being repaired up to a maximum of $200/day or a maximum of $800 per occurrence. Reimbursement for the purchase of alcoholic beverages will not be provided.

Where should I get my vehicle repaired?

During the term covered by your plan, you may have covered repairs completed at any Certified Service Center.

What deductible levels are available?

Deductible levels include $0, $100, and the Disappearing Deductible feature.

What is a Disappearing Deductible and how does it work?

The Disappearing Deductible option provides the ability to waive the $100 deductible when you return to the dealership where you purchased the plan for a repair covered under the plan. If you go to another dealership for a covered repair, you will have to pay the $100 deductible.

How does that differ from the One-Time Deductible?

A One-Time Deductible is paid if a covered part is repaired or replaced under the terms and conditions. You’ll only pay a deductible once for that part, since the deductible for future repair or replacement of the same part is waived.

How does this Protection Plan compare to the GM Certified Pre-Owned vehicle coverage?

The GM Certified Pre-Owned program provides a 12-Month/12,000-Mile (from date of purchase) Bumper-to-Bumper Limited Warranty, whichever comes first, along with 5-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty coverage from the new-vehicle in-service date, whichever comes first.

Every Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle comes with a transferable 5-Year/100,000-Mile Powertrain Limited Warranty, plus Roadside Assistance and Courtesy Transportation.

Both the New- and Used-vehicle Protection Plans can begin when the GM Certified Pre-Owned coverage expires, for whatever time and mileage option you choose to purchase. For more information, see the sections covering the New-Vehicle Plans, Used-Vehicle Plans, Component Coverage, and Additional Customer Benefits.

What is the Commercial Use Surcharge?

It provides your vehicle Protection Plan coverage if you intend to use your vehicle for activities such as job-site activities, deliveries, service calls, farming, ranching, route work, or snowplowing. The Commercial Use Surcharge is paid for at the time of contract application.

Yes, it excludes vehicles that are being or will be used for the following commercial uses: taxi, rental, limousine or shuttle service, towing/wrecker service, police or emergency service, dumping, cherry pickers, lifting or hoisting, racing, or competitive driving.

Is coverage under the Protection Plan transferrable to a subsequent owner?

Should you sell your covered vehicle to another individual, any remaining coverage under the New- or Used-vehicle Protection Plans may be transferred to the new owner prior to the plan’s expiration date. You must complete a Transfer Request form within 15 days of the transfer of ownership and pay the applicable fee to the administrator.
