I purchased a 2007 GM vehicle in March. Is my new vehicle eligible?
Yes. If you already purchased a 2007 GM vehicle, your new vehicle is automatically covered under our 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 in the next several weeks.


I have a 2006 GM vehicle with the exact same vehicle/powertrain as the 2007. Why isn't my vehicle eligible?
Unfortunately, the new extended powertrain warranty is available as a new feature on 2007 models only. However, you may want to contact your GM dealer to discuss the many GMPP products that can be tailored to include only the powertrain components.


When will I receive updated documentation to prove that I have the new powertrain warranty coverage on my 2007 GM vehicle?
A warranty booklet supplement to your glove box literature will be mailed to you in the next several weeks.


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 GM 100,000-Mile/5-year Limited Warranty impacts your GM Protection Plan Contract.


Do I have to take my vehicle to a GM dealer 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 serviced at a GM deal/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 your Owners Manual. Your owners 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 aid vehicle stability, particularly on slick surfaces or during emergency maneuvers.
