STEP THREE (Canadian Owners):
General Motors Participation in
the Mediation/Arbitration Program
In the event that you do not feel
your concerns have been addressed
after following the procedure
outlined in Steps 1 and 2, General
Motors of Canada Limited has
committed to binding arbitration of
owner disputes involving
factory-related vehicle service
claims. The program provides for
the review of the facts involved
by an impartial third party arbiter,
and may include an informal hearing
before the arbiter. The program is
designed so that the entire
dispute settlement process, from the
time you file your complaint to the
final decision, should be completed
in approximately 70 days. We
believe our impartial program offers
advantages over courts in most
jurisdictions because it is informal,
quick, and free of charge.
For further information concerning
eligibility in the Canadian Motor
Vehicle Arbitration Plan (CAMVAP),
