Warranty
In the event Saturn accessories are installed after
vehicle delivery, or are replaced under the new vehicle
warranty, they will be covered, parts and labor, for
the balance of the vehicle warranty, but in no event less
than 12 months/12,000 miles. This coverage is only
effective for Saturn accessories permanently installed by
a Saturn retailer or an associated Saturn-approved
Accessory Distributor/Installer (ADI).
Saturn accessories sold over-the-counter, or those not
requiring installation, will continue to receive the
standard Saturn Retailer Parts Warranty of 12 months
from the date of purchase, parts only.
Saturn Licensed Accessories are covered under the
accessory-specific manufacturer’s warranty and are not
warranted by Saturn or its retailers.
Notice: This warranty excludes:
Any communications device that becomes unusable
or unable to function as intended due to
unavailability of compatible wireless service from
the wireless communication carrier that provides
service for the OnStar
®
system.

rust-through as follows:
Corrosion: Body sheet metal panels are covered

comes first.
Rust-Through: Any body sheet metal panel that rusts
through, an actual hole in the sheet metal, is covered for
up to 6 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first.
Important: Cosmetic or surface corrosion, resulting
from stone chips or scratches in the paint, for example,
is not included in sheet metal coverage.
Towing

your vehicle cannot be driven because of a warranted
