Who Is Covered?

Roadside Service coverage is for the vehicle operator, regardless of ownership. In Canada, a person driving this vehicle without the consent of the owner is not eligible for coverage.

Cadillac Owner Privileges™

The following services are provided in the U.S. and Canada up to 5 years/100,000 miles (160 000 km), whichever occurs first, and, in Canada only, up to a maximum coverage of $100. These services are provided at a nominal charge if the vehicle is no longer within the Powertrain warranty.

Roadside Service provides several Cadillac Owner Privileges™ at "no charge," throughout your Cadillac Powertrain Warranty -- 5 years/100,000 miles (160 000 km).

Emergency Road Service is performed on site for the following situations:

    • Fuel Delivery: Delivery of enough fuel for the vehicle to get to the nearest service station (approximately $5 in Canada). In Canada, for safety reasons, propane and other alternative fuels will not be provided through this service.
    • Lock-out Service: Lock-out service will be covered at no charge if you are unable to gain entry into your vehicle. A remote unlock may be available if you have an active OnStar® subscription. To ensure security, the driver must present personal identification before lock-out service is provided. In Canada, the vehicle registration is also required.
    • Emergency Tow From a Public Roadway or Highway:Tow to the nearest dealership for warranty service or in the event of a vehicle-disabling crash. Winch-out assistance is provided when the vehicle is mired in sand, mud, or snow.
    • Flat Tire Change: Installation of a spare tire in good condition, when equipped and properly inflated, is covered at no charge. The customer is responsible for the repair or replacement of the tire if not covered by a warrantable failure.
    • Jump Start: A battery jump start is covered at no charge if the vehicle does not start.
    • Trip Routing Service: Upon request, Cadillac Roadside Service will send you detailed, computer personalized maps, highlighting your choice of either the most direct route or the most scenic route to your destination, anywhere in North America, along with helpful travel information pertaining to your trip.
        Please allow three weeks before your planned departure date. In Canada, trip routing requests will be limited to six per calendar year.
    • Trip Interruption Benefits and Assistance: If your trip is interrupted due to a warranty failure, incidental expenses may be reimbursed during the 60 months/100,000 miles (160 000 km) warranty period. Items covered are hotel, meals, and rental car.
    • Alternative Service (Canada only): There may be times when Roadside Service cannot provide timely assistance. Your advisor may authorize you to secure local emergency road service, and you will be reimbursed up to $100 upon submission of the original receipt to Cadillac Roadside Service.

Cadillac and General Motors of Canada Limited reserve the right to limit services or reimbursement to an owner or driver when, in their sole discretion, the claims become excessive in frequency or type of occurrence.

Cadillac Technician Roadside Service (U.S. only)

Cadillac's exceptional Roadside Service is more than an auto club or towing service. It provides every Cadillac owner in the United States with the advantage of contacting a Cadillac advisor and, where available, a Cadillac trained dealer technician who can provide on-site service.

A dealer technician will travel to your location within a 30 mile radius of a participating Cadillac dealership. If beyond this radius, we will arrange to have your car towed to the nearest Cadillac dealership. Each technician travels with a specially equipped service vehicle complete with the necessary Cadillac parts and tools required to handle most roadside repairs.

Calling for Assistance

For prompt and efficient assistance when calling, please provide the following to the Roadside Service Representative:

    • Your name, home address, and home telephone number
    • Telephone number of your location
    • Location of the vehicle
    • Model, year, color, and license plate number of the vehicle
    • Odometer reading, Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), and delivery date of the vehicle
    • Description of the problem
