Chevy offers money-back guarantee on new vehicles
Seattle Post Intelligencer ^ | July 12, 2012

DETROIT (AP) — Chevrolet is trying to pull more customers into its dealerships by offering a money-back guarantee on new cars and trucks.

The General Motors brand said Tuesday that buyers can get refunds if they return their 2012 or 2013 vehicles for any reason. The guarantee lasts for up to 60 days from the date of purchase.

Chevy Marketing Chief Chris Perry says research shows that customers like it when companies show confidence in their cars and trucks.

Customers pay a set price equal to the discount GM offers to parts supply companies, including incentives. If they aren't satisfied with the vehicle, GM will refund their money.

Returned vehicles can't have more than 4,000 miles on them and they can't be damaged.

The offer ends on Sept. 4.

During the first half of the year, Chevy sales grew 6.3 percent to almost 962,000 cars and trucks. But the brand is growing at less than half the rate of overall U.S. auto sales. The total U.S. auto market grew almost 15 percent from January through June. Chevy is by far GM's most important brand. In the U.S., it accounts for more than 73 percent of the company's sales, according to Autodata Corp.

GM might try something new: building a quality vehicle.

I’m still waiting for them to repair all the Obama-quality junk they fosted on me during the malaise years.

Shove it up your smelly septic collective Obamas, GM and UAW.

Never again will one of your products disgrace my driveway.

Husband and I have vowed NEVER to purchase anything from GM again. We are actively searching for a new vehicle....and will not even look at GM.

We ARE looking at Ford.

So, if I buy one today, I return it in 59 days, and buy another one.

I return it in 59 days, and buy another one.

I return it in 59 days, and buy another one.

A bit of a hassle, but it’s a free car for life !!!

Good luck trying to return one. They’ll put you through so much rigamarole that you’ll never buy another GM vehicle the rest of your life. Might as well not bothe buying one in the first place.
