Chevy offers money-back guarantee on new vehicles

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.

Wait just a bit longer, there’s a sport version of the Focus coming soon, perhaps with a 300hp turbo engine but with excellent fuel economy.

If they aren't satisfied with the vehicle, GM the tax payers will refund their money.

There fixed it.

I used to be a satisfied GM customer, but now they make me sick. If they had gone with a normal Chapter 11, I would have gladly supported them with my next purchase. Now, I never want to see the inside of another GM dealership.

Once a car is titled, it cannot be sold as new or even as a demo.

If we saw anything from the way Obama and GM screwed their bond holders, it's that laws won't stop them from doing what they want to do.

Point taken, but this really is a State issue and I doubt that most States are in the mood for that kind of garbage.

They say no damage and no more than 4000 miles. But do they say anything about having any tread left on the tires?
