GM Optimum Advantage

When you buy an Optimum Certified Used Vehicle, you'll get standard features you won't find anywhere else, like a manufacturer's backed warranty, a 150+ point inspection of the vehicle, an exchange privilege and 24-hour roadside assistance. When you think about it, buying an Optimum Certified Used Vehicle just makes sense.

Learn more about the Optimum Advantage by exploring the information below. Or download the full list of inspection points. You'll need the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader.

150+ Point Inspection

Each Optimum Certified Used Vehicle has been meticulously inspected by licensed mechanics before it reaches the sales floor. During the inspection process, each vehicle must pass a minimum of 150 points, ensuring that the vehicle is in excellent condition inside and out. Plus, regular maintenance is performed and faulty components are repaired or replaced.

A GM trained technician performs the following 150+ point inspection on every Optimum Certified Used Vehicle.


 


Manufacturer's Warranty

When shopping for a used vehicle, it's important to understand who's providing the warranty coverage to the vehicle you're considering. All Optimum vehicles come with warranty coverage backed by the manufacturer. A manufacturer's warranty ensures your vehicle will be serviced by qualified technicians who use factory-approved parts. This isn't always the case with third party aftermarket warranties sometimes offered in the used car industry.

All Optimum Used Vehicles feature a minimum of 3 months or 5,000 kilometres (whichever comes first) Used Vehicle Limited Warranty. And that's standard. If your budget permits, you can extend or upgrade to an even more comprehensive Optimum Used Vehicle Protection Plan. You'll also appreciate the convenience of being able to transfer any existing warranties to a new owner, should you ever decide to sell your Optimum Vehicle.

For complete coverage details see your General Motors Optimum Dealer.



24-hour Roadside Assistance

All Optimum Vehicles feature a minimum 3 months or 5,000 kilometres (whichever comes first) of 24-hour roadside assistance. That includes trip interruption coverage and trip routing service to help you quickly find your way.

You're covered if:

Your Optimum Vehicle is still within the manufacturer's New Vehicle Limited Warranty period, it's covered by GM Roadside Assistance.

Your manufacturer's warranty-covered non-GM vehicle does not offer a Roadside Assistance Program. General Motors will provide 3 months or 5,000 km, whichever comes first, of GM Roadside Assistance from the date of your Optimum Vehicle purchase.

Your Optimum Certified Used Vehicle has less than 3 months and 5,000 km of remaining Manufacturer's New Vehicle Limited Warranty. General Motors will provide an additional 3 months or 5,000 km, whichever comes first, of GM Roadside Assistance once your remaining Manufacturer's New Vehicle Limited Warranty expires.

To receive Roadside Assistance, simply call 1 800 268 6800 and a service operator will be dispatched to the scene. If your vehicle can't be repaired onsite, it will be towed to the nearest GM Dealership or GM authorized repair facility. If you need to pull your vehicle out of mud or snow, you're covered for winching service, up to $100 per occurrence.

If your vehicle is disabled and you are a minimum of 250 km from home, a Trip Interruption reimbursement allowance will be provided to help pay for:

  • Reasonable expenses (meals and lodging) up to a maximum of $195 per day and/or
  • Alternate transportation up to a combined maximum of $500 per incident

All Roadside Assistance Plans also include a no-charge Trip Routing Service, providing you with:

  • Suggested travel routes
  • Points of interest
  • Maps

Roadside Assistance and Trip Interruption coverage doesn't apply to:

  • Vehicles operated off-road
  • Fines or impound towing charges caused by a violation of local, municipal, Provincial or Federal law
  • The mounting, dismounting or changing of snow tires, chains or other traction devices
  • Disablement or services resulting from physical damage to your vehicle
  • Total or partial theft of your vehicle
  • Expenses that are covered under any other program





Exchange Privilege
Your satisfaction is important to us. If for any reason you're not completely satisfied with your Optimum Certified Used Vehicle, you may exchange it within the first 30 days or 2,500 kilometres, whichever comes first.

If, for any reason, you're not completely satisfied with your Optimum Used Vehicle you may exchange it within the first 30 days or 2,500 kilometers, whichever comes first, of the date of purchase for any other eligible Optimum Vehicle. 

If the purchase price of the replacement vehicle is less than the purchase price of the vehicle being returned, you'll receive credit for the difference. If the purchase price of the replacement vehicle is more, you simply pay the difference.
