Gm to Sell More Xm-equipped Certified Pre-owned Vehicles in 2008

General Motors together with the nation’s leading satellite radio service has recently launched a satellite radio trial program for GM Certified Used Vehicles, Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles, and HUMMER Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles. The XM trail program is available to buyers of both new and certified used vehicles. The XM will also be made available in more than 115,000 of these certified GM vehicles in 2007 which is expected to increase to more than 168,000 vehicles in 2008.

Under this program, all GM Certified Used Vehicles that include Chevrolet, Pontiac, Buick, GMC, Oldsmobile models, Cadillac, and Hummer Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles equipped with XM Radio will also be available with three trial months of XM service and a waived of activation fee. A list of previous model year Chevrolet, Pontiac, Buick, GMC, Oldsmobile, Cadillac, and Hummer vehicles factory equipped with XM are available online.

GM is the producer of high quality GMC throttle body spacer and one of the largest automakers in the nation. It is also the industry leader in manufacturer-certified used vehicle sales, which represents almost one-third of the total volume of all certified used vehicles sold in the US. General Motors Certified Used Vehicles has been the top selling certified used vehicle brand for the last five years according to Autodata Corp.

GM Certified Used Vehicles, the nation’s number one selling manufacturer-certified brand, reconditioned vehicles of very high quality and are offered at participating Buick, Chevrolet, Pontiac, and GMC dealers. Most of the models are six years older or much newer and have run only 60,000 miles or less. These vehicles have undergone strict GM Certified Used Vehicles standards and have undergone a rigorous 117-point inspection and reconditioning process.

All GM Certified Used Vehicles are supported by a fully transferable 5-year, 100,000-mile powertrain limited warranty with no deductible, three-month/3,000 mile comprehensive bumper-to-bumper warranty, a three-day/150 mile customer satisfaction guarantee, and 24 hour roadside assistance during the term of the warranty. For more details on GM’s Certified Used Vehicles simply log on to www.gmcertified.com.

The Cadillac Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles come with a 6-years/100,000 mile powertrain limited warranty while the Hummer Certified Pre-Owned Vehicles come with a bumper-to-bumper 6-year/100,000 mile warranty. And for previously owned Hummer to become a Certified Pre-Owned vehicle a test is required. Previously owned vehicles have to meet the strict standards set by Hummer and should undergo the rigorous 100+ point inspection plus it is also very important that the vehicle is less than 48 months old and driven fewer than 50,000 miles without any serious accidents or body repairs.
