GM, Saab Parts Division Come To Warranty Agreement

Saab owners, fear no more. As Saab Automobile Parts North America (SPNA), the exclusive provider of Saab Genuine Parts and Accessories to the U.S. and Canadian markets, and General Motors have entered into a Warranty Services Agreement.

The agreement means that SPNA is now authorized to provide warranty administration and related services through Saab’s network of Warranty Service Providers for model year 2009 and earlier Saab models still covered under the GM limited warranty plan. In doing so, the agreement permits Saab owners the opportunity to have their vehicles repaired by Saab factory trained technicians using Saab Genuine Parts by a nationwide network of Warranty Service Providers.

The transition of warranty administration services from GM to SPNA quietly began on December 17, 2012, and covers all of the United States and Canada. Notably, it will not affect GM’s original manufacturer limited warranty coverage. All scheduled maintenance, roadside assistance, loaner vehicle allowances and Certified Pre-Owned coverage will continue to remain in effect.

Saab Automobile Parts North America is based in Michigan and commenced operations in June 2012. It is responsible for the warehousing, distribution and sale of Saab Genuine Parts and Accessories for all Saab vehicles in the United States and Canada out of a 153,000 square-foot facility. With over 50,000 part numbers and over 70,000 parts, the company can ship over 3,000 order lines each day.
