Saab reserves the right to unilaterally modify, change or discontinue Courtesy Transportation at any time and to resolve all questions of claim eligibility pursuant to the terms and conditions described herein at its sole discretion. Collision Damage Repair If your vehicle is involved in a collision and it is damaged, have the damage repaired by a qualified technician using the proper equipment and quality replacement parts. Poorly performed collision repairs will diminish your vehicle's resale value, and safety performance can be compromised in subsequent collisions. Recycled original equipment parts may also be used for repair. These parts are typically removed from vehicles that were total losses in prior crashes. In most cases, the parts being recycled are from undamaged sections of the vehicle. A recycled original equipment Saab part, may be an acceptable choice to maintain your vehicle's originally designed appearance and safety performance, however, the history of these parts is not known. Such parts are not covered by your Saab New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and any related failures are not covered by that warranty. Aftermarket collision parts are also available. These are made by companies other than Saab and may not have been tested for your vehicle. As a result, these parts may fit poorly, exhibit premature durability/corrosion problems, and may not perform properly in subsequent collisions. Aftermarket parts are not covered by your Saab New Vehicle Limited Warranty, and any vehicle failure related to such parts are not covered by that warranty. Collision Parts Genuine Saab Collision parts are new parts made with the same materials and construction methods as the parts with which your vehicle was originally built. Genuine Saab Collision parts are your best choice to ensure that your vehicle's designed appearance, durability and safety are preserved. The use of Genuine Saab parts can help maintain your Saab New Vehicle Warranty. Repair Facility Saab also recommends that you choose a collision repair facility that meets your needs before you ever need collision repairs. Your Saab dealer may have a collision repair center with Saab-trained technicians and state of the art equipment, or be able to recommend a collision repair center that has Saab-trained technicians and comparable equipment. 7-9
