Insurance company and policy number. General description of the damage to the other vehicle. Managing the Vehicle Damage Repair Process In the event that the vehicle requires damage repairs, GM recommends that you take an active role in its repair. If you have a pre-determined repair facility of choice, take the vehicle there, or have it towed there. Specify to the facility that any required replacement collision parts be original equipment parts, either new Genuine GM parts or recycled original GM parts. Remember, recycled parts will not be covered by the GM vehicle warranty. Insurance pays the bill for the repair, but you must live with the repair. Depending on your policy limits, your insurance company may initially value the repair using aftermarket parts. Discuss this with the repair professional, and insist on Genuine GM parts. . . . . . Choose a reputable repair facility that uses quality replacement parts. See "Collision Parts" earlier in this section. If the airbag has inflated, see What Will You See after an Airbag Inflates? on page 3‑20. Driver name, address, and telephone number. Driver license number. .
