Default GMPP-Very Important

Well GMPP did it to me this year. I tell everyone the price increase is coming on October 1st, well this year it is September 1st. I know of about 250 customers who in talking to them wanted to wait until September to do this, well in order to not have a price increase we must get this done by Monday. I have not had time to study the price increase yet but if you do not want GM to have your money email me at dfichtner@fichtnerchevrolet.com or gmpp@fichtnerchevrolet.com or I may be reached at 406-628-4618, Ext 105 and we can get this done by Monday.

Dennis Fichtner

This is very critical news for those of you wishing to extend 2001 & 2002 models, you must get this done by Monday.

GMPP looked after me when I had to replace the EBCM.

Last year they replaced my complete rear-end, gears and housing. My 2000 is pushing 49,5k on the miles, but I think my plan runs to Nov 08.

Just as a reminder again, You can extend your original GMPP if you have 2 months and 2000 miles left and they only go back 7 model years so if you have a 2001 and want to extend you must do so by Monday and it is a holiday so you have until 8-30 only.

I had GMPP 7 yr 100k on my 2001, never had claim denial, had every known C5 problem fixed - never added it up but I am sure I had 20k to 30k in claims paid (all legitimate problems)

But of course I had a cooperating dealer who never gave me a hard time, either.

Dennis - I have a 2001, 94,000 miles. GMPP expired 12/10/07. Am I still eligible for another GMPP policy?
