Cadillac Professional Vehicle Protection Plan (PVPP)
Cadillac DTS and Escalade professional vehicle models are an integral part of Cadillac's continued product renaissance. With breakthrough design, advanced performance, purposeful technology and world-class craftsmanship, the competitive advantages of Cadillac's professional vehicle products have never been stronger. Cadillac is committed to the professional vehicle industry with a substantial product portfolio, dedicated dealerships, and a host of Cadillac professional vehicle owner privileges. One of the privileges Cadillac offers is the Professional Vehicle Protection Plan (PVPP), available to eligible industry members on select professional vehicle models. The Professional Vehicle Protection Plan (PVPP), an extended service agreement that complements the GM New Vehicle Limited Warranty, is available on the DTS livery sedan (W20), the DTS-L short stretch livery sedan (W30), the limousine chassis (V4U), the funeral coach chassis (B9Q), and the Escalade, Escalade ESV, Escalade EXT (ZR3) and any other identified PVPP program vehicle. Any parts added or modified for conversion are excluded from protection. Conversions are expected to meet Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) when properly completed, and be within weight limitations as specified by Cadillac.
Professional Vehicle Coverage Exclusive to Cadillac Master Coachbuilders
Cadillac has developed the Cadillac Master Coachbuilder Program to support efforts, provide quality products, and increase levels of customer satisfaction with professional vehicles. Since Cadillac recognizes that Cadillac Master Coachbuilders are committed to these objectives, along with continuous improvement of their conversions, Cadillac limits this protection to those professional vehicles manufactured by Cadillac Master Coachbuilders.
Coverage through this plan begins on the date the vehicle is first delivered or put into use. This will be the date the Cadillac dealer sells the DTS-L short stretch livery sedan (W30), limousine chassis (V4U) or funeral coach chassis (B9Q) to the Cadillac Master Coachbuilder. The actual selling date of the chassis/vehicle can be modified for the end-user by submission of the “Delayed Warranty Start” form, which is submitted by the selling Cadillac dealer or Cadillac Master Coachbuilder Dealer/Distributor. Repairs must be performed by authorized Cadillac dealerships.
Once you have invested in a Cadillac professional vehicle, your Cadillac dealer is aware of their responsibility in safeguarding your Cadillac and assuring you complete satisfaction throughout the ownership experience. As always, proper maintenance is your responsibility under the Professional Vehicle Protection Plan.
