It is our way of saying thank you for all that you do.

Firefighters, Police, EMTs/Paramedics and 911 Dispatchers: Authorization numbers are valid for 90 days on the purchase or lease of an eligible, new vehicle. You must take delivery of the vehicle prior to the authorization number expiring.


What Happens to my Authorization Number if I Don't Use it Before it Expires?

Documents requested may include, but are not limited to, Police, Firefighter, EMT/Paramedic, 911 Dispatcher, Healthcare Professional identification, registration/title information, or any of the documentation reasonably necessary to verify The Participants’ eligibility.

Any money improperly paid to any party based upon the dealer’s or Participants’ representation shall be charged back accordingly.

Limitation on Number of Vehicles

Participants may purchase or lease a cumulative total of two (2) vehicles under The Program during the calendar year.

Eligibility Period

Authorization numbers for Police, Firefighters, EMTs/Paramedics and 911 Dispatchers are valid for 90 days toward the purchase or lease of an eligible vehicle. Authorization numbers for eligible Healthcare Professionals are valid until 1/2/24 toward the purchase or lease of an eligible vehicle.

Retention

If purchasing or leasing a vehicle under The Program with cash or through a loan, ownership must be retained for at least six (6) months from the date of delivery of the vehicle.

GM reserves the right to modify the retention rules at any time. Retention periods for some vehicles may be different than the retention period referenced in previous versions of the Rules and Guidelines.

Titling Restrictions

An eligible vehicle purchased or leased under The Program must be used for the personal, noncommercial use/transportation of the eligible purchaser. It is prohibited under The Program to purchase/lease and register/title a vehicle and then surrender the vehicle for part or all of the required retention period to any other person. In addition, it is prohibited under The Program to purchase/lease a vehicle for commercial use or to title in a business name.

Eligible vehicles purchased or leased under The Program must be registered, licensed, titled, insured and owned by The Participant. Eligible vehicles may also be titled in the name of a living trust that bears the name of The Participant.

When it is necessary for financial reasons, vehicles may be co-titled in the name of a non-eligible person. In these cases, all of the following requirements apply:

  1. The Participant's name must be the first name listed on the title
  2. The Participant's name must be the first name listed on the registration
  3. The Participant's name must be the first name listed on the financing documents

If any one of these requirements is not met, unless compliance is not possible under state law, the vehicle may not be co-titled in the name of a non-eligible person.

Inducements

At no time should a Participant accept payment or other consideration from dealers for referrals.

Participants purchasing an eligible vehicle under The Program shall not solicit or accept money or discounts from dealers, other persons or other business entities, except GM-sponsored incentives, in connection with the sale of vehicles under The Program. Participants may accept inducements of nominal value, up to $50, provided the inducements are offered to the general public and are noncash in nature, such as a free first oil change. This prohibition does not apply to a fuel fill if provided by the dealer at the time of delivery.

Documentation Fees

Unless prohibited by law, dealers will be permitted to assess a maximum of $75 in documentation fees, except in these specific instances:

  • A documentation fee is specified in the applicable state law;

AND

  • Your dealership charges all customers the same documentation fee (excluding customers purchasing under the GM Employee, Military, Executive Referral and Dealership Employee Programs).

Additional Information

If the dealer you visit is not willing to sell you a vehicle through The Program, you may visit another GM Dealer. Dealer participation is voluntary.

Dealers are not required to participate in the GM First Responder Program. To determine a dealer’s willingness to sell vehicles under The Program, you must speak with the dealer directly.

By purchasing a vehicle through The Program, The Participant acknowledges The Program’s Rules and Guidelines and agrees to abide by the same Program Rules and Guidelines.

Participants are required to report any unauthorized use of authorization numbers immediately. Those who do not report any suspicious or unauthorized use of authorization numbers after they have been submitted on their behalf may be subject to a charge-back of any discount or incentives paid under The Program.

Failure to comply with an audit request may subject The Participant to charge-back consequences as described herein. General Motors has the final decision on all eligibility requirements. The Program may be terminated or modified by GM at any time, in its sole discretion.

Compliance With Applicable Laws

If any law or regulation is adopted or interpreted which, in GM’s opinion, prohibits or penalizes the implementation of The Program, GM may, in its sole discretion, cancel The Program or any order submitted pursuant to The Program without any further obligation and without any liability to either the dealer or The Participant.
