ACDelco to Offer Customers Cash Back Rebates in Fall Durastop Brake Bucks Promotion

GRAND BLANC, MICH. -- Vehicle owners looking to replace their brakes this fall can experience premium ACDelco replacement parts at competitive prices when they purchase ACDelco DuraStop® brake products from participating Independent Service Centers (ISCs) as part of ACDelco's DuraStop "Brake Bucks" Cash Back promotion.

ACDelco will reimburse consumers $15 for each set of select quality ACDelco DuraStop friction pads, shoes and loaded calipers purchased from and installed by a participating ISC from Sept. 1-Oct. 31, 2005. The offer is not valid at new vehicle dealerships or on products being replaced under warranty, and there is a $30 maximum rebate limit per customer.

"This rebate promotion allows customers to upgrade to a premium product at an even better price," said Malcolm Fordyce, ACDelco merchandising specialist. "Furthermore, with ACDelco, consumers have the peace of mind knowing our DuraStop brake products undergo the most rigorous testing available for aftermarket products. We do this not only to adhere to federal safety standards for Original Equipment Manufacturers, but also because it's the right thing to do for our customers."

To receive reimbursement, consumers must submit a completed rebate form, the box end flaps of the DuraStop product as proof of purchase and a copy of the repair invoice to verify the installation. Vehicle owners can go to acdelco.com for an ACDelco DuraStop "Brake Bucks" Cash Back rebate form and to find a participating installer in their area. ACDelco will mail a check for the rebate amount to the consumer.

ACDelco's brake line features DuraStop ceramic brake pads made from a combination of ceramic and nonmetallic materials rather than from any semi-metallic materials. When installed properly, the results are exceptionally smooth stops, less noise and increased durability. The line includes brake shoes, drums, rotors, cables and disc brake pads that fit virtually all import and domestic vehicles, including Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Ford, Chrysler and GM.
