Quartz Speedometers will be shipped to the dealership prepaid via UPS unless dealership specifies differently. (UPS Next Day Air, approximately $25.00.) The dealer will be invoiced for the speedometer. This billing will be cancelled upon receipt of the inoperative speedometer and a properly completed AC-Delco Warranty Form (ACD 1078).

Dealers are to return the malfunctioning speedometer prepaid via UPS in the original reusable container to avoid damage. Failure to return the inoperative speedometer in the special reusable container may result in a $10.00 container replacement fee. Any unit that is stolen or damaged by accident is to be replaced through normal WDDGM part ordering procedures.

Dealers are to fill in the red shaded areas of the AC-Delco warranty claim form (ACD 1078) and forward all copies with the unit to the service center.
