What is the program about?
The GM First Responder Appreciation program is about showing
gratitude for those who are always first. It allows first responders
including firefighters, police — including police officers, sheriffs,
sheriff’s deputies, correctional officers, state troopers and federal
law enforcement officers; EMTs/paramedics and 911 dispatchers and their
sponsored spouse* to get a special offer on the purchase or lease of
select new Chevrolet, Buick, GMC or Cadillac vehicles. The GM First
Responder Appreciation offer can be combined with most other current
offers to help the most deserving members of the community get an even
better deal. It is our way of saying thank you for all that you do.
Which GM vehicles are eligible?
Many new and unused GM cars; SUVs; crossovers; midsize, light-duty
and HD pickup trucks; and passenger and cargo vans are eligible. Vehicle
eligibility may change over time, so check before you buy.
Can I share my GM First Responder Offer?
Yes; you can sponsor your spouse for the GM First Responder Appreciation Offer.

How Do I Take Advantage of the GM First Responder Discount
Firefighters, Police, EMTs/Paramedics and 911 Dispatchers: Visit
ID.me to create an account, or if you already have one, log in with
ID.me, and then on the GM First Responder Appreciation offer landing
page click “Get Authorization Number.”
The dealer
MUST have your or your sponsored spouse’s authorization number prior to
completing the lease or purchase of an eligible vehicle in order to take
delivery.
What Should I Bring as proof of Eligibility?
Firefighters, Police and EMTs/Paramedics: Once
you’ve logged onto our site through ID.me, your identity will be
verified, which means you’ll no longer be required to provide proof of
eligibility at the dealer. However, you must still take your
authorization number — along with a copy of your driver’s license with
the license number redacted — to your dealer when you’re ready to
purchase or lease a new vehicle.
911 Dispatchers: Participants must present the
following, along with a valid authorization number, to a participating
GM dealer in order to purchase or lease under the program: A valid,
current 911 training and education document or a 911 ID card that
contains The Participant’s full name.
Healthcare Professionals: Eligible participants must
present the following, along with a valid authorization number to a
participating GM dealer in order to purchase or lease under the program.
- A copy of The Participant's ID/badge or a copy of a current pay
stub (within the last 30 days) with all information redacted except the
date of the pay stub, The Participant's name and name of the
Participant's employer
- A copy of The Participant's driver's license with the driver's license number redacted.
How Many Vehicles Am I Eligible to Purchase/Lease?

How Long Do I Have to Keep a Vehicle to Qualify for the GM First Responder Discount?
Vehicles must be retained for a minimum of six (6) months from the vehicle delivery date.
I Recently Bought/Leased a new GM Vehicle. Can I apply the GM First Responder Discount to That Purchase?
No. Previous purchases/leases are not eligible.
Does My Authorization Number Expire?
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?
If you don’t use your authorization number prior to the expiration
date, the authorization will be added back into your account. To
purchase or lease, you will have to obtain a new authorization number by
following the prompts in the Programs menu.
