Buick Takes
Buick Owners
Buick responsibility does not end with the
sale of a Buick car.
It follows the car thru
out its entire life.
That is why Buick has organized a nation
wide authorized Buick service that extends
to practically every city, town and village in
the United States.
Buick owners do not need service often. But
they have the comfortable feeling of know
ing that they can always be supplied with
genuine Buick parts and have their work
done by Buick-trained mechanics wherever
they may happen to be
