Before you buy
- Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
- Verify completion of every applicable side and roof airbag campaign.
- Request repair records for both block heater cord recalls.
- Confirm rear fuel tank recall completion and ask about stalling.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any Chevrolet dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
