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 transmission bolt recall completion and ask about fluid leaks.
- Request tire recall records and confirm the currently installed tires.
- Ask about power train, electrical, or engine faults and related repairs.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any GMC dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
