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.
- Request transmission bolt and both tire recall completion records.
- Verify roof-rail air bag and fuel pump recall repairs; ask about stalling.
- Confirm camera recall completion and ask about electrical or steering faults.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any GMC dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
