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 both VIN-applicable half-shaft recall campaigns.
- Request windshield recall repair records and inspect its condition.
- Confirm tire size label readability and review engine and transmission service records.
- Open recalls are repaired free at any GMC dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
