Default service records

Is there a way to get service records for the new c5 I just purchased?
Tried calling local dealers and they won't cooperate.

You can only get what has been reported by GM. PM me your VIN and I'll look it up for you if you like. This will show anything that happened under warranty and any dealer service after the fact, if applicable.

CarFax may have records too, but there's no guarantee whatever shop the car has been to reports to them.

Welcome to the forum! It can be hard to get a complete service history unless the previous owner kept good records. Moat things don't get reported. Good luck. We'd love to see pictures of the car.

Welcome to the forum. Great people on it, some a little crusty at times (me including) but advice well taken. Also here is something extra to consider in your ownership.
