Free Oil Change
I've read somewhat contradictory statements on this forum regarding free oil changes. Can someone tell me whether or not (and how) to get I get any free oil changes from GM?
I bought a used 2015 Z51 (I'm in Georgia) and the original dealership is in Canada. So I know I cannot get anything from them. But what about GM.
If I should be able to get a free oil change or three how do I go about securing this?

I was just in the local dealership talking with the Service Manager about re-aligning my 2017 GS to get better tire wear.
In talking to him I was told that GM provides oil change at 500 miles and two additional oil changes free. He also told me that GM now only allows dears to use full synthetic oil on ALL oil changes and that Corvettes get Mobil 1.
I would think that if this is a GM policy it should be good for for your car. Talk with your local Chevy Service Manager.

When purchasing a new Corvette you get some free oil changes and it varies from year to year. With my 14 Z51 I got 4 or 5 free oil changes but had to be used within 2 years. With my 17 Z06 I got a free oil change at 500 miles and will get 2 more, again to be used within 2 years.
I'm not sure about a 15 corvette and from Canada but I'm guessing your 2 years is up. You can stop into a dealer and ask them but I'm guessing you are on your own.

I think bearphoto is right. As he said though, a dealership should be able to look up the service records as well as if it has any left, it is recorded with the car VIN.

I'm surprised at how some call it a free oil change, I look at it as warranty maintenance, that you purchased (payed for) when you bought the car....I don't think of it as FREE.

If the OP bought his car (2015 Z51) in the U.S. he would get five oil changes within two years, which is probably already expired. I don't know what the offering is in Canada.
