If it has NAV, look for "Home" address. Thats how I tracked down my vettes previous owner by using internet. Posting VIN also might help.

Most dealers won't disclose previous owner info - privacy concerns. Perhaps one of the options above will work for you.

I always put a home address that is several houses down and across the street. No sense inviting someone home who stole your car! Since, I have a Roadster, I keep the registration and insurance in my wallet.

One option is a CarFax to get some info. But most of that info is free with the next option:
The free option: Ask the local GM service dept for a VIS report. That will show where it was serviced and what was performed ( triple flush, etc.) It won't give owner info but will help you track down geographic history. Maybe that State DMV will provide Title information via the VIN.
