ONSTAR can read them but they normally wont give you the code itself.
Depends on how good you are at sweet talking whoever you get on the line as to weather they give you the actual code.
There are all sorts of inexpensive code readers on the market today.
Even some that work off of smart phone apps. They are good to have for times when you just want to know why/what set the code.
Harbor Freight has one on sale for 40 bucks with the coupon. It aint the greatest but it works and updates are free.

It's all about revenue for the stealerships. They want to get paid for diagnostics and repairs.
