Note to self: Contact Drew next time I needs teh vine.

Where you at doubletap?

I'm in Oregon. We are still waiting for the 2014 sierras we have on order to show up, but I guess they revealed the 6.2L is going to be around 420hp so I have to wait to see the new Yukon Denalis

If it was done at a GM dealer and under warranty they should. If you PM me your VIN i can look it up.
It probably won't say WHY though. Just that it was replaced.
Could be any number of things. In the 80's GM decided it was cheaper to replace whole components (engines, transmissions, etc) than the time and labor to tear them apart and fix what was wrong. The dealer sends back the core and GM rebuilds it and sells it as a reman.

Usually the report reads worse than it really is, plus dealers sometimes will fiddle with the VIN ... I know my guys at the body shop will often grab another VIN when they do painting or demolding from me when they put it in the books so that it doesn't show up on my vehicle's VIN service history. Not often mind you, but it does happen.

It also happened when I traded my 11 Esky for the 12 and the dealer forgot to put in the new number ... found out a couple of days ago that all the LED headlamp swap work on the 12 has been going on the 11 VIN that I don't own any more. Which is fine by me but probably confusing to the new owner of the 11 if he/she ever sees the report.

The most infuriating thing to see in the report is the dreaded CCND ... then you don't know what the hell's going on.

What's ccnd

Customer Concern Not Duplicated

You take it in and tell them the issue, they can't replicate it when they go to work on the truck, so they hand you back the key without fixing anything.

Got it. F$&@kin ccnd.

I know this is an old post but could anyone possibly run vin 1gchk23182f192037 for service history? Buying this tomorrow and have the autocheck but it didn't really tell me anything and dealers were already closed today. Thank you in advance if so.

Hello,

I am about to purchase a 2012 yukon xl denali.

I would really appreciate any help i can get in finding out the service history on this vehicle.

It has 20k miles and has had 2 owners. Began life as a hertz fleet vehicle until 14k and then a private owner for 6 k.

Can you help me see the service info

Vin #. 1GKS2MEF1CR196459

Thank you in advance

David

Service departments and some other GM employees have access to the full warranty/service history of a vehicle, as long as it was performed at a GM dealership.It's not that difficult to get if you ask nicely cause there are always folks on GM forums that have access to the records, although it's usually better to ask before purchasing the vehicle rather than after.
