I know I kinda waited till the last minute, and I do not put to much weight into this, but I was wondering if anyone here had a CARFAX account , or worked at a dealership that could run the VIN of the Escalade Im looking at....

If so, the vin is: 1GYEK63N22R29034

I think thats what it says, the paperwork is in the guys handwritting and its not the greats.....


Any help will be greatly appreciated, and if costs anyone anything I would be happy to send you reimbursment

I usually start a free classifieds ad on eBay and punch the Vin number in. Usually takes a few minutes but once it comes through you can cancel the ad.

Yeah unfortunately the warranty system is limited unless they went through a GM dealership. But what you said is correct.

My T/A came from Kutztown Auto Sales before I bought it privately. Just thought I'd share, lol. GL on the purchase!

Nice, do you like it there?

So far so good. It's been 7 months and I've completed 3 audits so far. It's weird coming from being in the hands-on IT field (App Administrator, System Administrator, etc) and now being an auditor. The nice part is now when I find things wrong, we just hand over the report to IT and they have to come up with the action plans on how to fix it and they ultimately are the ones responsible for doing all the work to make it right. We follow up down the road, but it's not our skin for what we found. Eventually I went to get back into IT, but ultimately I'm just thankful I got my foot in the door at GM... having been a fan boy for so long, it's great actually working for the company.
