recalls...don't know where else to throw this thread

I just got my 98 Z28 a few months ago and was looking for recall information on the car. Does anyone know what kind of recalls are out for this car, if any? And where can I find a list that tells me if it was updated on my car?

If you want recall & TSB information, this is one source:

http://www.nhtsa.dot.gov/

They have tabs at the top to search for service bulletins and recalls.

Search the web and you can find some others.

If you check with any GM Dealer they can run your VIN and tell you if any campains have been done or if pending. They also show any work done at GM Dealers while under warranty. They are all computer linked now and the VIN numbers track everything. I always go in and run a used car after purchase to see the work it has had done. Later>>>>>>>
