Have your local dealer run the Vin# and they will be able to tell you.

Just ask them to check for recalls while you are there.It will only take about 5 min. to tell you.
Ask them to show you work that they did on the car as well.See if they have any of the maintaince records as well just for a peice of mind.

LOL My wife knows how I feel about my car and she doesn't get in my way.
My first thing is make sure the kids have then if there is left over then I will take.
