These are pretty much generic to any location... asking records part is somewhat too much i guess. I don't think one in India will maintain the receipts of services ;)
U'll be surprized then, bcos you can get maintainance records in India too. I maintain it. Only thing is the used car market is not as organized as in US. But still people back from US can try to get the info. :)
