First a question; I will assume this cars is an automatic if you're looking for a dipstick since manual transmissions don't have a dipstick?

Some of late model cars have smaller more inconspicuous fluid checks. If you can not find a red lever style handle on the drivers side of the vehicle than look down the drivers side of the engine on top of the trans axle. You may find a small metal hook style stick like some foreign cars or a check plug like some manual transmissions.

I hear tell that some of the newer vehicles have no ready means with which to check level. This would leave me to suggest there is a fill plug somewheres at best - no dipstick to be had anywheres.

Good luck, and let us know what you find out.

Most of the newer GM (automatic Trans) cars DO NOT have any dipstick they are "maintence free" as GM puts it and should only be opened if there is a leak detected and then only by a trained service tech..
there are ways to check it but it is Not very user friendly in the fact that the car has to be running and on a hoist to check the fluid level ...
