Oil change for uninsured car

Hi guys, my grandpa has an old car, but he passed away a year ago, so we just stopped paying his car insurance. Now we want to use his car for our little sister for her college, and we just want to do an oil change at walmart or a dealer. So could we bring the car to them and do an oil change while my sister still in the market for auto insurance? Do their system report it to DMV or PD? Thanks guys
