Have dealer appointment set up for Tuesday. Will keep you posted.

On the plus side: no apparent hardware failure.

On the minus side: I will have to rely on the service department to find and correct what appears to be an intermittent software glitch. Mentally preparing myself for a round or two of "no trouble found" (as opposed to trouble not found).
UPDATE:

Just got off the phone with the service advisor. I took the car in on Tuesday. First thing they noticed is one of my rear tires has a broken steel belt. Nice bubble where sidewall meets tread. I've had this before on a front tire. So, they ordered a new tire. This will be my 4th replacement via the Tire & Wheel Warranty I purchased (Post #5383 in this thread --> https://www.camaro6.com/forums/showt...ranty&page=385 ). It's almost like getting a complete set replaced under warranty, except one of the fronts was replaced twice and one of the rears is still original equipment (for now).

He is saying that it is possible that eccentricities in the pavement might have been exaggerated by the tire condition. He also said no codes were set That seems odd to me.

So, now they're just waiting for the tire to come in. He thought it would be in yesterday, but is pretty sure it'll be in today. I asked him to see if there were any software updates for MRC while they wait for the tire to show up and he committed to doing that. Probably won't get it back until tomorrow, since I'm going to the Lions / Browns game right after work.
