No dealer, nor GM themselves, can afford the lawsuit that would stem from such a situation. They also know that with the tools and technology the general buying public has at their disposal to track a VIN number's history they cannot hide a thing.

GM's corporate compliance department ensures that kind of thing doesn't happen today. That I can guarantee you. Anyone in the chain of command reviewing a lemon buyback repair and resale who even suggests such a thing will be looking for a new job Monday.

THIS!!!

Once a car is lemoned, the title is branded as a lemon. No manufacturer would try to cheat the system today.

Now, that doesn't mean that 3rd parties/used car dealers don't do it. Florida is known as a state where a tainted car and title, can be flushed (albeit illegally) and come out clean at the other end. I would never buy a used car from Florida.
