How do I find out? Do I type the VIN into some website to get the build

I traded in a 2017 Camaro to get the 2018 because the stealership messed
up my 2017.

I've never been back to that dealer since because of all the grief I got
about wanting a new 2018 instead of letting them send the 2017 to their
body shop to be repainted. They wanted me too leave it for 3-4 weeks
so they could change body panels then repaint the whole car. The car
had about 100 miles so I was not having a non-factory paint job after
dropping so much cash on a new car. The damage happened during a
dealer locate and transfer so I arrived to buy it and they had me pay
and sign all the papers on it before letting me know the car was damaged.
They made sure they locked me into the car first. I was so mad..

And Chevrolet customer service was useless. I had to get the Florida
Inspector General for Car Dealerships involved to make the dealer
order me a new 2018.

I took my 2018 to a different dealer 6 months later after getting sick of
the shudder and hesitation. They gave me the story that all A8s work
that way and the the shudder and hesitation is just the way the
transmission works. It's a crap answer and I hate the A8.

I am still hoping someone can translate the above service bulletin's
verbiage for 2018 model year Camaros.

Find a more decent dealership. They'll verify the shudder and do a flush with a new 2019 fluid and trans flush tool based on the latest revision of the TSB.

As to the longevity of the new flush, most have doubts and it's only been a few weeks, but AFAIK nobody has posted a shudder report after it so far.
