The dealer told me it's definitely there, but it's been taking two to three attempts for some people to catch it reading bad enough for GM to approve the new flush. It's a bunch of crap. Had I known this would have happened, I'd have most likely gotten a used 392 Charger or a used 2014-2015 5th gen SS. I worked my butt off to get two college degrees and my motivation the whole time was wanting to be able to afford a new Camaro. It's a beautiful car...But an extremely frustrating car.

GM [insert profanity here] sucks for dodging the problem they know
exists by saying "The Pico doesn't show that it's bad enough yet".
GM knows the problem exists!
If we waste 2-4 hours of our day to bring our new cars to a GM dealer
to get something fixed that bothers us then fauking fix it. Don't tell
us to go away and live with it. I can't understand why some people
on here give GM a free pass because it hasn't affected them yet or
why they say "I just spent $3,000 of my own money to fix GM's defect"
It's GM's problem and everyone needs to start putting pressure on GM
to fix it. I consider the crappy throttle response to be another defect that
GM should provide a tune under warranty to fix it. Instead people need
to pay $800 and void their warranty to have a custom tune performed in
order to fix the throttle response to remove the delay and make it as
responsive as any non-GM AT.
The A8 sucks but both issues can be fixed if GM bean counters weren't
dodging the warranty repair costs.
