My cold pressure is in the high 30s as well.
Maybe @Katech_Zach could chime in on this? ��

Good Morning,
As far as I know (the oil pump control strategy has changed year-to-year), the target hot oil pressure at idle is either 30, or 40 (depending on what you were just doing). I don't think there is ever a case where it is trying to target less than 30.
If it were me personally, I would start a GM case immediately (contact GM online via live chat), have them start a case, and bring it to a dealership to have them note the symptoms and temperatures you are seeing. Make GM aware of the issue prior to the warranty expiring, explain you want it addressed prior to expiration.
At least then, it is clear you are making an effort to get it fixed prior to your warranty expiring. If there is a case where you see a failure and your powertrain warranty is expired, you will now have reference material to show them this problem has been around prior to expiration. Then you have a chance at a "warranty repair" with an expired warranty.
Hard to say, usually I see 20-25PSI cold when it is at the "half-failure" point. So you are lowering than normal, but also higher than the expect failure points
