Bogging down and super slow acceleration

I have a 2017 Camaro V6 LT2. It bogs down when accelerating especially when going around curves. It drives like a grandpa car. My 2010 camaro had amazing pep and it was a V6 as well. Any suggestions that may help would be appreciative! This has been going on for a few months now. Dealership says nothing is wrong, of course!

Did you check the obvious? Dirty Air filter, dirty TB, plugs look ok?

Also, you may want to fix the spelling of Camaro in your Avatar.

also, does it happen no matter where you buy the gas, or are you always buying gas from the same station?

I usually do buy gas at the same station. I'll try a different one and see if that helps.

The stability control kind of feels like that. Turn everything off (hold 7ish seconds) and then see, safely of course.

I’d say traction control as well. It works in conjunction with steering wheel angle. My SS does the same thing. Tried disabling traction control on an empty parking lot in an industrial area after hours to test it. And even going as slowly as possible and giving it some throttle it went completely bananas. Definitely a good thing the traction control gives some restraint, as I nearly drove the car into a light post. I was shocked at how much torque it really has. The traction control also does a great job hiding that.

Now that would make sense! My dog always hits the traction control button and turns it on! Thanks guys!

WIth my TC on its still nowhere near bogged down, just as torque. TC doesn't kick in until it notices a loss of traction not before.
