No idea. I have friends with other GM performance cars who have blown theirs. I don't know if it is the power or what. Im at about 4k miles, gone through 2 of them.

I'd like to know if pulling the NPP fuse results in the loss of traffic sensing in the blind spots (rt/lt rear)?

I pulled mine before leaving the dealership lot. No issues whatsoever. 3k miles of smiles.

Shouldn't have anything to do with it. I think there was a thread on this previously, but the guy had an aftermarket system installed, not the factory system. Obviously when they installed it, they tapped into the same circuit as the NPP uses.

I'm wondering if they are binding when the exhaust heats up, that could burn the motors out if they get stuck. They might open fine when the exhaust is cooler. That's the only thing I can think of that would cause these to burn out, the motor keeps trying to move the butterfly while it is stuck. Didn't have this problem on the 2013 as they were vacuum operated.

No difference in the sound level....you just get the full sound ALL THE TIME. No drone or anything though if that was your concern.
