If I'm right, they should inspect connectors at all modules on the high speed networks, including connectors at all inline connections in the harnesses. Some of the terminals in these connectors are very small and poor tension can be an issue. It can only take one terminal with poor tension to cause this type of concern.
Good to know, I'll make sure to ask them about it tomorrow morning when I go in to see them.

After 3 full business days it is coming time to take it to a new dealer with a more competent and responsive technician.

Yeah Im starting to lean that way. I went to this particular one because it was the dealer I bought it from, but depending on what they tell me in the morning I may be taking it elsewhere.

I'll be sure to do this. They're supposed to be contacting GM today and getting back to me tomorrow. Will post another update when I mention this and hear what they have to say. Thanks for the advice

Thanks for the hookup, I couldn't find much in my searches. I'll be sure to mention all these (especially about wiring harness wear) to them tomorrow. Hopefully they take it well and don't get uppity on me like they know everything and that can't be the issue.
