So what fried it leaving it disconnected for so long ?

Did the positive cable ground out by accident against something ?

Did you reinstall the battery cables in the wrong order?

Awesome!

I'm happy to hear the concern was addressed at Jones Chevrolet! Thanks for the continuous updates you provided. Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any inquiries moving forward.

Jekyll n hyde... I didn't do anything wrong except leave it disconnected for so long. From what they stated doesn't happen often but it happens. Because I stated I discoonnected it to paint my trim bezel they couldn't warranty it. They helped me out on diagnostic n repair hours though.

That is mod-hell. Had a tuner shop (RPM in Garner,NC) blow up my CTS-V for me. Told me to pound sand with a lean tune, fried piston and split cylinder. Told me that I must have gotten bad gas. From shell? Any way...$4k later.....lesson learned. Sorry for the OP's luck...definitely been there.
