Girl at Cooper just told me there is another hold on shipping as of today (Friday ) . She didnt know anything about it or how long it will be . She did say there will be shipments on weekends and extra resources in motion due to the current backlog of cars .

There are already open recalls on the vehicle, I wonder if they will address any of those situations on cars before they ship or let them be addressed by dealers.

Not a big deal... Dealers remedy recalls before delivering cars all the time... In fact they can't sell a car new or used with an open recall...

One thing is certain, rumors abound here, mostly are " I heard from a "reliable source"

This is updated software issues. GM wants customers to have perfect cars when receiving them. Leaking DCT? Where is this stated?

Plugging in 2020 C8 VINs into the GM Recall Center show no recalls.

I don’t know if this info helps but it appears on the palsapp site the Trip# are in sequence. Here is those from 0150064011-13 which shipped. Subsequently, 0150064014 and 15 have not appeared to show shipping que or have shipped. Just a guess.

Apparently the 250 that shipped had to go back throw the factory because the transmission was leaking and the rest have to go back through before shipping. If you watch the first Canadian delivery video on here he talks about it.

Supposedly it was 250 cars with transmission leaks were affected, but the issue has been fixed with those cars.

Start video at 1:30
