VIN number
For those that have ordered a C7 in Nov and Dec what VIN number did you get? And when you ordered did they say anything about some of these problems being corrected at the plant? Thanks.

Based on reports here on the forum, I believe they had figured out the issue with forgetting to fill the rear axle with lube by then. Also, I heard that the firmware was fixed for the auto-dimming issue (and I have not seen an issue with that).

6744. Delivered on November 26. I have not had the dimming problem, but the entire instrument panel blacks out. I have been told a fix is in the works for sometime in February 2014.

Now that there has been some time since the vehicle came out, has anyone just received one off the line that was built in the last 30 days? If so have they fixed the major issues like the screens and HVAC on the newest builds?
