Being in CA I had to buy from an authorized seller other than the manufacturer in order to get mine.

I purchased the first one from Summit Racing to put into my ‘16 Corvette. The second from Range for my ‘18 Escalade. I have had zero problems with either one. I highly recommend them. The latest versions have upgraded software that do not throw codes or drain the battery. I do keep a battery tender on the ‘Vette tho as I don’t drive it as often as I should.

I threw Alpin PA4s on and man what a plush ride. Quiet, soft and no tramlining. Not all season tires but I had them out in 50 degree weather and they stick. Cant wait for some snow.

Easy with the all out panic...
late 17 all 18 and 19 have the revised LV fluid and do not have shudder issues. If theres a problem with any if those examples it's not the 15 to mid 17 shudder problem due to TCC issue (which is because of the trans program and old fluid.)

Interesting that the new TSB includes 2015-2019 model years. When I had my 16 in for service there were 2017 and 2018 models with A8s being serviced. Just saying, make sure you monitor your car for the issue.

Are you just flushing it or replacing the torque converter? My response above was for the TC change, not a flush.

If your dealer has enough Vette techs, 2 or 3 days is about right. The usual problem is two-fold: they don't have enough techs and your TC is a warranty job so the profit to the dealer is minimal compared to regular service work. I set mine up way in advance and got them to commit to a no charge courtesy car. It took almost 4 weeks and would have been longer if I hadn't demanded to see the General Manager...then things got done quickly. And, this was at a good dealer...

How many miles on the car? What year is it? Did you get it from the dealer that's servicing it?
