Take it to the freaking dealer. There is your answer.
Some threads on here are so ridiculous. It's a new, stock car. Take it to the pros. |

Either take to dealer, or call OnStar back and get the actual code(s) and look up what they mean. This description is not helpful...

It is definitely best to take your vehicle to a dealership for proper diagnosis. There could be many reasons why the engine is not emitting exhaust properly. Please let me know if you are taking this route. Brandon Chevrolet Customer Service

OK after the wife spent 3 hours at the dealer , the answer is in. A bent exhaust vent flap.... no idea what that is , but the part is on order.... they also said this is why your getting 10mpg... so once this is fixed, WE will will see a 5 MPG increase I HOPE

With responses like that I can only assume someone has jammed a potato in your exhaust.
