got an email from my dealer today saying "0% availability for manual transmissions"

got an email from my dealer today saying "0% availability for manual transmissions" ...anyone know anything about this? I searched but don't get anything...are there transmission constraints now? :(

"Hi Dennis, sorry for the delay. One potential problem is manual transmissions are currently at 0% availability. So many have been ordered, and I think GM underestimated demand. Hopefully, they will be able to increase production of the tranmission.
John"
