Truthfully, these early vin cars will probably not be scrapped if they fail quality control.

Usaully, they just get put in a line somewhere to be fixed or retro-fitted, (like CTF cars) which can take a couple of months since it is done on an individual basis instead of on an assembly line. After the car is fixed, they drive it as a company vehicle or sell it as a PEP purchase. GM just had 600-700 G8's that they ran a special on for PEP salesthrough gmfamilyfirst.com to get rid of.

But, they shouldn't have even had to tell you this. They should have automatically pulled a new car from production, shipped it to you, and told you and your dealer that they were not able to deliver the first VIN that you received. It's pretty dumb to be telling people that they are having QC problems when you are plunking down 35K for a new vehicle.
