Hi Maria, I just found out that GM lost the manufacturer and don't have a new one in place. When they get a new one, they'll have to tool up. This means it could be months.
I gave her everything... jewels, beautiful dresses -- with beautiful girls in them.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Yep, but let's wait and see what E and L come up with. They have been known to pull parts out of their asses.
Unless, of course, you really want the Camaro, then we can focus on getting a good trade-in on your car and a good price on the Camaro.

This just gets more appalling. Is there any system to query all the dealerships about parts in stock?

Unfortunately, this kind of stuff happens all the time. Parts suppliers go under without warning, and it takes a while to get someone else spooled up. New dies have to be cast, then they have to be approved by NHTSA, and then they have to make them and ship them.
There is a system to query all dealerships, but it's not always real-time inventory. It all depends on how often the dealership transmits the updated info back to central.

The service manager said he doesn't have much confidence in Detroit.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
He just doesn't know how to stop digging his hole deeper, does he?

Why? I mean, what am I going to do about it? I need a car, and mine is dead. They can't fix it, and if I was never born, that dealership would still exist. So why should he care?

I've worked with these guys for 10 years. They're fleet, not retail, and they've found stuff for me before. The service manager probably has little to no experience with the fleet side of things. I'm not making any promises, but if there is one to be found, they are the ones who can find it.
He may also be trying to cover his ass, especially if the dealership didn't do a thorough search when you first brought the car in.

You can tell everyone you know. You can start a Twitter campaign. You can call the consumer reporters at local stations.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I love these wedding pictures.
