Help!! I have a brand new 2018 zl1 and purchased in Ariz , shipped here, drove 550 miles and tried to day to get smogged and not able. both people plugged in their reader and both showed O2 sensor not ok. I doubt and so does everyone else, sensor Is bad. I was sent the 8 steps to drive cycle the car, which seems more hokus pokus. I have had many new cars, one Porsche had same issues and Porsche reset something so it worked. I cannot get any other help and extremely frustrated. Plus, the drive cycle suggested is not going to work here in Hermosa beach. No where can you drive for 5 minutes consistent at 55mph. Along with the other steps it is a crap shoot if those can be accomplished. Other than moving out of town, there must be some way .
Help is appreciated.
