HHR SS AUTO GMS1 Issues

So I took my auto in for service since it would only get full boost and first and second gear.

To recap.
1st gear 20+ PSI on RPD
2nd gear 20+ PSI on RPD
3rd gear 12-16 builds boost like a vortech and then steadily declines down at about 5500 rpm. Shown on RPD feels like stock performance
4th gear same result.

My local dealership said there is nothing wrong. I told them if I dyno it today that it would not make thier advertised HP claims in third and fourth gear. They claim GM tech support told my dealership this is how it is supposed to function.

If you have a video of your stock auto GMS1 HHR SS please post it so I can take it to my dealership showing that my car does in fact have an issue.

Or it is right and my car is functioning normally.

Should I just make a district supervisor claim?

Thank you,

Eric Serna

So full boost in all gears right. That only looked like a 1-2 shift.

That was a 3-4 shift. I was going about 45 mph when I hit it...and that was the result. When I hit it from 1-2....my tires spin like crazy...hard to even keep it on the road.
