    I would second the radiator is probably blocked up. When i did my cam in march i flushed mine multiple times and you wouldn't believe some of the gunk that came out of it. That gm dexcool bs is a radiator killer. Flush it yourself, make sure it's full and burped then if it's still reading stupid start checking sensors.

    So I feel like a complete tool. I figured the place that did the coolant flush would have ensured I had plenty of coolant. I was wrong. Burped the system, filled the reservoir with 50/50 and everything leveled out. So thankful it never overheated. Thank you all for the attention in this matter. I hope I can be of service to you in the future.

    Happens dude. Glad you got it fixed. Summer is bad time to have cooling issues.
