a question:
you spoke to a rep, or someone from the dealer? a rep works for gm, not the dealer.
a few points:
plug wires are not considered an electrical issue
if you put on/had put on headers, and the plug wires were knocked off, its not warranty

yeah. see that all the time. wires connected but not snapped, eventually through vibration, heat cycles etc they back off and cause an issue.
not just plug wires, but regular electrical connectors too. just fixed one on thursday for a 2014 that the parking sensors stopped working.
