Trouble with Pixel/Pixel XL OEM wall charger?

[AC Question]

The wall charger that came with my Pixel XL doesn't work with my new phone. I took it to the Verizon store, and it works with other Pixel phones -- mine just doesn't recognize it. If I use the USB to USB-C adapter and plug it into my Samsung wall adapter, it works. Has anyone else had issues like this? The only thing Google and Verizon can recommend is to replace the entire phone, which will mean waiting until December for them to be in stock.
