I had the newest update for a few weeks now. No issues since then.

A follow-up article on GM and the brake problems: https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/general-motors/2020/02/06/gm-warns-2019-pickup-owners-driving-risks-brake-issues/4654878002/

Yup. There are also irrational brand fanboys that will dismiss anyone's (legitimate) complaint.

I'm sorry man. Happened to me at 6k miles. I was without my truck for nearly 4 weeks while they did an engine replacement.

Thanks, but I just got sick of the corporate double speak and run around from GM. I was a reporter once upon a time; had a strong sense this would be of interest to a reporter so I contacted the paper right in GM's back yard. Turned over service records, the TSBs, etc. It's a shame they wouldn't do the right thing until they were called on their BS, but I wasn't going to sit quietly while they used my family as test subjects for their faulty software.

That's me with my Denali in the picture....

I was interviewed for a story on this, coming out in the next day or so. GM is supposedly going to issue a new recall for all the 2019 to correct this. In the meantime we're all R&D dummies for GM.

I spoke to a Detroit Free Press reporter for a while about this today. GM is finally admitting their December brake update/recall is causing brake problems for owners. I believe she will have something out this week.

Yeah, same thing happened to me after the recall. They couldn't fix it, ordered a new camera (backordered) and then a few weeks later it suddenly started working again.

In this same thread I posted the email address of Jamie Lareau, an auto reporter with the Detroit Free Press. She is interested in talking to owners that have experienced exactly what you have. She is getting the run around from GM corporate, so the more first hand accounts she can quote the better.

I wish I bought a different truck, or just kept my Canyon. In one year of ownership my Sierra has been in the service bay for going on 7 weeks total. From engine failure to loss of brakes. Worst new vehicle I've ever owned.

I've been speaking with an automotive reporter at the Detroit Free Press about these post-recall brake problems. She's talking with GM and is looking for other owners willing to talk on the record about these problems, GM's response/non-response, etc. Her name is Jamie Lareau and her email is [email protected] . She asked that I post her email in case any of you wish to speak with her.
