  1. No ****** , I posted this in hopes of a solution like a software fix but it takes voices to make it happen. So far what I've seen here is gimie gimie gimie and 30 mph ****** pies. Lesson learned
  2. https://gmauthority.com/blog/2020/12/general-motors-hit-with-class-action-lawsuit-in-california-over-infotainment-system/ I got in touch with them and so should you
  3. How bout this , 1,500 miles on a 2019 Sierra 2 Dr w/t 98% of the time the radio comes on at start up even though it was turned off "Distracted" warning rarely appears One time I turned the headlights to the on position from the auto position and regained control of the infotainment center. Radio loud spurts, 100% for a 1/4 of a second then back to where it was. Multiple times Screen and buttons do not respond and has even gone black. Multiple times a week , not so much now. Climate control blower--shut the truck off while the blower is running @ any speed , re-start the truck later , blower comes full blast even though the control was in the off position @ start up . Regain control by selecting any speed .
  4. 2019 Sierra 2 dr w/t base infotainment . Bought this truck new 6 months ago with nothing but glitch's with the infotainment center. 98% it comes on at start up even though it was off prior to "Distracted" warning rarely appears One time I turned the headlights to the on position from the auto position and regained control of the infotainment center. Radio loud spurts. While listening to music it goes 100% volume for a 1/4 of a second then back to where it was. Has done this multiple times Screen and buttons do not respond and has even gone black. Multiple times a week , not so much now. The display has come up " No Device Connected " also with no screen function Climate control blower--shut the truck off while the blower is running @ any speed , re-start the truck later , blower comes full blast even though the control was in the off position @ start up . Regain control by selecting any speed . I heard it could be the screen , it could be the actual unit , the wiring harness between the two . Goes to the stealership on Tuesday. All that " you have to bring it to a dealership when it's happening " is a crock .
  5. I had the same problem and did as you said , bravo and thank you
  6. Same thing with my first one , had scratch's and a small cut in the padding with a hunk of cardboard stuffed in the box . Second one had a big block of foam with bubble wrap on the mounting horn. Crappy shipping practice , worst I have EVER seen in my 66 years . I installed it today with a few choice words added . All the clips came off the tabs , glad I got more ahead of time. One thing I did differently from previous posts was leave the upper cover on the driver side on until I had it out . I was able to coax the metal clips and plastic locking tabs around the edges apart with little damage because I could see inside better than if it was still bolted in and just pulling on it . I found the aluminum collar around the seat belt attachment I was informed about but rather than pry at it or plier it , I just leveraged out the flange part with the end of the seat belt attachment that it was meant to hold in place , very thin aluminum and easily done . When I reinstalled it I just bent the collar over a bit and let the bolt finish it . For the most part it went smooth , the plastic being the toughest to deal with . Glad it's done and over with.
  7. There's been no mention on here about the plastic behind the seat belt floor attachment and how it comes off , I'm guessing the same type of clips used on the other side panels but previous posts say that only 5 new clips are needed for the job . That number doesn't jive with or include this lower panel forementioned . For the most part the posts relating to this upgrade have been very helpful but still leave some holes to be filled . When I do anything I like to be prepared , unpleasant surprises can really take a dump on you day . Comments welcome , thank you
  8. That's prolly the one I returned. It had a small cut in the pad and scratch's in the plastic . GM does a lousy job in their shipping practices , the seat belt attachment is not covered and bounces around in the box . Not a doubt in my mind that is the culprit . I live 50 miles from there and drove there to make the swap , Kyle at Malouf Chevy in NJ
  9. got mine in a week ,it was damaged and got the the replacement a week later from https://www.gmpartsxperts.com/
  10. not really , just what can be found here .
  11. Just my luck , I opened the GM box and the armrest has damage to it . This one is going back and another reordered . As far as the plastic removal , I have not seen anywhere about the removal of the bottom large surround that goes around the back under the seat belt bolt to access the two T-55 bolts .

  12. I just received my upgrade yesterday and hope to get it done as soon as the weather breaks here. If you had to do it again , what tips would suggest to remove the plastic panels . Also I can't seem to come up with torque values for the T-55 bolts for the installation , this concerns me because the armrest is a critical part of the jump seat restraint system . I've seen different versions of installation , one where the entire unit out of the box was swapped and another where just the compartment/armrest portion was changed reusing the mechanical guts of the OE armrest.
  13. Thanks for the heads up , I live in Pa and ordered it from the N J place .
  14. I ordered it under the old part number that was still listed . It should all pan out
  15. Glad I found this site guys. Just bought a 2019 Sierra W/T 2 door 8' bed and I'll be damned , no armrest storage like my Silverado had. Just want to say thank you for the pics and highlighted diagram for parts removal . You guys rock
