My FOB completely covers all buttons. I assume the company makes them for the newer model trucks as well, but I don't know that for a fact. Here's a link to the Amazon product I bought for my 2020: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07ST3Y642/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&th=1

For what it's worth, I placed my fob in a leather cover specifically designed for it soon after buying the truck in July of 2020. I've not had a single incident in over three years of any button being pushed in error as the cover requires more effort to activate the buttons. Purchased it on Amazon, and a quick search shows many options out there, even for the most recent model years.

For what it's worth, in over fifty years of buying vehicles, I've never seen a deposit, regardless of how it's paid for (cash/check, or credit card), refunded back to the buyer as a part of the transaction, but as others have said, it's always been applied to the overall purchase agreement/contract. Why would you want it refunded?

My 2020 Silverado 1500 LT had the idler pulley replaced, along with the serpentine belt, at 32,500 miles on the 29th of June in Madras, OR for the same reason/noise. The issue was the idler pulley, but the stretch-to-fit serpeitine belt had to be replaced because of the idler pulley replacement.

I had it done when I had GM's 2" lift installed. My 2020 LT had composite springs in the rear, and the dealer wouldn't install the lift kit without swapping out the composite springs with the steel springs as the GM accessory site states is a must. I'm no automotive engineer, so I'm unclear as to the reason for the mandated swap, but I wanted the GM product for warranty purposes, plus the ECM steering calibration that comes with the GM lift.

Your owners manual will tell you, at least my 2020 manual does. My 2020 has a fuse panel on both ends of the dash.

I'd recommend you have the dealership troubleshoot the Auto Stop/Start feature to determine why it's malfunctioning before you put on an aftermarket accessory that eliminates that function. If it were my truck I would want to ensure the cause of the issue was not related to something else beyond just the Auto Stop/Start feature.

I've noticed on mine that there is some slack/slop in Drive, but if I move the lever down to L, then back to drive, the slack/slop disappears. Having said that, I do not notice any movement of the shift lever while driving down a smooth road, but then again I'm not watching the shift lever either...but now I will, and my OCD will probably kick in and I'll discover I have the same issue - thanks!

You might want to consider posting your question in the HD forum instead of the 1500 forum, though I'm sure you'll receive some responses.

The noise you describe sounds just like the one my makes approximately 45 seconds or so after shutting the engine off, however, this noise is normal (it's been discussed in a few other threads on this forum) and is unrelated to the installation of a CAI. My truck made this noise before I installed the GM performance air intake, and still makes that same noise afterwards. If the noise you describe is other than the one I'm referring to, then I have no idea what it might be. How long did you have your truck before you installed the CAI?

The OP was interested in having the GM warranty, and if he wants the steering module re-calibration that comes with the factory suspension as well, he won't have much choice but to get the steel springs. However, you are correct, there are lots of trucks out there, many no doubt with the composite overload spring in the leaf pack, that are running lifts without any apparent issues.

It will be interesting to see that should the OP decide to go with the factory lift whether his dealer will do the work without replacing the rear leaf springs. I asked mine and they said they would not without the steel replacement springs, citing what the GM accessory website says about the steel leaf springs accessory (at least what it states for my truck): Enables the installation of a Chevrolet Performance 2-Inch Lift Kit (sold separately) on MY2019+ Silverado 1500 trucks factory equipped with composite overload leaf springs Full Steel Leaf Spring Kit offers a direct replacement for the production composite leaf spring packs Not intended for standalone installations Required to support the installation of the Chevrolet Performance 2-Inch Lift Kit on MY2019+ L84 (5.3L V8) LT Trim and MY2019+ LM2 (3.0L Turbo Diesel) 2WD, Crew Cab and Short Bed LT Trim equipped trucks Expert installation by an authorized GM Dealer is recommended

Sorry for being a little late to this conversation, but my understanding is if you have composite rear leaf springs you must also purchase and have installed the steel leaf springs shown on the accessory website as well, or is that not an issue for a 2019?

Can you use the left side (backside of steering wheel) controls to move through your playlist as you can in AA in lieu of the onscreen touch controls?

Have you used your truck to tow another trailer with it powering up its lights properly? If not, I'd recommend hooking up to another trailer to determine if it's a truck or trailer issue. The RV seller should be more than willing to let you connect to one of their other trailers. Finally, does your AT4 have the tow package that provides the trailer light test option? If so, when you select the "Connections" option does it state that everything is "good to go?"
