Finally! https://www.freep.com/story/money/cars/general-motors/2024/02/06/gm-general-motors-recall-heavy-duty-pickup-trucks-tailgates/72491550007/

Well as the originator of this thread after 2.5 years the problem is back! Glad to see GM has acknowledged the issue. To the dealership I go!

Where did you purchase the adapter from?

I think I have the same issue, did you guys ever figure out what the issue was?

Welcome! Read through my earlier posts with the remedy. Seems to be related to faulty switches and potentially the dampeners being too tight which may short out the switch as well. My dealership replaced both and been working fine ever since .

Go to page 1 post from March, this is a well known issue. Seems to be an issue with upper tailgate switch.

Yeah. I read somewhere, where deleting the profile and making a new one worked so I'll try that.

Hi, I recently had 4 trailer tires installed on my camper via mobile service. He also installed the GM tpms. I cannot get them to sync with the truck. I've tried the manual and tool methods. Do these things need to spin turn on? I haven't towed the camper yet since the tires were installed in my driveway. Thanks in advance.

Seems like a half ass fix.

Good luck M Huskey! Craziness, seems like a bad batch of switches..... I wonder if this is happening on the 1500's?

Best of luck. Definitely frustrating.....

Bill at Central not Prime.

Yep. Talk to Bill Devine or Gabe. They were great. I had created a video just in case it was behaving when I dropped it off but it was doing the same thing for them....Not sure what the factory is doing during installs but clearly some process quality control gap going on. Bill threw the kitchen sink at it and so far so good....

Hemi tick is horrible, I test drove one, asked the sales guy wtf is that noise. He says it goes away when the engine warms up I was like are you serious. Now at camp grounds I pay close attention to those hemi's and they all sound like they have loose serp belts.... This tailgate issue is pretty weird, so far so good on my repairs fixing the issue....for now...

That stinks, I had to wait about a month for parts and it took them a half day to repair the issue. Have talk with Bill in Service. I would have them disconnect the tailgate buttons while they order new switches. Your tailgate will still work via FOB and inside the cab switch (minus inner tailgate) without fearing it opening whenever.... It's been since early April since my repairs and fingers crossed... Two switches and dampener...
