Here's a pic off google image. Notice the illuminated rings around the volume, menu and HVAC knob. Most trucks don't have this because of some flaw in the build or something. Earlier builds have the rings the "mid" stage builds do not and the later builds I guess it was fixed. GM is researching the issue and is suppose to do something about it.

I just got off the phone with my dealer and they said nothing can be done it didn't come from the factory equipped with it. I was told it had Nav but it is what it is.. Do you know what exactly the dealer did to add the Nav to your friends truck? And how it differs? I'm pretty upset I'm left in the dust with no factory Nav in a 45k truck.

Wondering if everyone has that system update option or does mine need to be taken to the dealer for an update. I made an apt at the dealer, but want to make sure I'm not taking in for nothing.

Hi Dan,

 

I think I have one of the "mid" stage builds since my truck doesn't have the illuminated rings. Do you have any information on what GM is going to do about this? Should I just take it out to my local dealer's service center and ask?

 

Thanks,

Tuan

Yeah I would just take it in and show them a truck that works when they try and tell you it's suppose to be that way. Took me 4 weeks of back and forth but I got mine fixed and it's all good now.

They aren't going to do anything from what I understand. My dealer gave me some print out about how trucks build before a certain date do not have the lights.

Do I have to do it at the dealer I bought it at or can it be any Chevrolet dealer? Sorry if that's a stupid question. This is my first new vehicle purchase so everything is new to me. The dealer is actually pretty far from me and I've apparently stepped on some toes in the sales department (long story; I'll tell it if anyone is interested but I won't digress too much on the forum topic) so I'd rather do it somewhere closer to home. Also, would it be the sales department that has to okay the fix or is it service?

 

Thanks,

Tuan

You can go to any chevy dealer it doesn't matter. They'll honer any GM owner especially a brand new truck. You would have to make a service appointment and have it ok'ed by the service manager. It may take a lil while if they have to start a case with GM for the ok to swap the part with the proper one advertised. Just make sure you show them multiple trim levels (Lt, LTZ with and without Nav) so they don't try to tell you it's only on certain models.. Be prepared for a potential run around. Or just do as most have and say they worked and now they don't..

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By newdude · Posted

      HD at the moment, are kinda their own deal.  How LTZ sells on those vs on 1500, there is a difference.   They are merging most of the mid trims on 1500.  LT, RST and LTZ are replaced by one trim, Silverado.  LT and RST are a BIG portion of sales.    Bad naming choice aside, the new Silverado trim will offer the spread of options that those three trims offered.  So expect to see things like the tech package for example, and memory seats.  And LT Trail Boss will now just be "Trail Boss" (formerly LT Trail Boss) but will offer content spread like the new Silverado trim will.  The press photos showed the Trail Boss (formerly LT Trail Boss) has access to Super Cruise now, which on the current truck was High Country only.       Here is the Trail Boss interior.  Memory seats and Super Cruise are present.  All things the LT Trail Boss it replaces, and the RST it was based on didn't get on the current gen.  You had to go to LTZ or ZR2 for memory seats, and High Country for Super Cruise.

      2021 vs 2026 handling (1500 X31 Sierra)

      By dennismc · Posted

      I installed a Hellwig rear sway bar on my 21 Sierra SLT, it made a huge difference on how the truck handles, no body roll, the trucks much more planted now. Not sure of the suspension differences between the 21 and 26,  if its body roll your having a sway bar will solve it.

      frustrating P0446 code

      By Old Bay · Posted

      So a follow up and my fix. I found in online searches the live data to look at on a scan tool to verify the fuel tank pressure sensor was working.  It showed an spec number towards the lower end of the rang, but in spec.  Then while it was running opened the gas cap and the pressure should change.  It didn't change even a tiny bit.  The data for the purge valve said it was open...never changed. So then I measured the voltages on the plug for the fuel pressure sensor and they matched what it should be.  So local car quest parts had the sensor in stock...it was a bit of a pain to remove and an even bigger one to get it to actually go back in.  It helped to unbolt the driveshaft and bungie cord away from the gas tank to give a bit more room to work. So fuel tank pressure sensor in I cleared the code, and started it up.  I went to the scan tool's live data and... Eureka! The pressure number was different and fluctuated a bit.  So took it on a short drive and pressure number varied saw the purge valve go from closed to open and back to closed.  Drove it to and from work for roughly a week plugged in the scan tool no codes.  I took it in to get tested and passed.  In my state's infinite wisdom (oops meant greed), since I pushed the test with the maximum extensions I have to take it back in by Feb '27 to 'get it back up to date', then my next test won't be until Feb '29.
