i have a new sierra slt and I've used different usb ports and even changed the charging cables.

 

When plugged into the USB my iPhone drops calls repeatedly. I unplug and go Bluetooth and have 0 issues.

I took it to the dealer, they did an update and it was dropping calls before I left the parking lot.

I've registered my complaints and can only wait on another update at this point.

I don't use Bluetooth for oblivious reasons, I do use USB Apple car play no issues what so ever and I use the living piss out of ACP for music, calls, directions, & text messages.

 

what phone are you using?

Have you tried using the glove box port instead of center console to see if you can singulate the issue to the port? If it works fine from the glove box, have them put in a new USB port.

Edit: I missed originally where you said you tried different ports, and I'd like to clarify if you used just the two ports in the center, or if you've used the glove box port. I had to have my center console port replaced, but I've no issues since that was done.

i found out that the iPhone 6 had connection issues, i did purchase the iPhone 7 when it came out hoping there would be no problems.but, i am.

i use a iPod for my music with no trouble and i guess ill just leave the carplay/usb connection out until a update or gm address' it. bluetooth works just fine and thats good for me, carplay not so good.

    • Brought my 2015 Colorado into the dealership to check my touch screen issues, had that ghost touch thing happening. They said I needed a new touch screen and they could either order me one for $500. The lady at the service deck was nice enough to tell me I could order a touch screen online for less, she did stipulate that the touch screen had to be factory OEM, you can't pair an aftermarket screen to my radio seeing it was 2015, it had to be a GM factory OEM only. I found a few on Amazon and Ebay by the numbers on the back of the old screen, DJ080PA-01A GM# 22740886, Some said "OEM" in the description and others just said "Replacement". Would a replacement be the same as a OEM as long as it had the same numbers on the back of the screen? In some of the descriptions they also show different brand names but same numbers, is that an issue?  
    • I have both but typically use the 4 legged walker (wheels on front, ski's on back).   The four wheeler is starting to be used on "longer" outdoor walks.  The 4 legged walker is particularly helpful in practicing good walking posture.  Both of my knees are at different stages of recovery and I'm trying to not develop poor habits.  I can actually manage with a cane but it's very difficult not to favor one leg over the other.  My PT recommends I continue with my 4 legged walker for a while.  Yesterday was four weeks since my last knee replacement and I'm excited about my progress to date.  It has been a hell of a rough journey so far but it is exciting to witness  systematic and continuous improvement.  I went for years watching the decline of my "mobility".  It seems that everyday now I am alerting my wife to something I can do now that I couldn't a day or two ago!  I encourage anyone facing the prospect of knee replacement to share any concerns with others who have had the surgery.  It isn't an instant fix but rather is a considerable amount of short term pain for long term gain.  Recovery time and pain levels vary for individuals post surgery but the end results are typically very positive and I've never encountered anyone regretting having had the surgery. 
    • The lifter issue can be dealt with by shorter oil changes and quality oil IMO.
    • Got heavy rain, hail and light rain yesterday. 
    • I'm putting in an A-pillar pod/gauges, and I'm asking if anybody can identify a (preferably) fuse for a switched power and illumination circuit on the driver's side interior fuse panel. Offhand, everything I checked with a test light was constant-hot, and I'd much rather uses a piggyback fuse. I can certainly find a wire, but I'd rather not half-tap.   Thanks in advance for any help.
