Anti theft deterrent turns on no reason

[Pauline]

Got a 2015 sierra diesel 3500. Been having problems last couple of months of it not starting, battery dead, anti theft deterrent popping on for no reason, doors locking and not unlocking,  radio changing channels by itself. Been to dealer, said it had a bad plug connection on battery, replaced that, same problem started up immediately again. Saw a couple feeds showing thus problem has been in the trucks since at least 2014 models, wondering if any resolutions have been found as my dealer NO CLUE. 

 

Starts the same way each time now. Starts with the radio changing channels on its own. And since it is cold out here in the NE,  it'

I would find another dealer. If that doesn't work, call GM corporate and voice your disappointment with the issues, and the lack of the dealer's resolve to fix them.

Ultimately that is what I will probably end up doing, but in reading other feeds, it does not even look like GM acknowledged that there is a problem here. Hoped by starting a new thread that maybe there had been some resolutions from someplace?!?!?!?!?! Wishful thinking probably, but thought I would try just in case......

Not sure why you posted this more than once, it does not get faster answers, it only adds confusion. 

You say you have found online history of this issue, did you try asking the other people that had this same issue what fixed their truck?  Keep in mind that just because the thread does not give the solution, it does not mean it wasn't fixed, a lot of people simply go away after getting it fixed and do not post the resultant fix.  In order for this to be an ongoing issue since 2014 there must be more than one other reported incident.

GM never acknowledges their screw ups, especially nowadays.  I could fill this page with the problems I've seen or read about, or personally experienced on a brand new, or in-warranty vehicle. It's absolutely ridiculous. 

 

My '07 had been in for warranty issues at least 10 times - at the end of the day only a few things were fixed. They actually caused more issues than they repaired, when the lot tech smashed my truck up from bumper to bumper along the entire passenger side ... then gave it back to me with swirl marks in the paint that looked like a 3D movie in the sun ...

 

When my 36k warranty expired, I was left to fix the 4x4 problem that they refused to. At least I was able to find the new switch online for $20 - much less than any dealer was charging. That's just one of a laundry list of problems I've had, and are having right now ...

 

Good luck - hope your situation gets resolved.
