Has anyone had this problem? Got a 2019 GMC Sierra Denali a couple of months ago, and my screen has gone dead three times. It’s at the dealer now, they’re trying to find a software update, but I already did the one when prompted. (Pictures came out sideways).

I know you guys will think I’m crazy but I fly for the Military in a fully digital cockpit. If we rush certain things on startup or change one step during the display boot sequence it can cause a numb

No software update I know of will fix that.

It looks like either a connection issue (cable or board) or a bad display.

I see similar issues when cables get pinched too.

I know you guys will think I’m crazy but I fly for the Military in a fully digital cockpit. If we rush certain things on startup or change one step during the display boot sequence it can cause a number of issues that manifest during flight. This will cause us to either have to reset certain systems by pulling circuit breakers or shut down the aircraft and remove battery power then attempt to restart. Reading about the issue in that link seems like exactly the same issue. Most of these result around BUS driven electronics that require complex communication between different pieces of hardware. You might be mad that a $60k truck has these issues but I fly million dollar aircraft that experience the same issues.

Had the same issue as you Kaos94. Dealer replaced the screen over Thanksgiving. It’s back in the shop now for a non-responsive passenger mirror. Hope this is the last time. I’ve been to the dealer three times in less than 35 days.  At least the dealership is responsive and always very helpful!

Probably the same back seat design as the K2s which Rattle also.
There are a few threads on this issue.
 

Check your jack under the rear passenger seat ...I worked in a Chevy dealership before now at a Harley Dealership. Yes it’s a lot of money for the truck but it doesn’t matter if it was a Vega rattles are annoying so I isolate and corrected mine myself...more convenient than going to the dealer

I had the same problem on Christmas morning.  Except, we smelled burning wires and observed flickering lights on the controls just blow the screen.  I pulled the Infotainment fuses and called the dealer the next morning, dropped the truck off yesterday.  They put me in a loaner for an indefinite amount of time.

The K2 seat rattle noise comes from the driver side rear seat bracket that has a plastic clip.

The plastic clip either comes loose or falls off completely causing a metal on metal rattle.

Almost sounds like the Audio Amp is a problem if you have one. Some basic radios output directly to the speakers while the advance units will send the audio to the Amplifier. Have not seen

any schematics on the 2019s to verify the hardware layout.

Mine has the same problem, just bought the truck.. Started the truck screen was fine, put it in reverse and got the bubble view, then when I put it into drive the screen scrambled like shown in the photos, I turned off/restarted the truck and it went away.. I guess I'll see if it comes back

Just purchased a 2020 Sierra 1500 AT4.  It only has 500 miles on it.  Got in the truck today, and the audio had completely stopped working.  No radio (FM, AM, or XM), nothing from my phone via bluetooth or USB, no audio warnings for no seatbelt, etc., no voice recognition feedback....you get the picture.  Anyone else having this problem?  I see where this has been an issue for some of you, but no recent posts.  Any updates?

 

Taking it to the dealership today, will post if I hear anything about this problem.

I have a 2019 Silverado. The radio has been intermittently freezing. Chevy has already replaced the unit, and it started happening again. The touch screen does not work, sometimes the screen goes black, sometimes there is no sound, but the display works. Google assist never picks up on the first voice command. I always have to summon it a second time. My truck is currently at the dealership so that group engineers can look at it. They are tearing into electrical. I have heard this is happening to others. Anyone else have this problem and successfully get it fixed?

Yea,

Get them to the dealer so they can start brainstorming.

 

 

hahahahha

 

 

But yes mine is experiencing the same issues. Unresponsive touch screen, completely freezing up. Ive got a new one lately, starting the truck and having the radio volume blast to full for about 3 secs then goes back to normal. To be honest I would like to have the fish eye vs the standard view, it actually looks like there is a wider field of view.

I just bought a 2019 GMC Sierra SLT a couple weeks ago. Now that I just hit 1,000 miles my radio sound quit. No sound from: radio, blue oooh, XM, or anything. Very frustrating to have trouble so damn fast with a new vehicle.

      DTC P2C48 auxiliary cooling pump

      I tried tapping it.  This might sound like a dumb question, you should feel vibration or some type of noise when it turns on? Can someone please verify? Thank you all!

      first oil change - 2026 2500HD gas

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I feel better now for my own view point and actions or lack there of towards the dealership service theme reading your post and others. GM corporate is who offers the two free oil changes on the HD trucks and I bought my truck in Feb of 2025 and those oil change offers run out within 2 years I believe and I highly doubt I will be using either one of them. I had asked if I could officially give those free services to another customer ( a friend ) and they said no, its all a GM corporate thing based on the vehicle in question. What that service advisor did however was go into a little story about how such and such customer was denied engine warranty because he had done his own oil changes because then they are not documented ... you see where that goes and so an employee playing the game of scaring the customer into having the service work done there most certainly triggered my thought process. At a later date I did talk to the person who handles warranty claims at the dealership and she said to be sure to document the oil changes and keep receipts for the oil and filter ( coped the receipts from cases of Mobil oil and case of filters I bought from them ) and the vehicles VIN, the date of service, mileage etc and staple that together as a record I would give them if that was ever needed and I keep my own log book for services for each vehicle as well. Oh and about 8 months after I bought the truck the dealer starts calling me to offer a maintenance service since they haven't seen my vehicle show up on their system ... for the mere fee of 300.00 Canadian to change the oil and rotate the tires and a few other minor checks and I declined the offer, I get the call again a couple of months later for the same thing and she could tell I was not interested and she asked if they should take my name off the call list and I said yes, do that !.    By the way did you happen to keep your factory oil filter to open it up and see the surprises inside as I expect some will show up as per the odd little sliver of metal shaving and particles that the filter does trap along with bits of grey silicone sealer that come off of the inside edge of mating surfaces. I have cut open every filter so far on my truck although few miles but have changed the oil often and the second filter was vastly better with very little of anything, that first filter was the unsettling one as I expected it would be.

      I get why they do this…but man…not ideal. I only extract on inboard boat engines because the drains are buried and even then I hate it because it’s easy to leave a quart behind with that method.   They should market it as an “oil refresh” not oil change!

      I only get oil changed where I can watch. Valvoline pulls through the dipstick into a see thru glass. When done they show me the dipstick. About the only way they can mess up is using the wrong oil. But that secret wouldn’t stay secret long. Honda uses TQ wrenches on everything. You can watch through a plate glass window. Discount tires does that with tires. Trust but verify.

      I would not argue that with you. It would be pointless to argue against the truth and you speak the truth.    My question and in fact the entire point of this thread is an exploration into the levers of wear which happens no matter how well we maintain our powertrains.    Some of these levers we exert a good deal of influence over which can and do result is lower wear, longer powertrain life. Some others we are sort of stuck with.    An engine is typically done when the ring to bore seal no longer is able to do the job effectively. Normally the first thing to go in a engine otherwise well maintained and adult driven is this seal.    Looking into the means, methods, products and attitudes that influence the rate of wear seems a worthwhile inquiry to me.
