Well, it’s been 8 days since my tuck was towed to the dealership. Called several times with little to no update. Basically they said that they couldn’t replicate the issue I was having (glad I took pictures and video).  I’ll update everything once I have it back in my possession. I just don’t feel satisfied with the explanation I have been given, especially with the number of other people experiencing the same thing. On a side note, did you know that the over bed tail light leaks into the cab of the truck? Found that out today.

Dealer performed this recall this morning. I believe my warning lights were triggered from remote starting my truck from the myGMC app. I have tested using the remote start from the app since the recall and I have not had any warning lights since. Will update if I experience any issues.

If you have PIT 5728B PLEASE go back to your/a dealership and have them re-scan it in front of you for error codes after driving it for a few days. If you would like more extensive details on why, follow the link posted and read my entire comments on page 36. Summarized version is that the even with the PIT 5728B my truck still threw a brake malfunction code as well as two others after driving it for the week. Dealership cleared them only to be provided with 4 new error codes stating that there was an issue with the update during install and the dealership was unable to re-program the new brake module. They will be contacting GM on my behalf Monday on what to do with the truck because they are stumped at this point and GM has given me the run around and is now flat out ignoring my request for a vehicle buy back or swap. I was told by two GM reps that this was not occurring in the 2020s at all only to come on here to find out PIT 5730 is the remedy for brake failure on the 2020 model. Leaning towards a buy back at this point and swapping brands.

Anyone reporting their 2020’s with this issue? I am about to pull the trigger on a 2020 but this has me second guessing...

I had this happen today.  I purchased the 2020 silverado 2.7L Turbo 2 days ago with 5 miles on it.  Drove it a good amount yesterday and today and at 150 miles I hit the gas to go around a vehicle that cut me off and it felt like the engine shut down.  ESC light, brake light, tow light, and check engine light all came on.  It decelerated quickly going into a drive safe mode but I was unable to go over 20 mph.   Pulled it over, turned it off, restarted and everything went away except the check engine light.  On my way to the dealership, I gave it a little gas because I was going on a hill and it happened again.  Rinse repeat and finished my drive to the dealership, we'll see what they say.

just bought a 2020 trail boss LT 4 days ago, got in my truck this morning and saw check engine light on. check ESC message came up, i have exactly 300 miles on my truck so when i say brand new, i mean brand new. i myself have put maybe 100 of those miles on it in the 4 days i have had it. this should not be happening. hopefully no other problems occur but taking it to dealer at some point today...

I just had the same issue. Service esc, steering assist reduced, etc. The thing that concerns me is that I have already had the recall/reprogramming done. Has anyone else had this happen to them?  I have to drive 10 hours tomorrow with a trailer but I’m wondering if I should.

I have a 2020 RST ,3.0 diesel.today I stopped at a restaurant for maybe 45 minutes ,came and fired the truck up and got the “service power steering “ message.I had no per sreering though the truck appeared to allow me to drive.but the was no way I was steering out of that parking lot...Not Happy.i turned the truck off and google and found this thread among others...I ended up turning the truck off and on three more times.And like it never happened it went away and I drove off.This is not a  characteristic of a dependable truck.

Picking up my truck tomorrow after the 5th attempt to repair. Will post repair details and updates. 

 

Anyone else have a permanent fix?

I have 64000kms on my 19 trailboss. Never had an issue with this System at all. Went to dealer for something different and they did the brake recall. Now truck has all the lights on, engine power reduced, service ecs, check engine, abs lights.

Contact a lemon law lawyer. 5 attempts is most likely a lemon in every state. Get rid of it ASAP. I had 3 brake failures on my 2019 and 3 repair attempts for the failures I experienced. The dealership experienced one on a repair they did (technically 4 repair attempts which is a lemon in TX) but, did not note the repair on my invoice. The dealership denied ever doing the repair when I asked them to put it on a repair order for me. When I sent them a voicemail they left me stating that the repair did not work as well as forward them an email that was sent from the service advisor that they changed the vacuum pump but I would NOT see it on my repair order the dealership offered to buy my truck back in full because they knew they were caught in a lie and I was going to lemon the truck. I work in construction and need my truck so to save time and hassle I took a 20 on an MSRP swap. So far no issues on the 20. If i have any issues before it's titled they will buy the new truck back in full.

I live in Canada and the process is a lot harder than the US from what i have read.

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
