I just came across this thread while googling the same issue. I have a Brand new 2020 Silverado when the screen goes blank from time to time. I just got my first oil change and update and now the auto stop no longer works at red lights. Not a huge deal but interesting.

Correct if I'm wrong. Auto stop doesn't work at stop signs or in stop and go traffic also.?

I had this problem with my 19 trail boss, ended up taking it to the dealer, they removed the radio went to install new one and realized they ordered the wrong one. Reinstalled the old radio and have not had a problem since. It has been around 8 months since they did this and have yet to have an issue before this it was happening every couple of weeks. Believe it was just loose connections as the problem has not reappeared..

How bout this , 1,500 miles on a 2019 Sierra 2 Dr w/t

98% of the time the radio comes on at start up even though it was turned off 
"Distracted" warning rarely appears
One time I turned the headlights to the on position from the auto
position and regained control of the infotainment center.
Radio loud spurts, 100% for a 1/4 of a second then back to where it
was.  Multiple times
Screen and buttons do not respond and has even gone black.  Multiple
times a week , not so much now.
Climate control blower--shut the truck off while the blower is running
@ any speed , re-start the truck later , blower comes full blast even
though the control was in the off position @ start up .  Regain
control by selecting any speed .

I bought my 2020 Chevy Trail Boss in March 2020. Since then ive had my screen go dark, and the volume stay on, while the truck is off, TWICE now.

The first time, I pulled into the driveway and noticed the display was black... I coudlnt turn off the radio and it was pretty loud. I closed the door and walked into the house, trying to call Chevy dealer to see if they knew of a fix.

No one called me back. Then when I went to check on the truck about 20 min later, the radio was off. I turned the truck on and the radio came on like normal.

 

The second time, which was today... I was waiting for my wife to come out of a friends house and had the truck in idle, with the AC on because its hot here.

After about 15 min of waiting, she got into the truck and I got onto the fwy and noticed the display was blank, but the radio was still on. I couldnt turn down the volume and I couldnt see anything on the display.

I wanted to call OnStar to see if they can diagnose it. The OnStar button was lit green and it didnt work. I pressed it several times and it didnt work. I held it for 10 seconds, just because... and it didnt work.

 

Once I got home, I turned off the truck and turned it back on and the display came on like normal.

 

This is dangerous in my opinion... what if I needed OnStar for an emergency and it was off??? 

 

Im taking my truck in later this week, into the dealership. I need this fixed or a they better work with me on getting a new vehicle. I love my truck, but I bought this thing new and this has happened twice in 4 months. I have under 2k miles on it too.

I have been having a similar issue with my 2019 Silverado RST. Random screen outage where screen goes black and shuts down. No music,no backup or trailering camera nor access to anything. System keeps trying to reboot. Sometimes successful, mostly not.  It has gotten to the point where I will be contacting the dealer today, since every trip over a couple of hours results in a screen outage and continuous reboot attempts.

I’m having similar issues. Screen has been black for several months. Just went blank one day and never came back. I can control from the wheel, but nothing from the dash. After some time the display on the gauges goes black as well can I can’t change the channel or volume from the wheel anymore until I restart the truck. Tried fuses, blue cable behind glove box and nothing.

Well here we are in July 2020 and my new 3500 Duramax that listed for $76k has a host of electrical problem. Info screen blacks out, DIC will not open the options for information and the drivers mirror will need to be replace for the second time in a month. Truck has 2800 miles on it. GM response is poor to non existent. Dealer is actually trying to resolve these problems but are bumping up against the GM protocol.

The previous gen had this issue where GM decided to ground a wire over a painted metal bracket, looks like similar things have been done with this gen. This is why Ill never buy another GM again just so many issues and lack of QC.

      The problem with failure rates or increase failures are there’s people who don’t have a problem. What are you doing wrong they say. We had 4 5.7 GM diesel’s in the family when they came out. One was flawless. My uncle who happened to be the most abusive. Early rotary engines were known to use oil. I abused my first car so bad in six months I replaced the clutch, transmission and rear end. It didn’t use oil. My brother in law has a 2013 Tahoe and an older Yukon. The Yukon has 280K miles. The Tahoe around 175K. He runs them to about 300K. If his lifters fail before that time he would consider it a failure. My Hondas, I know people hate it when I mention them. Identical engines. One with cylinder deactivation one doesn’t have it. One shudders when the eco light goes on or off. Cylinder deactivation. But wait! According to the web. It can happen with lock up too. So now people in the know are changing the oil and transmission fluid more often. Then you read it could be a programing issue. So what do you do? There’s lots of money involved. I see three ways to deal with it. One only works if you don’t drive lots of miles. Lease, never get out of warranty. Or only buy older vehicles with a good track record. They all have bad runs. Usually when there’s a change. Even Toyota and Honda.

      Question @diyer2 on this line if you please. Are you saying the shudder is the system turning on and off at the frequency of the shudder? Guess I'm asking if you are saying you have seen it do this with the bi-direction scan tool in graph mode? If so have you been able to discern the 'trigger'. Something is telling to cycle rapidly.    My truck just started doing this recently. 197K on the clock. My response has been M5 anything under 55 mph. I treat it like a lugging stick shift. Gear down and let it spin a bit. Engauge M5, then tow mode and then M6 lets the trans stay in 5th but the AFM is active. Smooth like Skippy.    My thought was that as a machine ages the friction gets lower and as the system is load based, the lower friction would allow it to turn on at ever lower rpm until it reaches the lugging point. And yes I am ignorant of any minimum rpm requirement for the system. If you know that would be useful information.    As you know I run a Scan-Gauge II which allows me to watch the On/Off of the signal to the VLOM. While in the shudder mode I'm not seeing is cycle at that frequency or at all for that matter outside the triggers @newdude posted a few years back. Now is it possible that the refresh rate isn't fast enough to catch it? Maybe. It is why I asked my first question about graphing and trigging parameter.     As we have observed from members here the failure point is all over the map miles wise as you note yourself in your opening post. That by itself begs a few questions like fellows that comment on these lifters failing even after the system has been disabled. Long after. 😬   https://www.enginelabs.com/news/tech-tips-replacing-ls-active-fuel-management-lifters-with-melling/   The Gen5 lifters operate the same as the LS versions. In fact they are the same lifter.    https://www.enginelabs.com/tech-stories/sorting-out-gen-v-lt-lifter-failure-with-a-simple-valvetrain-fix/

      14-18 Sierra 1500 Heated Steering Wheel Help

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      UPDATE 2: Steering wheel control backlights and control of the cluster can supposedly be achieved by adding a wire to pin 20 of the cluster and tapping it to pin 2 of the main clock spring harness. I'm going to give it a shot - will update

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By newdude · Posted

      GM Global A pickups 2019-2022 can do OTA programming for the radio.  GM VIP (GM Global B) can do OTAs for almost every module on board.  So a 2022.5 and newer pickup can do OTAs for recalls like the 2.7 fuel flow recall.  EVs get OTAs that improve one pedal driving, radio issues, HVAC issues, updated battery management software, etc.     So age of the vehicle/what GM electrical platform its on will alter what amount of updates can be pushed on OTAs.
