My lawyer just reached a settlement with GM over the intermittent black screen issue with my 2019 Silverado 1500 WT.  After multiple unsuccessful attempts by the dealer to repair it,  I contacted a California Lemon Law lawyer.   GM repurchased my truck for the full price that I originally paid for it plus penalties to settle the case.    Gonna buy a FORD.

What ended up happening after the lawyer got involved?

GM settled the case by repurchasing my truck for the full price paid plus penalties.

I have a 2019 Chevy TrailBoss and the same thing has been happening with mine too. We’ve called the dealership and they said it’s due to the heat or hot weather (we live in Arizona) but to turn it off for a few minutes and turn back on and it should work. Didn’t fix it. It turns on/off whenever it wants. It’s been happening ever since. It happened again today and it was 75° This morning when I turned on my truck. I read somewhere else that someone was told it was due to the “cold weather” in their area. Sounds like an excuse to me. It’s July of 2022 and still no fix for this. This is disappointing considering what we paid for this truck.

O.K. well I guess I am not alone on this subject. I have not seen any recent posts about this since 2019. It is now 2021 and I just experienced this issue on my 2019 Trail Boss. Not controls, blank screen and the radio could not be turned off or down, or change the channel. I turned the truck off then on again. Nothing... When I arrived at home, I checked fuses all good. I went to back it into the garage and it magically worked. No clue how or why. I did not reset, pull fuses or anything. It just decided to work again, which worries me more as this sounds like such an intermittent problem, like most electrical issues (goblins in the wires). Anyone have a fix or has GM announced a fix yet?

It is July of 2022 and my truck is still doing the same thing. It’s terrible. Haven’t heard of a fix as of yet

Happened to me on my trip last week, about 3 hours on the road and screen went blank and I couldn't do anything to reboot it.  Tried shutting the truck down and quickly restarting but that didn't work either.  Shut it down again and waited a few minutes (was going to disconnect the battery but found I didn't have the right wrench) so I started it again and it came back on. 

 

It only happened the one time, hoping it doesn happen again and that it was just a fluke... but after reading this thread I'm skeptical!

My 2019 2500hd is garage kept and babied. Just rolled 30k kilometers and the radio just went dead and black as well. Just my luck, warranty expired in June. Has there been a resolve to this issue? If its programming would I really have to pay out of pocket for a fix?

I try to keep up with different threads on this issue, its hard now due to the list is so big. I have had this issue since 2020 when I got the truck and see its still going on with 2022 models. I'm getting the feeling that GM isn't looking into this. I would like to know why they are still selling the truck knowing its not working? The truck doesn't seem to have any other issues. My dealer just put in a new screen and then said just keep calling back to see if there is any updates. The GM person that reads these posts has been in touch with me but they aren't doing anything. They keep saying keep in touch with my dealer for updates. I would hope that someone would wake up and fix it. We keep having more people buying trucks with this issue, when are they going to take this serious.

When I do this, like today when I dropped my truck off for the belt squealing, they always tell me that the video is “nice” but it has to do it when it’s there for them to do anything at all…

Taking in my 2019 GMC Sierra Denali for the infotainment center going black.  It's been 2 1/2 weeks with nothing no radio, nav, phone or back up camera's on either the screen or the steering wheel.  Talked to service writers at 3 different dealerships to see if anyone knew about the black screen, nope never heard of it.  Called a fourth and bingo they have heard of it.  Per the service writer "just so you aware it will be over a $1,000 to fix it" doesn't know what the problem is but it will be over $1,000 to fix it.  Are you kidding me???? 

 

I read through the comments and tried the things that worked for others checked the fuses, held down the power for the radio and disconnected the battery which lead to other issues most resolved themselves but the lights on the radio controls stay on.  Came back outside and checked the lights stayed on 3 hours with the truck turned off so I pulled that fuse out.  Don't want have to buy another battery too.  

 

The software updates seem to be a common issue updating the HMI firmware or the V155 update for the 2021 models.  

 

Had my 2006 Chevy 2500hd Duramax for 16 years until it was stolen.  Didn't need the diesel anymore so I bought this truck seems to be a piece of crap having emission equipment issues and now the black screen.  Regrets.

      There's some truth to the above, but also, she's selling fullsize trucks and bread/butter CUV's like hotcakes, meanwhile, extracting GM's pickups from the deep discounting sales game.   GM's stock has held its own during her tenure, and the more recent buybacks are delivering cash back to investors and signal confidence in their direction forward. Even with the EV losses.   GM is an example of a modern publicly traded company. The #1 goal of any publicly traded company is to deliver the most value possible to shareholders. Despite being a car company, building the best car isn't GM's path to delivering maximum shareholder value.   McDonalds doesn't make the best burger, or the best coffee.   I've mentioned in another thread, I really don't / won't ever understand Cadillac or Buick in a modern context. Both brands are completely dead to me. I'll cede that the Escalade is a nice SUV, but the brand and nameplate mean nothing to me, and GM will never persuade me to pay north of $170k for a gussied-up Tahoe or Burb. Other people don't mind doing that and that's their purview.   The C8 shares absolutely nothing in common with any other current Chevrolet or Corvette on the market. Since its introduction 8 years ago, it's developed quite the following. It did what other Corvettes couldn't do: reduce the average age of its buyer. GM has something there, and I see them investing in the car. They'd better not mess that up.   We've successfully derailed Grumpy's thread again, but I think this one is meant to be more of a random thought thread so a little wandering is probably OK.

      Sliding doors ftw   Also, Sienna ftw as well.  The in-laws got a 2024-2025 recently when their 2019 sienna was totaled due to a deer back in June.  They've been getting 38-40mpg on the 65mph highway they live on.

      Forgot to mention that this started after changing the oil I use mobile 1 full syn with mobile one filter but I did add pro lube additive and was the first time doing so and is making me wonder just can't see why that would matter

      07 yukon xl 6.2 stalls at hot idle and wont restart

      By xdieselmechanic · Posted

      I apologize for long post put going to try to explain everything. Parts replaced so far: Cam sensor Crank sensor Cam phaser valve Cam phaser solenoid Fuel pump Maf 1 injector Pcm Pdm   So about 2 weeks ago coming off the highway my 2007 yukon xl with the 6.2 stalled and would restart. Had unit towed back to house and I messed around with relays and unit started. Drove it the next day and same thing. Had it towed again. Scanned unit and had code p0300 with misfire data showing mainly cylinder 7 but I know that won't cause a no start. Measure fuel pressure and found only 42 psi replaced pump to have unit stall again and not restart. This time I stayed on back roads and just waited for it to restart about 30 to 60 min. During this time I found I have no injector pulse but have good power at injectors. Started unplugging 1 injector at a time and found when unplugging cylinder 7 pulse came back so i changed injecto and same issue. Turns out unit just happen to ready to start at that time. Scanned into unit and found no reason for the pcm to take away injector pulse so I replaced the pcm and same issue. I figured timing sesnor controlled the injector pulse so I replaced both sensors and while I had the water pump of i replaced the vvt components while i was in there. Read multiple people have luck chaging the maf for this issue so I changed it. Unit still stalls to this day and loses injector pulse on the ground side when it does. Have noticed watching the live data the pcm is request injectors to fire via injector pwm value. I have redone the ground wires at the left bottom of the block knowing this was the ground location for the pcm but still no luck. I am a mechanic by trade but this is having me pull my hair out. If anyone has something to have me check I will gladly im not much of a parts thrower but im about to load the cannon

      auto mechanical driver's door unlock without pressing button? [2026 Silv. 1500 WT 4WD RC SB 2.7L]

      By newdude · Posted

      Actually.  Wait.   I just re-read your original post.  Are you talking from INSIDE the truck you have to hit unlock?  Or from the key fob?  I had assumed from the key fob.   IF you are talking the inside unlock button, I assume you are shifting to park and its not unlocking the doors?  If so, that is changed via the settings page in the radio.  Go to SETTINGS, then VEHICLE and then it should be under LOCKS or DOOR LOCKS or something like that.
