I've been having the same problem with my 2019 Sierra base.  Sometimes goes black with sound but can't switch stations, sometimes no sound and sometimes freezes and when I get out and lock the truck the radio doesn't shut off.   I had similar problems with my 2016 Buick, but that was fixed with an update.

I've been trying something different,  I've noticed that when not having my phone plugged into the usB port on the dash using bluetooth only, I haven't had anymore problems so far, so I'm thinking if it's the cord or the USB port on the dash. More towards the usb port because when my phone is plugged in it still charges my phone. Still seeing what happens. I've just had 2 updates at once a few days ago.

2019 Sierra base two weeks old - same problem. You dontvfrustration until you are in northern Canada with 500km ahead and nothing works. Long 6 hours I tell you - no one on road, no 6owns, no noise, snowing... nearly lost my mind. Back in civilization now off this is not fixed I will v. Unhappy. Yes tried everything to get it to reset.

I had the same problems with the previous 18 gm car that I have with my 19 custom. I will say tho the stereo in my 03 hd was a pos also tho so it's nothing new.   Radio is black one day the next it works but nothing on the screen works.  I'll try those few things temporarily but with 1500 miles on it this shouldn't happen. Other than the radio I love the truck...its a shame.

You might be on to something I have only had it happen when the phone is plugged in, didn’t really think about that until you mentioned it. My cable is good it’s high quality and new.

gmc  pickup   - aug 2019  when the salesperson gave me the tour,  the radio did not work, then after several attempts it worked - they pretended they had never seen this before..   3000km  later not fixed.  Tried software , same problem and they said that they will change the radio .     not confident that they will fix the problem - seems to be a bad design -   they new it when they sold me the new truck -crappy for an expensive truck. will let you know.   Time to get an agency involved (consumer).

So what is the fix for this as my husband had his to the dealer when it first started  happens at least 2 times a week, they told him to update his phone, lmao in other words they have no clue, any one find something that worked?

Same thing here: its happened with my truck (26k miles) & it appears to be related to apple-car play or the usB connection. When mine goes black I hit the “home” button on my dash & use it on bluetooth. Seems to work that way, so im guessing we either have bad usb ports or Apple car-play is the culprit

Same problem  and I have never plugged anything into my Phone.   

They said a software update was required - they had  it for 4 hours and said that the upload is complete.    Next day , the radio quit. 3 dys later it worked - so I checked the latest update report on the radio - it said June 1970 - 50 yrs ago.      I don't believe that there is a fix.  I will ask for my money back!

You'll have to find out your states lemon laws, it will require a certain amount of attempts to repair the same issue without the repair being successful. In my state it is 4 attempts and/or the vehicle is inoperable in the shop for at least 30 days. 

 

I've done the lemon law process before, but not for an issue like this, so not sure if it will apply being an infotainment issue, but believe it should.

    • Are you playing Slide Down endlessly but your score is still low? Are you constantly crashing into obstacles as the game speed increases? Don't worry, this article will share 5 invaluable tips to help you master the race and impress your friends. Golden Rules 1. Look one step further. The mistake of 90% of new players is only staring at their character. The secret of experts is to look towards the top of the screen (where the slide is about to appear). This gives your brain an extra 0.5 - 1 second to process the situation and determine the direction of movement before the obstacle approaches. 2. Use gentle movements; don't swipe too hard. Slide Down is very sensitive. Moving your finger too forcefully or with excessive amplitude will cause your character to be thrown off course or crash into a wall. Practise moving your finger with small, decisive, and precise movements. 3. Don't be greedy for gold in dangerous locations. Gold coins are tempting for buying skins, but life is more important. If you see a gold coin right on the edge of a cliff or next to a spike trap, ignore it. Our goal is a High Score, and your score only increases if you survive. 4. Make the most of Power-ups. During the slide, you'll encounter items like Magnets (attract gold) or Shields (temporary invincibility). Never miss them! Especially the Shield, it's your "get out of jail free card" to help you get through those deadly fast sections. 5. Stay calm when speed peaks. When your score exceeds 500 or 1000, the game speed will be very fast. At this point, don't try to think logically; let your natural reflexes work. Take deep breaths and don't panic. Apply these 5 tips to your next game, and your leaderboard will surely improve dramatically. Good luck climbing the Slide Down leaderboard!
    • If you use compressed air regularly, one problem you cannot ignore is moisture. Water in the air line can cause rust, unstable air pressure, poor tool performance, and even damage to sensitive equipment. That is why I highly recommend using a desiccant air dryer. A desiccant air dryer is designed to remove moisture from compressed air by using drying materials such as activated alumina or molecular sieve. Compared with basic water separators, it can achieve much lower dew points, making it especially useful for applications that require dry and stable air. For workshops, painting systems, pneumatic tools, CNC machines, laser cutting equipment, and industrial production lines, a desiccant air dryer can make a big difference. It helps protect equipment, improve air quality, reduce maintenance costs, and extend the service life of the whole compressed air system. Another advantage is reliability. Many desiccant air dryers are built for continuous operation and can maintain stable drying performance even in demanding environments. For users who care about long-term efficiency and equipment protection, this is a smart investment. When choosing a desiccant air dryer, I suggest paying attention to air flow capacity, working pressure, dew point performance, regeneration method, and maintenance requirements. A good model should match your compressor system and actual air consumption. Overall, if moisture is causing problems in your compressed air system, a desiccant air dryer is definitely worth considering. It is practical, efficient, and highly useful for anyone who needs clean, dry, and reliable compressed air.
    • My brand new 2007 Silverado's wax frame was rust from end to end partway through it's SECOND winter here in MA. That stuff is completely useless.    
    • I went another direction after losing a trailer tire, thanks to not being able to access air at ANY of the 5 gas stations and garages I stopped at prior, with a Toyota Tacoma onboard, 50 miles from the Canadian border. They were either out of order, access was blocked, or the hose a few feet too short and I couldn't get any closer without risking damage to someone's property.   https://postimg.cc/gallery/X5QJ55w
    • I took a 12 second video on my iphone but the file is too big to upload. I will have to figure out how to extract the audio or just do another start with an audio recording.
