Sad part is this thread starts in 2019!  I have a 2021 that has had the infotainment freeze up on a few occasions.  A few times in 20 months isnt a huge dealbreaker, but IT HAPPENS AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIME.  I’m not talking just the radio,  but the GPS maps freezing up.  A convoluted highway ramp exchange coming up and FREEZE.  The only remedy is pulling over, shutting off the truck, and waiting  for it to TIME OUT before restarting and hoping it fixes itself.  So far it has, but… what a nuisance.  You would have thought they could have fixed this stuff already!!   INFOTAINMENT is $#!t.

This is certainly not what we like to hear, Theynine.  Please know, customer satisfaction is extremely important to us. Our team would be more than happy to take a closer look into the concerns with your 2021 truck. To do so, please send an email to [email protected] with ATTN: Theynine/GM Trucks in the subject line.

Please include your contact information, VIN, a brief description of your concern, and the name of your preferred dealership. We look forward to hearing from you. To learn more about GM’s privacy policy, please visit https://www.gm.com/privacy-statement.html.

I purchased  my 2019 Silverado on 3/9/19, 2 weeks later the infotainment screen displayed black and blue lines horizontally for 3-5 seconds, then the screen turned black, 5 seconds later smoke began r

And you wont. Pretty sure the @GMCustomerService is just a bot. the only responses people get back are "canned replies" If GM really cared about customer service they would put out fixes instead of ju

I'll plug my phone in and everything works fine for about 5 minutes then my music pauses and the screen freezes for about 15 minutes then comes back on. It is an absolute joke. Anyone have this problem?

I just bought a 2024 GMC Sierra 1500 Elevation and only had it a little over two weeks and the infotainment system would freeze up every morning, I learned how to factory reset it because nothing worked except the steering wheel controls. This has been happening since, I finally was able to get the service  department to get it in, now I have to leave it with them for a week to run teat and see, I’m discussed with this especially after spending all this money on it.

I have a 2019 Tahoe with the same issue. Has anyone found any sort of fix?

 

We understand how infotainment concerns can be disheartening, and we would like to investigate this matter further on our end. To get started, please send us an email to [email protected]. Be sure to include your Username and Forum name in the subject line with additional details. We look forward to hearing from you.

@GMCustomerService

 

I sent an email with details, pictures, and even my VIN #. Have not heard back.

And you wont. Pretty sure the @GMCustomerService is just a bot. the only responses people get back are "canned replies" If GM really cared about customer service they would put out fixes instead of just ignoring them and waiting for the product life to expire.

@lennybg I suspect you are correct.

 

It is odd that there are no real solutions in this thread and that most people who post only do so once and then never again. 

 

I know a lawyer who does class action suits against car companies.  I will ask him if these problems have already been to court.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By newdude · Posted

      No such thing as regenerative braking on a pure ICE vehicle.     Regenerative braking is the re-capture of energy from electric motors and stores it in the battery pack.  So hybrids, PHEV and EVs have regenerative braking.     What you are seeing is the charging system changing modes is all.  Its likely entering charge mode for some sort of reason is all.  All of the charging modes will be listed below.   As for L10 vs D.  L10 turns off automatic grade braking.  L10 puts you in control of grade downshifts where in D it will automatically do it based on brake pedal position and other factors.  Otherwise L10 and D drive exactly the same aside from that one aspect.    Battery Sulfation Mode The BCM will enter this mode when the interpreted Generator output voltage is less than 13.2 V for 45 minutes. When this condition exists the BCM will enter Charge Mode for 2–3 minutes. The BCM will then determine which mode to enter depending on voltage requirements.   Charge Mode The BCM will enter Charge Mode when ever one of the following conditions are met:   Windshield wipers are ON for more than 3 s. Climate Control Voltage Boost Mode Request is true, as sensed by the HVAC control module via serial data. High speed cooling fan, rear defogger, and HVAC high speed blower operation can cause the BCM to enter the Charge Mode. The estimated battery temperature is less than 0°C (32°F). Battery State of Charge is less than 80%. Vehicle speed is greater than 145 km/h (90 mph) A current sensor malfunction exists. System voltage is determined to be below 12.56 V When any one of these conditions is met, the system will set targeted generator output voltage to a charging voltage between 13.9–15.5 V, depending on the battery state of charge and estimated battery temperature.   Fuel Economy Mode The BCM will enter Fuel Economy Mode when the estimated battery temperature is at least 0°C (32°F) but less than or equal to 80°C (176°F), the calculated battery current is less than 15 A and greater than −8 A, and the battery state-of-charge is greater than or equal to 80%. Its targeted generator output voltage is the open circuit voltage of the battery and can be between 12.5–13.1 V. When fuel economy mode is active, the generator is not charging, only maintaining open circuit battery voltage. The BCM will exit this mode and enter Charge Mode when any of the conditions described above are present.   Headlamp Mode The BCM will enter Headlamp Mode when ever the head lamps are ON (high or low beams). Voltage will be regulated between 13.9–14.5 V.   Start Up Mode When the engine is started the BCM sets a targeted generator output voltage of 14.5 V for 30 s.   Tow/Haul Mode (if applicable) Pressing the Tow/Haul Mode button located on the center stack, the vehicle system voltage is raised and the remote (non-vehicle) battery will be charged. Having the headlamps on will raise the system voltage and if the Tow/Haul button is applied it will not serve any purpose. The voltage is regulated between 13.9-14.5 V.

      Active Grille Delete

      Hello from Australia Just sharing that there is now a way to delete the active shutters entirely with just a plug in module. Opens up tons of room to light bars etc.

      Gasser Subforum Has Been Quiet - - So, Regenerative Braking and Using L10

      By jake111 · Posted

      I have an observation and a question... 1) I watch the voltage closely because I have had to dial in the cut-in/cut-out voltages of the battery separator to my camper.  The "smart" charging drives me nuts.  Anyway, I noticed that when coasting for a while, and especially if lightly using the brakes (though not necessary), the voltage goes up from mid/high-13 volts to mid/high-14 volts.  Then it drops back down after stopping or going again.  Consistently!   The only explanation I can come up with is REGENERATIVE BRAKING!  Well, maybe that's a little bit of an exaggeration, but it's certainly free extra battery charging.   2) Driving on mountain roads I will use L and vary the max gear.  Things straighten out and I end up in L10.  Sometimes I leave it there for a while.  Is there any difference between L10 and D?

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter
