Your welcome. Not gonna lie you made me chuckle pretty good today. In all seriousness tho, guys are buying a new model year truck experience some issues come to a forum and rant about issues. It’s a risk you take. I know I’ve been there when I purchased my 2014 and now my 2018 L5P. Life’s too short to bitch and complain about. In the end it’s just a truck and it’s just money, trucks can be replaced and money can be made. Don’t sweat the small stuff. That’s what warranty and the dealers are for. If your not getting the survice or the dealer is dicking you around change dealers. Everyone has that option. If that still not solving issues switch brands. I hope your dealer and everyone else that has a 2019 gets there trucks all solved and taken care of. I didn’t mean to cause any waves. 

Didn't realize that I was ranting or raving about anything. Simply asking others if they were experiencing the same thing.

Not once did I mention any names in this thread. Don’t realize how some people on this forum take things so personal and literary. It’s called a figure of speech. Or is it I’m too old and the young population these days takes everything to heart. I guess I’m just an old grumpy fart.

Is anyone having issues with the 2019 Sierra radio stating “tuner unavailable”? We just got the truck back from the dealer for a different warranty issue. A new steering column replaced and rack and pinions replaced. Now radio doesn’t work. Thanks!!!

People come to this great forum to ask about problems because they are seeking to educate themselves before a dealer trip.  No need to show distain for posters.

If the other inputs USB, phone etc  work might be they disconnected and forgot to reconnect the radio cable portion of the antenna, or screwed up the connections with the rear radio buttons when reinstalling the steering wheel.

My Chev TB LT did this a couple of days ago.  I was in the garage leaving for work.  I assumed it was because I was in the garage and didn't have a good XM signal.  After I backed out the radio came on fine.  I also read somewhere that XM may be having some signal issues.  Mine's not done it since.

I have a 2019 Colorado.  The entertainment system "usually" reboots about a minute after I start the truck.  If the system was playing a song via bluetooth it will come back playing both the radio and the song on my iPhone (interesting).  I took it to the dealer and in three days they could not reproduce.  To be clear I kept statistics (because I was worried about the unable to reproduce problem ) and it was well above 95% of starts this happened.  Now with that said, they did not have my iPhone.  This leads me to believe that it may have something to do Bluetooth.  I thing when the phone connects it uploads its address book and perhaps other things to the entertainment system and perhaps this is going back.  Now that I have it back (unresolved) im going to start playing with bluetooth off/on etc.  Truck had all the newest software (via over the air updates) so theoretically no change was made at the dealer when it wasn't being fixed.  We will see.  Clearly these kinds of things are not Chevys strong point ? . That said i love the truck.

this is absolutely because you were in the garage. You’ll find with XM anytime you have a structure over head that’ll happen.

I purchased my new LTZ a week or so ago and this morning, the radio would not emit any sound. Pulled up XM and local stations, but no sound would come out. I got out of the truck and it sat for about an hour or so, and when I got back in it, everything worked fine.

Mine randomly restarts all the time. I find it happens more when I have it plugged into Apple car play. I’ve also had the blue screen of death twice when I put truck in reverse. I really do think I have a short or poor ground connection.

Infotainment system crashes, goes completely black, no power, nothing.  Inconsistent, at best. Dealer doesn’t have a clue.  4300 miles on 2019 Sierra.  Very disappointed.  Assistant Mgr told me my I phone might be causing the problem (lmao).  It crashed again last night with my phone turned off....

Heading back to the dealer this morning.

I have the same problem. Less than 1000 miles on my 2020 Custom though. Crashes periodically when I am using apple play.

    • Thanks everyone for the help!   I'm going to stop into the scales one of these days and weigh my axels, for the time being, I am going to run Toyo's recommendations and also do a chalk test. I have a tire shop that's going to try their scanner to reprogram and set the the factory psi values lower, and if they can't I'm going to order a scanner and do it myself!
    • You won’t do better than stock exhaust without headers. Just put your favorite muffler on it and it will do the job. 
    • I have seen different people in different places post different sizes of exhaust as stock for my 2014 Sierra L83. Some say 2.5 some say 2.75. I am considering replacing the muffler with a Dynomax Super Turbo, perhaps 17739.  I had the factory L83 5.3 replaced with another L83 5.3 from Jasper Engines. I also put new Walker Cat / Y pipe on. I would appreciate opinions suggestions about what would be a good muffler setup. My main interest is a low rumble and the best flow / fuel mileage I can get. Not interested in straight through glass packs or loud exhaust. Those days are way behind me now.  Thanks Guys.  
    • Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB 20-NA-166 -  20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"     I'd say its the head, and its either leaking at the casting line and dripping down the intake into the cylinder, or its another spot on the casting itself at the cylinder that is getting wet.  
    • Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.
