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!!!

Was it before or after March 2019?

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.

    • Late reply, but yes—it works on the SLT trim. Compatibility comes down to the plastic shroud shape behind your mirror, not the trim badge itself. On the SLT with auto-dimming, it uses a plug-and-play Y-harness off the mirror/rain sensor power, so no need to run wires down to the OBD port. If anyone's ever unsure about fitment, just drop a photo of your mirror housing and we can double-check it.   Appreciate the detailed feedback on the install! On the windshield glare—we actually took feedback like yours and developed a dedicated CPL (polarizer) filter to cut down dash reflections on sunny days. If you're still running the cam, shoot me a DM. I'd be happy to send a CPL filter over for you to test out—no charge. 
    • There are no stickers in your glovebox?
    • Look at the numbers on the stickers in the door jam...
    • Yes, every time the developer updates his code, you must recompile. I will private message you with the latest because it changes pretty much with every version.
    • After I wrote that reply I went for a ride. 85 F out. So trans started at 85 F and it shifted the same as it did an hour latter at 168 F. I've never actually recorded the to cold to shift point but it is under 32 F before they start hanging on to a lower gear or leaving the converter unlocked. Both intended to heat fluid.    Yes, brake or bake. Absolutely.      Your welcome. True research ended decades ago. Field trials are still in play.    There is a thing called oxidation onset temperature. This is the heat related oxidation not the O2 exposure kind. For mineral oil that starts at 140 F. So what happens after 140 F? Each 20 F cuts fluid life in half! Does using a Full Synthetic improve that? Yes! By how much? Depends on the base oil type and a few other factors. But enough to notice. Some esters are even higher. There are even synergies between types the will raise it higher than any one component is alone.    Then there is "Hindered" oils. Antioxidant additives. Hindered Polyol Esters can sit at 500 F for years in a turbine.   When a blender brags his oil will 'take 500 F" in service he doesn't specify for how long. Water will dance on a 500 F hot plate for several seconds. @newdude put up a chart showing the relationship between fluid temperature and it's life in an automatic transmission. Here's a version of that chart for Group III based oils. These temperatures are those in the pan as observed as 'normal'. that is you drive as you do for as long as you do under what load you ask of it and whatever that temperature is this graph applies to. Flash temperatures of a few minutes isn't what his means.    Note that fluids held at a constant 240 F have a service life of only 20K miles. 220 F explains the factory exchange limit, eh? My equipment I keep under 180 F and I'm good if the cooler will hold it as low as 140 F. But that's me.
