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.

    • On the subject of OLM, Gm's OLM tool may be more "informed" than others brands. I recall OLM's in mid-2000's Chrysler products literally counting down a set number of miles. That's all the OLM appeared to be.    I would actually expect GM to be able to explain the parameters that their OLM takes into account from a high level. No, I would not expect them to disclose their software coding or data analysis around their parameters.   So we're talking about two different topics, so to continue the subject on the other one, I'd be curious to know how much "standard particulate matter" in fresh oil is able to be filtered at first start by a fresh oil filter. How much particulate matter is enough to "matter"?   I.e. how much of a "lever" do we think this equates to (variability in particulate content, in fresh oils, between different makes/brands, some which filter less, and some that filter more).   We can say that more particles = more wear = shorter engine life as a logical statement and use that data with a little marketing to scare people into selecting a more refined/filtered oil. Using a similie, is this like deciding to forego two alcoholic drinks in a lifetime because we're worried about the potential impact on lifespan? Are there numbers which translate the ISO test results into a quantifiable increase in wear for a given engine/use case?
    • I'm pretty sure it doesn't actually recalibrate the speedometer it just changes the wheel speed sensor inputs to the computer. The truck still thinks it has stock tires.
    • I apologize, I missed this post, at risk of going off CURRENT TOPIC.   I'm not saying it is BS, I'm questioning how much information is being held back. GM is NOT going to spell out exactly every parameter in the algorithm. Liability, intellectual property, etc.    I'm not naive enough to believe that it is as simple as revolutions, coolant temperature, miles, time; are you?    I don't do irrational either, and boiling the OLM down to four simple values that I could code in an afternoon (I'm not a coder) is irrational - unless it suits your agenda to ignore it. 
    • Chris 21 I appreciate your constructive response. !!  😉😉😉   The 6.6 is gas.  Correct me if I’m wrong but by recalibrating the speedo you’re correcting the shift points of the transmission on these trucks.?.
    • That is a huge misconception.     Bigger does not always equal safer.  Modifying does not make it safer either, with exceptions.   Think of this.  Your truck in stock form is capable of emergency maneuvers, proper stopping distances, its handling is designed around the factory wheel/tire packages, etc.   37s and a lift?  Now you've affected your braking distances, handling and ride control.  You've raised your center of gravity higher.  Your front visibility is now obstructed more than stock, same for your rear.  Does it look cooler?  Yes.  Does it now work as good as it did from factory on road?  NO.       As for my mention of exceptions?  Say you had a sedan or crossover.  They typically come with all season tires.  If you swap out for a performance all season or a summer tire, you improve your car by lowering its stopping distance (better braking because of traction) and improve the handling (regular and emergency) of the vehicle.  That is an actually improving modification.  My old 2019 LD 1500, I ran UHP all season tires on 20in wheels in a factory offered size.  It improved all aspects of how it drove over the Duratracs it came with from the factory in the stock 18" tire.
