Has anyone else experienced problems with the door handle button locks, mine won't unlock  any door on the truck when I press the button. I have tried both of my fobs n they won't unlock. The fobs them selves will unlock the door so it seems the batteries are good. Any help will be good, taking the truck to the dealer tomorrow for my ONE measly oil change n tire rotate,

Just found out that the door handle button locks the door but won't open ?????

I vaguely remember there being some settings in the infotainment for passive locks. Any chance one of those settings changed themselves?

Go into the settings menu in the infotainment system.  You can set what you want the handle buttons to do.

I didn't see anything in the setting menu for door handle locks, but will double check again. Plus they worked before and I know I didn't change nothing on any setting

It's in there.  Settings>Vehicle>Remote Door Lock ect. 

 

I don't see an option to fully turn off Passive unlock, just select between driver and all doors. But there is an option to turn off passive lock... I wonder if they relate. 

 

Wish they didn't have a stupid button to push.  My old car has touch sensitive pads on the back of the handle.  So naturally as you opened it, it unlocked.

Yeah that's a temporary disable with a re-enable.  If you go into   Settings>Vehicle>Remote Lock, Unlock, and Start you can set what the buttons do under Passive Door Lock and Passive Door Unlock.  Mine is set to unlock only drivers door if pressed once on the drivers door button and unlock all doors if pressed twice.  Pressing any door handle button while unlocked with lock all doors.  I also have automatic locking enabled for 5 secs after closing all doors

I go into my settings and I see nothing about door locks. Unless your truck is set up for that as an option, not sure

Hmmm.  The only thing I can think of is do you have Convenience Package 2? My truck is fully loaded so maybe the different radios have different options in the settings?

No I don't have that package but I wish I did.

That has to be why you dont have the additional options in the menu.  I will post some step by step pics shortly just to make sure.

Here are the complete step by step instructions to get to the Passive door locks settings.

 

1.  From the main menu, click Settings.

4.  Click the down arrow to scroll down once and then you will see the two Passive door options.  From here, you will be able to change the settings.

Let me know if you try this and you dont have these options.  Just curious if my theory about Convenience Package 2 is correct.

Not the solution you're looking for,  but GM has had the 'double-handle-pull' method for a long time.

 

Pull the door handle once to unlock the door.

Pull again to open the door. 

 

It will also work on non-driver doors passengers to get out when truck is still in gear.

Mone does that to get out while in gear but doesn't work for getting in.

    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.  
    • Yes your absolutely right, I been looking at the 4 inch BDS one and it acutely states you can use the stock 20’s just not the 17’s or 18’s, I also didn’t realize that with my 275/60r20 stock wheels I’m already running 33 inch diameter wheel setup lol so I can just run my stock wheels and tires atleast to start.
    • I would expect that to be lift-kit dependent.  If the kit has interference issues w stock wheels, then the kit/manufacturer should indicate that somewhere.
    • That’s what I’m wondering is if the stock backspacing of the factory wheels will clear new upper control arms and such
