My 2020 did not come with an SD navigation card.  Dealership told me I could buy one and utilize the nav system "offline" (no subscription services, no data plan).  Have not found good info online so far that says the same...  Can anyone confirm?  If I buy  a card and plug it in will this work?  Where do I buy the card?

Same thing on my 2019 with 800 miles on it. GMC needs some quality controls at the plant. Now I remember why I have been driving Lexus for ten years -never a problem. 
 
dealer said that they will order a new card reader but don’t think that’s the problem. I guess I don’t have nav in my $70k vehicle why they try to figure out what their problem is. 
 
**update: flipped the switch on the card and now it works. Not going to tell the dealer just in case but Nav is working again now

My wife had a NX200t F Sport and had nothing but problems with her radio, traded it and got an Acadia Denali. All brands have issues

I am having the same problem with my 2019 Colorado ZR2, and haven't been able to use the Navigation system  properly in months due to this!

 

Corporate had me bring my truck in to a dealer for a software update; Version 807, which they stated will be released as an over the air update in January.

 

They stated they were absolutely confident that this would solve the problem, as the software was created to solve this particular problem.

 

Well… guess what… the problem remains!

 

Beyond upsetting that after all this time, and the assurances provided, that there’s no resolution in sight!

 

Anyone else have any news to report?

 

Anyone find resolution? If so, how?

 

What has corporate / your dealers been telling you?

Total BS.  If you have the Nav system, you get a card.  Note the cards are serialized to the truck, so you can't take one out of a buddy's truck and swap it to see if it works.  Call you (idiotic) dealer and explain to them that you were not given the SD card for your NAV system.

Had this exact same issue with my new 2020 AT4 (CarbonPro) diesel.  Would not work while at the dealership, but I drove 500 miles to get my truck (and it was Saturday Evening) so I made the trip home without NAV.  After I got home, I was troubleshooting (seeing if other connections inside the console worked) and after plugging a USB cable into the jack next to the SD slot, it started working.  This was the first time the SD card ever worked as it then began to "initialize" the card for the NAV system.  Figure it was a loose connector on the cable or the jackplate.  Every once in a while, I'll get a "SD card removed" error after I'm messing around inside the console, so there's likely an intermittent connection issue there.  I'll have a look at it when I get around to installing my AutoStop Eliminator.

 

Anybody seen a TSB on this?

My finally got fixed had to have take it to the dealership and they had to download a software update to the radio that The dealer could only get. It took two days for them to get the software to download even to their computer. It’s been working for me since it only messes up sometimes but it fixes itself.

what software version(s) does your system report now?

Posted

After researching the Nav upgrade for my 2020 Silverado 1500 I had my dealer order the card and they're going to install all the software and updates when it comes in.

I could have saved a few bucks by ordering it myself but this way their warranty covers it.

I've read about all the problems you all are having so I'm aware things might not all be rosy for awhile so we'll see.

 Any updates on this anyone?

 

I'm still having the difficulty with this.

 

Now on Version 807.

 

Thanks. :(

Bummer, I got the updates last week, and after a couple of days, I'm still having all the same crashing issues too.  so it would appear the update didn't fix anything.

Is the lock position on the nav SD card switch UP toward the top of the card or DN toward the contacts?  I want to try this.  Thank you.

Hi Andrew,

 

So your SD Card Removed problem has been resolved?

 

Can you please give us a break down of your whole matter and which vehicle you have.

 

My 2019 Colorado ZR2 had ZERO problems on what I believe was software version 509.

 

Did an over the air update at home to 805 and the SD Card Removed error started happening.

 

Often had to drive without NAV, which was annoying, as I specifically wanted a NAV truck.

 

Dealer did an update to 807 and the problems became worse with the system freezing, going black and restarting frequently.

 

They now want to replace the SD Card receptacle (jack/cable).

 

Can you please give a complete, detailed break down of what you did and how you got them to finally fix yours.

 

Do you have any problems at all now with your infotainment system?

 

I'm concerned with what you wrote: "it only messes up sometimes".

 

Please explain.

 

Thanks so much.

They replaced the sd card first, reader part, the usb cable, the whole radio unit, and finally they called GM and got a software patch that the dealership had to download it. It took them two day’s to get it to download to their computers. After the patch update it was fixed. It’s been okay every since. At first sometimes it would still pop up the error message but it would fix itself and work right then. Last week the only random thing was my backup camara had a blue screen on it. But it finally came back after it sat awhile and worked. Your best bet is to take it to a dealer and have them call GM and have them install the patch for the radio system.

    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
