I have a 2019 AT4 that every time I start the truck and select Nav, I get the following message:

 

SD card message: Once initialized, this SD card can only be used for navigation in this vehicle. 

 

My my only option is to hit the confirm button on the screen and then my Nav map will load with no further issues. Does anyone know how to clear this message so it doesn’t show up every time I start my truck. Thanks in advance for the help.

Mine did that and once I set up a user it went away.

Thanks for the feedback. I did set up a user profile on my truck recently, but am still getting the message.

There is another thread on this. The problem is that the card is locked and cant be written to. The truck is trying to initialize the card and write data to it but it cant. Floppy disks used to have the same thing back in the day.

 

Pull the card out and look on the side. There is a little tab. Move it to the unlocked position, put the card back in, start the truck, and then it will happen more time, press confirm, and you shouldn't see it again.

 

Same thing happened with my truck.

After updating to 807 and replacing the SD Card and card receptacle, GM now wants to replace the radio control module, which requires two visits, one where they need to get the number off the current unit and another to replace same.

 

I want them to go to back to 509, the last known working version which had no problem at all.

 

Has anyone been successful in getting a dealer to go back to an earlier software version?

 

Any other updates anyone? Please provide the latest status.

 

Thank you.

I am having this same issue.  My dealer too wants to replace the radio module.  I am not thrilled about them tearing apart the dashboard in my 9 day old 1500 Denali.  Has anyone had any luck in getting this issue resolved?  Currently, the SD card has been replaced as well as the SD card reader.  Anyone able to help?

Similar issue.  SD card removed error randomly occurring riding down the road.  Not all the time.  However, I could make it happen error by disconnecting the USB cable from the truck side outlet.  At which point the USB ports (dash and console) were dead (no power; no Apple Carplay) until some time later usually sitting overnight.  Dealership replaced SD card today....didnt fix it.  So I demonstrated the issue to the tech, so they took it back again.  After an hour of waiting this morning they are replacing the radio module (I think).  I was told the dash had already been taken apart, so they gave me a loaner.  New parts to arrive on Monday, so we'll see if its fixed then.

 

Hoping this fixes the issue, but I am going to be meticulous in making sure none of the trim is scratched or loose.  Only had the truck for a month...

I just got my 2021 AT4 and was getting this same message and unlocking the SD card did the trick.  My question is why was it locked to begin with, is this something the dealer did inadvertently or did it come from the assembly line this way.  Anyway, my problem is fixed thanks for the post.

I am having the same issue. I have a 2021 AT4 with 600 miles on it. The dealership told me that the SD card needed to be replaced. So they are ordering me one in. At the same time I had a check engine light come on and on star told me it was throwing a P00C7 code. I had a 2019 AT4 and had nothing but trouble with it. The dealership told me that it was uncommon to have this many problems with this truck, that’s why I traded for a new one. Now I’m having problems with the new one already. I’m starting to loose confidence in GM.

Where is the SD card located? Please and thank you!

      OCI, not when but why?

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      That's interesting, I assume that would add to the cost of the oil but also I was forgetting to bring up the issue of the low tension rings allowing more oil past which in turn forces the cats to have more oil additives pass through them that wouldn't otherwise so they are creating that problem and of course its all in the name of fuel economy. Mind you the other issue would be the lack of additives that fight the formation of carbon within the piston ring grooves which turn the engine into an oil burner and with in this GM forums case is your average off the shelf Dexos licensed oil, meanwhile the other off the shelf oil being Valvoline's R&P isn't licensed and the only one that is which is that certain Mobil oil that came out recently ( its not even being marketed in Canada ) and only a fraction of vehicle owners are going to be using it out of all the other oils on the shelf or the quickie lube bay that meet the Dexos spec by way of actual licensing.    Also I suspect that its an easy excuse to pool the non turbo DI engines in with the turbo DI engines and design the oil to not have LSPI issues in the most demanding engines and short change the naturally aspirated DI by not offering a higher concentration of additive package they could handle and still not be at risk of LSPI.    I wonder if Amsoil flipped the switch just lately and did whatever packaging designation at the same time as I wonder what oil formulation I would have bought in May, of course I don't know when it was packaged at the factory vs how long it was in storage at the Edmonton warehouse. I know its been said at least in the past that the big players switch over to a reformulated oil but the packaging has not changed until they make that move as well so there is that cross over time where its a new formulation in a predated formula marked package.

      Hmm. A real reason to not just use the odometer to determine OCI?

      Sad thing is that this doesn't have to be the case. LSPI can be solved without a reduction in TBN. Swap Ca for Mg.  Cats are not a issue if the OEM can get a ring and valve guide seal even at SN levels of SAPS. Dizzy is purring like a kitten with a bowl of warm milk. 200K of Full SAPS oil and zero detonation issues and nice a clean inside and out. This shouldn't be an issue. It isn't 1920.    Tell ya what AMSOIL SS is excellent at, internal cleanliness. The new formula is even a step up from their already outstanding cleanliness levels. Can't say the OEM offering is quite that clean. There marketing suggest the SS is cleaner.     That is the only defense with at shelf oil. Nothing wrong with them if you ignore the marketing and OEM 'recommended' OCI and use a thimble full of common sense. 😉 You go sir.

      Roll up bed cover experiences

      By StingerZ16 · Posted

      I started with a folding cover by BAK PAC on my 2500. It went bad after close to 5 years. Bent and vinyl coming loose. Contacted BAK and they gave me a very good discount on a Revolver. Had it a number of years. Mostly outdoor storage. Some garage storage. Vinyl started to come loose. Still under warranty so they replaced to cover. Sold the 2500, bought the 1500 and got another revolver for it. Had it a couple years now and no issues. I store it indoors. Got a bit of discount when buying it as well. If you are seeing problems, contact BAK or real truck and let them know. Customer service was pretty good. But I think they changed their warranty.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I agree, there is no one answer fits all as every rig is different, one may be pulling some little aluminum fishing boat while another is towing a monstrosity that weighs a lot and hopefully the owner if the rig has some prior experience to know what drive mode they should choose.    It also struck me and this is from watching a few of those boat ramp escapades videos in the past, Ford being one of the vehicles that has the auto front axle hubs and sure enough its found out that one hub has crapped out and won't engage and may not have manual hubs to even select on both sides so they are on the boat ramp stuck with no four wheel drive and spinning .... they flat out need a tow to get up the ramp and deal with the vehicles new found issues. That can happen to all brands of pickup, finding out either four wheel drive or 4 low isn't working right at the time its needed it to work as some electronic crap has failed.
