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!

      Oil Change

      By Erfar · Posted

      have you stuck with dealer oil changes since then? I made the same switch after getting tired of crawling around under the truck, but I’ve found some dealers are way better than others about getting you in quickly. Curious if yours has been good about scheduling or if you’ve had to look elsewhere for quicker turnaround.

      Can anyone decode a VIN to determine if this truck has had emissions issues or a recall?

      By cherryred21duramax · Posted

      Thank you.   I am set on a 3.0 Duramax as my previous truck with a Ford Ecoboost had just as many, if not more, "common" issues.  Cam phasers, timing chain issues, 10-speed valve body and CDF drum, emissions issues, etc.  So I figured, why not get 2x the fuel mileage (these things got 27+mpg on every mixed city/highway test drive I put them through) and better towing capability with resale value to boot?   My minimum, shortest trip will be 50 miles 1-way and I regularly go out of state with a travel trailer.  I'm planning on using this for a marketing/event promotion business also, which would require regular towing of trailers for bands, DJs, sound and lighting gear, along with my personal camera gear for filming events.   Looked at other trucks in the $30k+ price range but the issues seem to be everywhere, plus too many with gaudy mods.  I'm literally sticking with RWD trucks because they tend to be actually used as trucks, vs. the 4x4 models I've seen with unsafe lifts, huge tires, and general mods that would affect reliability (I'm wondering if some of them were tuned, hence the aggressive throttle response and hard shifting).   So my goal is to find a stock, 3.0 with 1 or 2 owners, in good physical condition, and decently well maintained.  Can't seem to find that up here, everything in the $27-30k range has had multiple owners, smoke smell, issues, or body damage.  Or the ridiculously modified trucks with 80k miles for under $27k but lots of problems...

      OCI, not when but why?

      That’s pretty tough Grumpy. I reread the previous few posts. They all reference oil changes. Much like your last thread. In my humble opinion it keeps things interesting.

      Engine Wear and ISO 4406   1.) Cold Starts. 2.) High Particle Count. 3.) Low operating temperature viscosity and high low temperature cranking viscosity. 4.) Depleted AW, Friction and Acid packages.  5.) High engine load.    https://me.caltexlubricants.com/en_me/home/learning/from-chevron/heavy-duty-diesel-vehicles-and-equipment/The-Importance-of-Clean-Engine-Oil-and-Its-Impact-on-Equipment-and-Business-Performance.html   High particle counts have five sources. 1.) They are manufactured within the engine. Both wear debris and amalgamation of degradation products and combustion driven soot (worse in GDI). 2.) They are ingested via intake air. Ever hear the best oil filter is a good air filter? 3.) They are entrained in the fuel. 4.) This one is insidious. They are introduced in 'fresh oil'. 5.) They are introduced during the oil change.   ISO 4406 is the test that measures and quantifies the combine effects of all of the above particle related issues. You can mitigate your way into multiples of engine life by being attentive to them all.    https://www.hyprofiltration.com/blog/is-new-oil-clean   (from the link above)    [Quote] What Is the Recommended ISO 4406 Cleanliness Code for New Oil?   A good upper limit for new oil cleanliness is 16/14/11 (ISO 4406). Typical new oil usually has ISO codes of 19/17/15 or worse, which is far too dirty for sensitive components. This can be a major cause of degradation and premature failure.
