No way to replicate. I have the same issue and got the same response from dealer when I took truck in a month ago. My car is going back to dealership on Tuesday since it started acting up again. In the meantime I called GM directly to have it documented. Maybe you should as well. If enough people are having the same issue GM should really spend more time figuring what is the faulty part and lot number that needs to be replaced. 

Lol...Do a search on the 2005 Corvette column lock issue. Trust me, they dont put too much effort into making things easier for us as consumers if it costs them money.

Sadly my dealership and GM know the part, I just haven't asked yet. I'm not too savvy in automotive issues. All I've been told is that it is some module tied to the shifter interlock. The part went out to GM warehouses last friday and should be at my truck on Tuesday so I'll still follow up here with news and possible parts and part numbers.

Well it happened again yesterday to my truck, this time my wife was using it and called me with a vehicle full of groceries and it was parked locked.... I drove out there and after about 15 minutes and trying everything it just magically worked!!!!! This is now the 9th time it has done this in the last 2 months, brand new 2020 TB...Now of course it has been fine last evening and this morning..... Guess I get to take it to the dealership and hear how (Well it’s not doing it now BS!!!) GM needs to make the dealerships aware of this problem so the consumer doesn’t have to argue with the dealerships about how it only happens on occasions and you never know when or where.....

My dealership couldn't replicate the issue and then I got in the driver seat and got it to do it. They took it in for recalls, ran diagnostics and found the issues with a malfunctioning module tied to the shifter interlock.

 

Get them to take the vehicle in, run diagnostics and find out if its that same module as mine. Hell I'll give you the information to my dealerships service center (just PM me) because I don't know the part or part number. 

 

My dealership didn't take me seriously at first because they just see me as some 25 year old kid. I told them to handle the recalls on my 2020 AT4 and run diagnostics and software checks to see if they could find the issue. They did according to them and my truck has been at the dealership for almost a month. If your dealership doesn't take your vehicle in and you don't get them to look at the issue you might not be able to Lemon Law the vehicle which is very important to protect yourself as a consumer!

Update: I was supposed to hear something today or entirely get my truck back today. I clearly am not. This has become such a joke.

2020 Sierra AT4 Less than 100 miles. Had issue twice in one day could not shift out of park. Brought it back to dealer and they never heard of this issue. I showed them previous post (FknLeon). They could not find anything but are going to order a part. Waiting on part.

My 2020 1500 has been in the shop since Jan 27th. part has been back ordered. Now they have orderd the entire  steering column, Its backed ordered too.

Dealer has been good to work with GMC not so much. complete joke. They will not give any date as to when the parts will be available. Only 5,000 miles.

Trying to get them to just repalce the truck or write me a refund check. Should have bought another Toyota.

I have a 2020 High Country less than a week and it has happened three times.  Took it in this morning and the dealer had no clue.  Showed them this thread and specifically FknLeon’s solution above.  Since they couldn’t duplicate they offered to order the part and replace.  Interesting that they told me the part number above is a brand new number and appears to replace the previous part number.  Hopefully this is the fix.

I have a 2020 GMC Sierra Elevation with x31 and 3.0L Duramax. Had this shifter issue a few times now around 4000km. I haven’t spoken to dealer yet. I thought it was because of the cold as it happened on a -20°C day. Let the truck thaw in heated garage over the weekend and had it happen again today at 0°C after it sat idling for a few minuets.

Do you guys that have had the issue know what your build dates are?

 Just wondering if there was a bad run of parts or if this is something larger and may be a recall in the future......

The date on my Certificate of origin is 12/04/19. The sad part is the dealers are saying they no nothing about this issue.

 

I have not had the issue in a week or two. This morning Temp outside was 28 and issue returned. I have appointment in two days for dealer to install new part # 84800776

 

2/29/20 Part installed yesterday 28 degrees out this morning no issue. So far so good.

The date on my door jamb is 12/19. I drove my truck today with no issues. I can hear a click when I press the break before I put in gear. I’ll see if that click is there when I have the issue.

Mine is doing this too. 2020 Sierra Denali carbopro. Had it 2 days. Build date 12/19. 215 miles. It does it randomly. Have not been stranded yet luckily.

    • Thanks newdude!  By the time manual selection is needed, I'm probably too much of a control-freak to depend on the transmission sensing braking to activate automatic downshifting.  I would be anticipating the situation and already be manually downshifting.   This truck replaced a 2004.5 LLY diesel with the Allison 5-speed.  Putting it in T/H made noticeable differences (when the torque converter locked, upshift points, downshift behavior).  On this 2024 gasser with the 10L1000 I haven't been able to detect much, if any, difference.  Ok, I can never tell now when the torque converter locks up.  But I also don't notice differences in shifting.  For downhills, I've probably already manually downshifted by then anyway.  Since it's also more awkward (than the 2004.5) to engage/disengage I don't even bother.  Or maybe it doesn't really matter with just a 3k lb. camper in the bed?   Thanks also for the list of reasons the charging system might select various voltages.  However, what I am seeing doesn't fall into any of those categories.  It very definitely, and very consistently, rises after coasting/braking.  Maybe not immediately, but not very long after coasting/braking.  Very consistently drops voltage when no longer coasting/braking.  It might also be interacting with the camper battery charging (I might disconnect the camper and see if it changes the charging behavior).  I also need to recheck turning on headlights for when I want to force it to charge the camper.   Another JR, in June I converted the camper to LiFePO4.  Since it's not a good idea to try to charge lithiums directly using truck, I installed a Victron Orion XS DC-DC charger (which BTW is AMAZING!!).  Being cheap, I only had to buy that one item (besides the battery, of course) to do the conversion.  The camper OEM 120v battery charger (only 19 years old and works perfectly) and the truck feed the input to the DC-DC charger (not at the same time).  But I didn't want the camper charger feeding back to the truck so I kept the old separator.  I considered replacing the separator with a 30amp diode but that means more work and might add another 1/2 volt drop.  One thing that surprised me was the voltage drop over the long 10awg wire run, so I can only charge smoothly at 8 amps (because the DC-DC charger is completely configurable).  Another reason I don't want an added voltage drop with the diode.  I might also be a little lazy but all this work is being done under the sink with a small cabinet opening.    
    • apparently CA smog is (or at least was)  checking that the vehicle is using the oem and/or a ca smog approved tune, so I expect you'll fail inspection doing it.
    • yes, leaking exhaust will mess up o2 sensor readings, which in turn messes up fuel trims.
    • 286,740 Mile Services   8/6/2026   New AC Compressor. Refrigerant oil and dye, evacuate and charge system.  New exhaust system from cat back.  New Iridium plugs plus replace #3 coil Repair/rewire headlamp wiring (passenger side) and replace all forward bulbs. Polish lenses of both assemblies.  Pull rear rotors, clean and adjust parking assembly. Inspect, clean and grease front calipers. Check pads and shoes.  4 wheel power bleed of brake system. Dot 4 Reset idle speed 50 rpm higher New Serpentine belt.    Will need new pads in the rear in about 5K more miles.    Tax Title and License out the door just short of a grand.    AC clutch had bitten the dust. 1 year warranty on the pick and save replacement. Thing will make a Polar Bear cry Uncle.  He spent quite some time on the wiring. It was in the harness and he does nothing half. I got off cheap. I have considerable more light down the road. Sylvania Silver Star replacements.  Gas seal between the porcelain and shell of plug #3 was blown, cooked the coil. That was the cold miss.  Love the new exhaust. I can sneak into the neighborhood again.  Nice to have a working parking brake again. Belle Tire never got it done. That was disappointing.    This was one of her bigger bills and still way cheaper than a payment even given the oil consumption. This thing cost me under a hundred a month in repairs and normal routine costs. What is my incentive to replace it? 🤔           
    • hello I recently bought a 2012 gmc 1500 with a 5.3 and have a AFM disabler on it I'm interested in doing a cam but I'm worried if I remove the AFM system I will fail smog does anyone have info if they are able to detect that or a work around to it (not talking about hot smogging) please let me know thank you
