2020 AT4 carbon pro w/ 6.2L.  Threw a code and took it into the dealership.  Replaced the fuel control module.  Couple days later I walk out and the thing won't start.  Cranked but wouldn't turn over.  Check engine code said an issue w/ with the steering column sensor.  They ordered the part and I have been waiting for it to come in.  Oh yeah....1400 miles.  No faith in this truck, can't wait to see what goes wrong next.

Thanks for heads up, had same issue with my factory floor liners.  Couldn't get to start, just cranked with no fuel.

Guys this does not make any sense, how could the floor liner being on the gas pedal cause the engine to turn over but not start? I intentionally pulled the factory floor liner out and tossed it back in on top of the gas pedal and mine starts, there has to be more to this? Is it just a coincidence and people are being told that is what it is maybe? The scenario of the floor liner just does not make sense!

Got it back from the dealer with a replaced sensor.  Couple days later....won't start.  1600 miles!

 

This is phenomenal.  I should have never got rid of my toyota.

Thanks.  I love the thing when it works.  Truck is still in the shop.  They acknowledge an issue but can't figure out whats causing it.

UPDATE:

19 days in the shop in the first two months of ownership and I still don't have my truck back.  This is phenomenal.

For those of you getting this problem - the codes in the ecm are the Fuel Control Module and the Steering Column sensor.  Both have been replaced multiple times on mine.  I went to pick it up from the repair this AM and on the first start it did the same thing and threw a code again.  GM has no idea what is causing the problem and are just throwing sensors in.  So my car is back in the shop and now the fuel control module code came on.  Thats four repair attempts on a truck with 1600 miles and purchased in the end of January.  I smell lemons.

Same exact problem for me. 2020 Trailboss, 1800 miles. Got in after work and wouldn’t start (couldn’t hear the fuel pump). Came back the next morning and it started right up. Now left wondering where it’ll strand me next.

They are replacing the wiring from the steering column sensor to the ecm or whatever now.  This was the "fix" from GM HQ.  We will see what happens when its done..

Interesting.. I’ll update with what the dealer tells me when it goes in this week. Hopefully they come to the same conclusion.

well, get it in so they can fix it so you can be happy again.

I have a 2020 Sierra with the LM2 diesel. At 150 miles it stalled while driving and multiple crank-no starts. Sounds similar to other posts. Dealer replaced the crankshaft position sensor and has new fuse box ordered. Will see what happens next.

    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
