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.

I have the same issue, started yesterday on my 2020 Denali 1500 with the 6.2. I purchased the truck new the end of April and it currently has 4900 miles on it. Crank and crank with no start. I did eve

A video of it not starting is of no use to the dealer or GM. It's not that they don't believe you but they cannot duplicate the concern. Watching it not start isn't any help diagnosing the issue.

True, but if you have a video with indisputable proof that the error is occurring, it will at least leverage them to take you more seriously and give more time to do tests needed to try and replicate

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.

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.

      Software Update

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      I am not techy at all but wondered if you have the truck running but sitting still in park as some functions gray out as soon as the truck is moving. I believe in the settings for updates you can choose for it NOT to update and I wonder by chance if maybe that was chosen before and now it won't allow you to chose to press update, I think that is back in the settings menu where it has all the items one wants on or off etc. Also I assume you have a wifi connection and checked that it has some signal strength, not that it would have anything to do with the grayed out updates choice in that case. What I am thinking out loud of here may be be of no value but thought I would suggest it, sometimes it can be the simplest thing that resolves an issue.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      The so called rare failure that some certainly liked to tout ( die hard Ford fan boys ) as per the lifter failing and wiping out the cam. Back when it started happening the blame was being pointed to the lifters and honestly I never did hear anything myself conclusively one way or the other on that. Ford themselves in I believe 2024 had a technical bulletin I will call it that came out and for some engine platforms they were reprograming the engines idle speed but also they had a software update for the oil pump which then some time later was said what that software update did as to be increasing the oil pressure at idle. It is a good question if that issue was completely solved as one Ford specialist mechanic youtuber said he saw failures after that time period. Like anything there would be the variables, what oil is being used and the OCI and how much idle time gets put on an engine. I've seen some comments to claim that the L8T isn't so happy with high idle time either but I also know that companies that require their vehicle to idle a lot on the job don't tend to get the oil changed often enough for all those hours of idle time and go off of the odometer.

      Lower trims ( WT, Custom, Silverado ( aka LT )

      By bwiese · Posted

      My 2026 Silv. 1500 WT (reg cab/short bed/4wd) has the 40/20/40 with storage in lower middle seat as well as the fold-down center bolster/armrest.   With the dual glove boxes this is about as much storage as possible in a std cab IMHO. Bill

      2026 Silv. 1500 WT reg cab: how many speakers do I have? Is amp module separate?

      By bwiese · Posted

      I have a 2026 base 1500 "WT" regular cab with basic Chevy "Infotainment 3" 7-inch screen/radio. How many speakers do I have If I want to upgrade? Is the audio amp separate from the radio/display unit]? [I listen to classical and it gets a bit raspy at slightly higher volumes. Don't need a sub etc.] Do I have two or 1 speakers in the doors? etc. Thanks Bill  San Jose

      Bench seat swap for 2021-2024 suburban

      By davester · Posted

      probably won't get a response from that user, as they haven't returned to the site since making that one post.  users don't (at least I don't, and I haven't seen any setting which would notify me via say, email) get any notification other than going to this site, and checking if they got a response on their thread...
