Update on my 2020 trailboss I bought 5 months ago.  Failed to start right after I bought it and they replaced the fuel pump module.  It now happened again 5 months later.  The first time 275 miles on it and now 13000 on it.

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

I am so glad I found this thread and so disappointed that so many people are having the same issue. I have a 2020 Silverado LT Z71. The third day after purchasing the truck it wouldn’t start, all the same symptoms as everyone else. I was told it was the fuel control module. The dealer picked my truck up, replaced it and it drove fine for about 3 months. Then it wouldn’t start again. Dealer had it for a week and couldn’t find the issue. I was able to take videos that showed low voltage and check engine lights although they weren’t on at the dealer. They gave me the truck back and about a week later it didn’t start again. They had my truck for about 2 weeks and finally said they received the ecm bulletin. They replaced it and today after getting gas the truck took a while to start, but did not crank like the usual problems. So I began looking around and found this forum. I am expecting another issue soon. I have filed cases each time with GM since the first problem and am currently dealing with them now, they have no answers and so far I do not have high hopes. I will be following this thread to see what others report back with.

They are replacing the ECM in mine now. 

Interesting.....

 

I read several pages here and it seems mine was the same as the OP's.  I had JUST washed the truck that day and the GM floor mat was nudging the gas pedal just enough to cause a crank/no start condition

Seeing a pattern here.  Same issue with my 2020 6.2l wit 4,700 miles.  After sitting for 1/2 hour it finally started and I drove it straight to the dealer.  (then walked 5 miles home; vallet service cancelled because of Covid)  Check engine light came on.  Will report the outcome.

 

Interesting note after reading these posts.  The fuel pump always activated when I opened the drivers door in the morning.  It didn't do that this time.  Always wondered what was going on.  Figured it pressurized the fuel.

My dealer is saying the problem may be the aftermarket dealer installed alarm.....Karr security system. 

They removed the alarm, 3 stops later it did it again... it will be back in on Monday.

November 2020, GM posted a service bulletin for this; PIP 57335F.  The fix is to replace the ECM (Electronic Control Module), so that is what they are going to do.  Will let you all know how effective it is.

Has anyone had the ECM replaced? Did it solve the problem?

In June they replaced my ECM and fuel sender when this was an emerging issue. It worked for me. No issues so far!

I don’t think the 3.0 is listed on that bulletin, but I’ll push for it. Thanks for the info!

Happen to have any more specific info on this service bulletin?

Welcome to more goodies in vehicles = more problems.  Sorry you have to deal with it, but yes, all these newer modern vehicles are not meant to be occasional grocery getters and no other use.  I'd recommend having a battery tender installed.  Plug it in at home, unplug when you need it 5 days later, and so on.  Also invest in a good jump pack. 
I have a Corvette. It sits all winter and is only a toy for occasional use. Yes it sits long enough to need a battery tender. But if it sits a week or 2 it doesn't need it. It has all the same goodies on it. It always starts. Not being a daily driver on a modern loaded vehicle is not the problem.

Sure it is... Don't believe me?  GO visit the other manufacturer forums.  Having the same issues.  Too many goodies and computers being run even when the vehicle is off.

Sitting and draining the battery is a different issue.  This is identified as “cranks but doesn’t start” and that’s the title of the bulletin.  Plenty of power in the battery but it is as if it isn’t getting fuel.  In regard to the occasionally driven cars, even the factory alarm and those other goodies will drain the battery in time.

      AUX switch install

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      Update for anyone following:    Installed everything as shown in diagram. Opted for 8 AWG from Battery Positive to a 50A resettable inline breaker. 8 AWG is tied into to 2x 12 AWG wires feeding a 6 way fuse bus in parallel (manufacturer’s design of what I purchased).    4 of the 6 fuses available for circuits are tied to terminal 30 of each relay. I tied a jumper from one of my spare circuits off the bus to terminal 86 of each relay. The trigger, terminal 85, was pulled from my interior by way of T-Taps from the X61A-X5 pins 10, 11, 17 and 23. This was the hardest part of the job. Even with the X61A unbolted and the X5 removed - there was VERY little wiggle room.  I added back up lights that I want to come on with my cargo lamp - but when I would check continuity between S48A-X1 pin 18 to its respective landing point on the X61A-X5 it triggers the factory relay… Instead I opted for a add-a-fuse on the passenger interior fuse panel (fuse location 10 - cargo lamp) and ran it through the boot on the driver side to my load. Did this to avoid introducing any electrical gremlins.   Note: Please check for continuity between the S48A-X1 and the X61A-X5. In my case wire colours were not the same as other’s who have posted. To do a continuity check you need a Multimeter. Completely disassemble the S48A-X1 and remove the brown face plate off the X61A-X5 by way of a flat head screwdriver - this was the only way I could get any results.   The outputs, terminal 87 of the relays, were fed into a junction box and landed at Individual studs and were labelled Aux 1-4.    At this point, all you need to do is run wire to your loads and bring them to ground. I created a negative bus in the engine bay, all my negatives land here.    For anyone having issues with all of your new aux switch lights coming on with the press of one - I noticed this only to be an issue when the battery wasn’t hooked up to my relays? No idea why, but it was quickly corrected by having my system buttoned up and functional.

Thanks GM lol

      Don't need the air tube but that's how everyone sells them. Most places won't remove that one piece and sell it alone. No money to be made. Hoping someone swapped theirs out for a CAI and no longer wants it. Not asking anyone to give it away. Offering to buy it but I don't need the tube. It's held on by a hex head screw and nut. Been all over eBay.
