2 New recalls

I have a service appointment tomorrow to address these two items plus the seat belt pretensioner. Based on the responses here though, I’m kinda leaning towards canceling the appointment and waiting a little longer.

Same boat, have an appointment tomorrow for them, now I’m hesitant to go

What gets me is I had the recalls done but my Chevy app still shows that they need attention.  It amazes me that with today's systems that they can't talk to each other.  Once it is cleared in the system it should update all platforms.

Had all three recalls and my rear window addressed this week.  Picked up the truck today and the lane keep / forward collision system has stopped working.  Now another visit needed..... going to see if I can request to have the front camera recalibrated.

Don’t get the brake recall/flash. Mine was done yesterday...truck worked great before they did it. As soon as I get home on the next start up all the brake warnings and messages pop-up and lost the brake assist. Shut it off and restarted after 10mins and the brakes are working but CEL stayed on. Took it back to the dealer this morning....after three hours they called GM..software issue and no fix available right now.

@TLDLTD I had the same issue. Truck serviced on a Friday morning for the recall & come Monday morning my dashboard lit up. No prior issues. I ended up driving for another two days with the check engine light on. 

 

I just picked up my truck from service today & they ended up replacing the entire assembly associated with the braking system. Turns out the ZF IBC assembly has multiple modules that control everything braking related: ABS, brake wear, stability/ traction control, etc. The specific codes on my truck indicated an issue with a rear wheel brake wear sensor issue. They checked all of the wiring & the issue came back to a module on the assembly. They had issues troubleshooting it & ended up replacing the entire assembly.

 

This explains why I was able to continue driving the truck for hundreds of miles, even after the initial fault. If any one of the individual systems that this assembly control faults, then they have to replace the entire assembly. The engineers at GM have not given the dealerships a way to service the individual modules on the assembly yet. 

 

The truck went in on Tuesday afternoon, they overnighted the part, and performed the work this morning. The assembly is accessed through the driver side wheel well. 

 

Brake by wire may be unavoidable for us as consumers. But, I would not own one of these trucks without a warranty, as parts and labor would easily make this a $1500-$2000 repair. That said, I'm happy to have my truck back.

that's one of the recalls I had done this week.  Picked up today, lane keep and forward collision braking system not working.  Scheduled to go back Monday for a camera calibration.  hopefully that does it

Did you end up going?  All well?

No I decided to wait since my truck is driving fine and others have said the recall caused software issues for them.

Crazy that the recall is causing the problems. Although my dealer said the recall is unrelated - time for a new dealer.

It definitely looks like the Recall which reprograms the Front Windshield Camera causes some vehicles to disable the Front Camera which will affect the Intellibeam Op, Lane Change and Departure Ops and Forward Collision Alert Op. The Camera must be placed in Re Learn by the GM Tech to get these Safety Features enabled. If the Tech digs deep enough, they will find the Codes that will lead them to perform the ReLearn Process.

I’ve got an appointment on 12/26, but after reading everything here, I think I’m going to cancel and address it again in January.

They should be able to complete the recalls. I am having (4) done today. 2 of which are the alternator cable and brake software. Not sure why they are saying the 27th [emoji2373]

    • Enjoy the new truck, it’s a beauty. I’m glad you’re keeping the OBS, I love those old trucks. 
    • With large equipment or deep mud it is more of a use the higher gear to avoid spinning tires, getting stuck because of spinning tires and doing damage to your machine. The idea is if you run out of torque before you spin tires you can still downshift for more torque. If you are just spinning your tires in the lowest available gear you are stuck and things break.   Automatic transmissions, traction control and electronic transfer cases change the calculation a little as you the driver have less control over each piece. 
    • are there any codes? with lots of rust, perhaps disconnect/clean both sides of the connection/examine cable ends (the wires) for corrosion going into the sheath & replace if necessary/reconnect ALL the power AND ground cables between the battery, engine, frame, cab, fuse box and starter charm.li (website) has a no-start diagnostic procedure you can work through to get it working.
    • Its no wonder you've gravitated to the oil types and brands you have in later years after trying certain brands and one being a specialty oil or at least very hard to come by up here and the other would have been a commonly found oil of the era and the vastly different outcomes as a result to using the vehicles in question the same distance for an OCI . It shows what marketing hype can do without actually having the product to back up the claims and that is no different now with the insane claims that are written on the side of a bottle of oil from some of the off the shelf oils.    What has surprised me and I was already finding this out before I bought my truck with the GDI engine, that this newer fancy technology that seemingly would suggest better fuel economy/emissions with this high pressure spray of fuel is not in reality kind at all to the engine or at least the oils life. Yet they insist on claiming long OCI with this technology just like they did with the port or similar type fuel injection systems when in reality its a step back in oil life to have a GDI system.    I think the mistake your making Grumpy is that your not sending your samples to Blackstone and getting the feel good glowing report that you can run it another 1000 or more miles and then send another sample where they say run it yet another 1000 miles and on and on it goes until your sending in something that looks a lot like road tar and then they may suggest you change your oil within the next 1000 miles 😆
    • I am guessing that engines of that design back then had a better ability to be abused and survive longer than a new design engine with the long timing chain and the overhead cams and phasers etc. But I would never guess that an engine could go that far and not fail spectacularly or at least die a slow death.
