I have a ‘17 GMC 1500 Sierra Denali and I’ve recently started getting some error messages.  First, a couple weeks ago I got an error pop up on my info screen stating “Action Require - Open Then Close Driver Window”.  I rolled down the window and had to manually roll it back up by holding the button.  The one touch up wouldn’t work the first time.  The 2nd time I tried it worked ok.  Was ok for a few days but them came back later that week.

 

Then there was this past weekend.  Got the window error again, rolled window down like before.  Was in a long line at the dump with a load of yard trash to dump when suddenly I got a “Service Brake Assist” error come up on the dash.  Hit the dismiss and continued on my way.  However, every time the line inched forward the brakes were very touchy and grabby when coming to a slow stop. Got the truck emptied at the dump and proceeded to continue on with some errands. 

 

Once home I was checking emails & found two “Advanced Diagnostics” emails from OnStar.  The first stated that there was an “issue with the Antilock Braking System in your 2017 GMC Sierra”.  The second one was “an issue with the StabiliTrak stability control system”.  Both emails stated “Please service your vehicle within 7 days.”  

 

Just dropped off the vehicle at the dealership for them to check it out.  hopefully I’ll hear back from them in the morning.  

 

Anyone have similar issues all come up at the same time?  What was done to fix it?

Are you still on your original battery?

The open window message pops up for me when I leave the battery disconnected for a while. The other messages are similar to my experience in a suburban with a bad battery and corroded ground cable and grounding location. Replacing both, I never had the issue again. Good luck. Hope the dealer sorts it out.

actually yes, its still on its original battery.  Being the truck is only 2 1/2 years old, wouldn't have guessed that this could be a battery issue. 

 

Truck is at the dealership now and they're working on it.  When they call back I'll ask about that if they don't bring it up first.

Pretty sure they will say the battery is fine, I would replace it before the summer heat just to be safe.

 

Not sure why that is always the dealerships response, the batteries are almost $200.00 for these trucks, looks like they would want to sell more of them.

That was it...  dealership replaced the battery under warranty.

Update...  Still getting the “Action Required - Open Then Close Driver Window” message at times.  Happens about once every other week or so.  Also noticed that the volt meter on the dash does not vary as much as it did in the past.  Almost always just a little above 14 on the gauge.  Once in a while it'll drop a tiny little bit below 14, but never down in the 13.0-ish range as it did in the past.  Anyone else experience this?

Any updates? Did this get fixed?

I occasionally see service stabilitrak after starting. Once in awhile get a service safety restraint system. 
 

3/36 warranty is up March 2021. Local GMC dealer just shut its doors...

    • Thanks!  I figured as such; GM and other manufacturers have used standard parts and harnesses across trim levels and such for decades.  I pulled the blank accessory cover off of my commuter van (a 2016 or so Chevy 15-passenger) years ago and found the plug for a USB outlet.  It wasn't connected to anything, though (I tried swapping in an outlet from another van).  I was a GM Tech years ago (late-90s) and was pretty familiar with my 2006.  I might be wrong, but I view newer vehicles (pretty much anything made in the past 20 years) as being a lot more plug and play.  Meaning, more unused wires and plugs unless you have the Mack Daddy of vehicles.    
    • not all plugs will be used.  gm uses more generic harnesses that support most/all options, and if your truck doesn't have a specfiic option, the plug won't be used (commonly will have a dummy insert in the plug , or it'll be taped up, but some may just be left as is).  But it's sldo possible some p.o. has installed the wrong/cheaper parts that aren't correct for your vehicle...
    • First off, I'm not trying to just get easy advice/fixes for the issues I've noticed so far.  I'll be combing through the site via searches and such, and if past experiences are any indication, should find what I need.  For the sake of conversation, though, I figured I'd post the handful of things I've noticed in the 12 hours since buying my 2010 SLE CCSB.     Indicator lights: Airbag and TPMS.  The tire pressures aren't reading for any of the wheels, so I'm pretty certain the sensors were either removed, are damaged, or are otherwise inoperable.  I used to mount and balance tires 25 years ago but am pretty much ignorant when it comes to TPMS.  My 2006 didn't have the sensors and this might be the fourth vehicle I've owned that does.     Radio: Rear speakers aren't working.  I removed the driver's side rear door panel and checked the speaker and wiring.  I also removed the sill and b-pillar covers to check the wiring.  A few minutes of Google Fu showed that this is potentially a head unit issue.    Switches: Power mirrors don't turn left/right.  I ordered replacement driver's door switches that should arrive tomorrow.  The windows and locks work but it was only about $20 for all of them.  The driver's side rear window switch lets the window down but won't put it back up.  I think the passenger rear doesn't work at all.  In the coming days/weeks, I'll break out my multimeter to check all of that.   Unknown wiring harness: There's a box attached to the front driver's side of the engine compartment, right where the second battery shelf is located.  There are three plugs, one of which looks like it fits a standard headlight-style bulb (9007 or similar).  It doesn't look like it's plugged into anything.  I'll do some digging and if I don't see anything elsewhere on the site, post some pictures here.   Unknown plugs on brake booster: There are at least two female plugs on the brake booster that aren't being used.  I think it might be a replacement/aftermarket, so maybe those are used for a different application, as there don't seem to be any unplugged harnesses and no indicator lights are on.   Little squeaks when turning: Sounds almost like a bushing around the bed of the truck.  I'll have to pay close attention as I get more familiar with the truck.   Clunk on acceleration: possibly the infamous drivetrain clunk.  My 2006 had it and I'm just not familiar enough with this truck yet to fully grasp what it is.   Anyway, my apologies for the vague and all over the place post.  This truck is new to me, and it's been four years since I drove my 2006.  With 200k miles, I know I'll need to learn this truck quickly to avoid having any major issues, despite being confident it's got much more life to it.  My 2006 had nearly 320k on it when I parked it (nearly 300k of which I put on the truck), and it was still drivable then, though I suspected the head gasket might have blown.  I'd hoped to have that truck back by now, but it's gone forever, as I detailed in my reintroduction thread.  
    • I always drive in Sport mode. With more driving, I am finding the initial response when accelerating is much quicker now🖕 Lou
