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...

    • Your tire pressure issue may just be batteries, you can reset them using tge Ing switch (I think) and the owner's  manual. ChatGTP will b e a faster, better help than Google.
    • The thinking is that starting out in a higher gear makes it easier to avoid applying excessive torque when pressing the gas pedal. In a modern 4wd truck with 4 low and a limited slip or locking rear end, I would use 4 low and try to crawl up the ramp. Sometimes if they are too slippery, you have to back up to let the boat have some bouyancy, and then accelerate briskly to get some momentum to help you pull the through the slippery parts. 
    • I have a Retrax pro that I first had on my 2020 chevy and transferred it to my current GMC.  It stays in the garage most of the time, so hard for me to judge it's long term weather resistance.  It still works perfectly, been very durable.  It doesn't see oil patch usage, but it's not a mall queen.  It keeps most things mostly dry (small leaks) and the security of it is enough to slow someone down but not keep them out for long.  I would buy one again, it works for me.     
    • Thanks to the convenience of Amazon, I was able to get a few things done to the truck today.  I installed Carquest Premium oil and air filters with five quarts of Mobil1 High Mileage 10-30 along with a quart of Pennzoil Platinum 5w-30 I already had.  The latch for the flip up center console lid was broken so I replaced it along with the power mirror switch.  I found my push retainer assortment this morning and reattached the plastic under the bumper and it was only held on with a few screws and retainers.  Then I programmed a new remote keyless entry fob so I can lock my dog in the truck when I take her out with me (I've got to keep the air going for her since it's been in the 100s).  Finally, I ordered some LED interior bulbs and replaced the reading lamps.  The front lights are working fine while one of the back lights only works intermittently and the other not at all.   While under the truck, I found the source of at least one of the noises: the sway bar links need replacing.  I ordered a set of Suspension Dudes links with Code Red bushings.  Never heard of them, but they're made in the USA and have decent reviews.  While making yet another Amazon order, I went ahead and added a set of front tow hooks.  I went with red, since that's the color of the sway bar link and bushings and it should look decent enough on a black and chrome truck.  Speaking of which, it doesn't bug me much, but the passenger side mirror has a chrome cap while the driver side doesn't, so eventually I'll make them match one way or another.  Oh, and I ordered a $20 TPMS reset tool.  No idea if it will do anything for my sensors but it was cheap and will work for the Ford Transit Connect as well.     For tradition's sake, I ordered a new oil change wrench.  I kept the Snap-On 9/16"x15mm GM wrench I bought when I was 18 in the 2006 GMC from the time I bought that truck until the truck was lost.  While I was tempted, there's no need to spend $80 for a new SO wrench, or even $50 with shipping for a used one on Ebay.  I just bought a Duratech 15mm extra-long ratcheting wrench to do the job as needed.  It works, and if I like that wrench enough, I'll buy the set.  
    • The recall is for exactly this issue - those drain holes combined with the limited environmental capability of the tailgate electronics card inside the tailgate were a problem. The “safety issue” was the potential for the tailgate to spontaneously open, but all kinds of tailgate misbehavior can occur from water contamination of that control card.    There is no real fix yet. The initial recall just disabled the tailgate. Later, when parts became available, they would replace bad parts with new parts of the same bad design. My dealer is going nuts because the few times I let them get their hands on my truck, my tailgate is off due to a slide-in camper installation. They really want to cut my tailgate wires, but I won’t give them the chance. I will let them get their dirty hands on it when a real fix (redesign) is available.  My tailgate, which works just fine with sealant plugging the drain holes, will remain safe in a dry storage crate until then.
