Bought my 20 Trailboss LT on February 15th. Last Tuesday leaving for work, my truck wouldn't come out of park. Had it towed to the local chevy dealer last wednesday and they found nothing. Happened Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Comes out of park after about 20 mins. After the first initial start. Dropped the truck off where I bought it on Sunday. They called me mo day afternoon and said they fixed it. Happened again Tuesday, so I brought it back and they have no clue whats going on. Said they are working with engineers to figure it out with no clue when ill have my truck back. Any help would be helpful on what my next step should be?

Very complicated vehicles these days.

I've worked with people in my field that were dumber than a post.

Good techs and bad techs same as all other fields.

AMEN brother. I cherish the shop I use and the staff and let them know I do regularly. An honest shop with great people is a wonderful thing. That said even good techs get stumped sometimes. The top one or two are in school almost as much as they are at work learning the new stuff dumped on them each year.

When I had my first car I could take every nut and bolt apart and back together again with the tools in a standard one tray 'lug around' box.

And what makes you think they have been trained on how to fix THIS problem?  Hell it sounds like GM doesn't have a solution yet.  Welcome to the life of driving a vehicle controlled by 10 computers.

You mean, welcome to the life of driving a GM vehicle.  
Still waiting for you to specify that long list of Toyota issues.

Go find out for yourself, son.  Here's some help.

I'm on that forum and, as I mentioned above, pretty much the only troubleshooting threads boil down to: 

 

1. I swapped in LEDs and messed up my electrical system when I blew a fuse

2. I put in a cheap lift and messed up my suspension

3. I have a question about the normal operation of the truck that's been answered 147 times previously

      Because that is IDIOTIC, much like this question. They've already been forced to do it by past administrations - why would you roll that back when it's a GOOD thing?  WHO IS ARGUING FOR LOWER MILEAGE???? 😂  NOBODY IS!!   I'm certainly not! What I want is RELIABLE vehicles again that are worth the price paid!    I don't get your logic here ...   In 2003 I paid $2,200 for our '86 Grand Marquis. It's STILL running and I've never been inside the engine, aside for the timing cover since it was leaking, so I threw a new timing set in since that makes sense. Transmission is ORIGINAL. Electric pump in the gas tank is ORIGINAL. Rear end is ORIGINAL. I'd have to hit my head REAL hard to want to pay $60k or more for a car that still can't come close to the comfort, seating and storage space, or reliability of this one. Nothing is even in the ball park! Hundreds of thousands of brands and models have been built and sent to the crusher while this one keeps on going!   https://postimg.cc/Z9XRrCSg   I've got a whole fleet of cars, motorcycles, and a truck close to this age for summer and winter. No one could pay me enough to buy anything built this century. I have zero use for any it.

      Since I'm the one who has to fix them when they break, I'll take vehicles over 30 years old all day, EVERY day, over ANY modern crap. Have you attempted any repairs on anything built after 2006? It's a friggin nightmare, and gets worse the newer the model year.    If I had the will or desire, I can make any car of any age outside of a Model T (I don't have THAT much will ...) just as powerful, comfortable, and have all the tech the new stuff does, and get pretty close in mileage, too. I prefer SIMPLICITY. The less the vehicle has, the less to fix WHEN it breaks, not IF.   I'm glad you snot-nosed punks don't like them. More for us, plus that keeps the prices from climbing more than they already have.👍

      Bringing this thread back on topic. I just noticed the incredible lack of bright chrome across the entire new lineup. Even the Denali has tinted the brightwork in the grille and has none elsewhere. None of them have chrome bumpers. As far as I can tell there aren't even chrome mirror caps. I'm curious if this also happens out back? Are there no chrome rear bumpers either? This is quite the departure for GMC.
