P0106 and P0300 with 197 miles on the odometer.  Guess we'll find out what happened Monday.

Was it able to crank and start at all?  I think I remember some on here with some crazy error codes like that due to extremely low or discharged battery.

 

I've got a 2020 6.2 Sierra as well.  These trucks got some crazy issues.

It went from idling normally while I unloaded the bed at the dump to suddenly stumbling and ultimately stalling.  If I held the accelerator down and cranked I could get it to start.  As long as I kept my foot down and the rpms around 2k it would run but it was shaking bad and that's when the check engine light started flashing.  Let my foot off... Stall.   

 

Had my daughter bring some isoheet just in case it was water in the fuel.  Shook the truck to mix then restarted with same results.

 

After the tow same thing.

Got a call from the dealership.  Broken valve spring.  Awaiting words.

It scares me how many engine and parking brake issues these 2019 and 2020 trucks have.

 

Makes me wonder what the actual percentage of problems compared to total number of trucks produced....Or is it just the fact that we see them more frequently because we come to these forums.

That last part is probably on point.

Sounds like your dealership did right by you.  I used to live in Northern VA and there were a couple of good ones down there.

 

I have to say.  Suttle Motors is not a bad place to do business.

What is your build date?  Take a look at this post...

 

I have a Sierra 6.2 Build date of 8/20 already with a leaking rear window issue that hasn't been resolved yet...

Took delivery of my at4 last week, 316 miles in and the exact same issue... Broken valve spring.  They towed it in yesterday, fixed it and returned it today.  How did you go about getting them to extend the warranty, etc?

I didn't state warranty piece accurately.  It was a component coverage letter.

Absolutely correct, they started having crazy issues going full electrical and today still carry that gene but with even more crap in them.

    • You must have that upgraded gvw package which is only available or at least was in 2025 with the diesel engine for the 3/4 ton and that gave the truck physically the larger 12.0 ring gear rear diff and the 3500 rear spring pack. There is a difference in what the diff housing looks like externally as one tell tale and also your truck should have the upper overload spring pack and the frame pads that the pack goes up against.    The pressure the tpms system kicks the alarm in on a stock setting truck, that is a good question and was just from what I recall but I doubt I made any notes on it as I knew for the rear that it was not at all what I was after regardless either. Being that you have a diesel and if running on stock tires the minimum pressure on an empty truck seems to be around 50 psi from hearing of those that have weighted the front axle but the rear axle is very similar in weight to a gas truck and again a near empty truck on the rear could go down to 35 pounds at minimum. However the weigh scale is the proper way to know for sure as a guide.    As to changing the readings on the dash from metric to the US measuring system, oh yes that is done easily but what I was attempting to explain was that I can't pick and choose items I want to have in US and those I still want in the metric system at the same time as its either all or none. For example lets say you drove into Canada and switched your dash over to metric so your speedometer read in km an hour, well then your reading kilopascals on your tpms readout and your wife looks over and says what the hell is that saying in the tpms screen and you say "darned if I know, I think its Chinese" !
    • This is partly why I decided to have switched over to Amsoil SS as a way of hopefully preventing the buildup of the sludge/carbon on the pistons and clogging of the oil control rings and the carbon that would cause the compression rings to stick in their grooves as well as stay cleaner up top of the heads in the valve train in the first place, an oil that has tested better by third party testing over typical shelf oil and also doing my best to run relatively short OCI. However in saying that I don't think there is any way to easily prove the oil I was using prior allowed for a buildup at the OCI I was doing, nor in the other direction to make claims the Amsoil is keeping everything clean either. There really isn't a window into the engine is there to know anything for certain even if oil samples were taken for example that showed still healthy oil being dropped out of the oil pan other than engine tear downs that extensive and expensive testing of oils does to actually visually see what is really going on inside the engine. I wish there was some easy method of seeing what is going on but I don't happen to be aware of that if there is.  
    • My truck is a ¾ ton but my placard also says 80 for the rear tires, I think I might have the upgraded suspension to the 3500 series maybe.   I put my air down to 60 and the light was still on, and there was no way I was putting over 60 psi in the rear empty and not towing because I knew the actual number Toyo gave me and I didn't wanna ruin the center of my tires!   And you actually can change it in the settings from metric or is and it will show kph or mph then when you go into your tire settings it will be either psi or kpa, but it would be nice to just change it directly on the tire psi page
