I have 2020 Sierra 1500 has anyone checked to see if miles are accurate. I seem to be flying through miles on my truck. I had 2016 HD prior to this and it seemed to take forever to put 1000 miles on. I do same driving with both trucks. Just think if gm tampers with miles a little bit, your warranty would only be 30000 in stead of 36000. You would put higher miles on your truck and it would be worth less.

I thought the exact thing about my 2020.  Thought maybe I was crazy. I rarely drive mine but every time I look at the odometer I can't believe that I've racked up that many miles. I'd be willing to bet it's off. I thought maybe GM did it on purpose to hose us come trade in time,lol!  I traded a 2016 3/4 ton in on this AT4 and the miles are racking up twice as fast though I drive it half as much.

Should be able to figure it out fairly easily with Waze.

Come on people do you really think GM or any other company would intently do this when it could be very easily caught and then face huge fines.

I was waiting for that guy to show up nothing to see here go back to sleep keep getting screwed. Did Volkswagen care with diesel engines or how about airbags or ignition key and list goes on.

I just don't understand some people on here and I can't believe  they even buy a GM product when all they do is get on here and complain about everything and anything and knock all dealers and service techs as being incompetent. Sure some have legitimate concerns, most don't. I've owned GM all my life and sure I have had some problems although very few. Go get another brand if you think GM is screwing you, you'll find that they have their problems also.

I know for a fact mine is 100% spot on dead accurate. I track mileage and assign it to a Job site. I do this for profit and loss statements so i know where i stand on every Project down to the penny. I am quite sure GM or any other automaker  (well maybe not VW) Know better then to try and pull something like this.  

I just wish my 3500 HD I swear gm is stealing my gas as i drive down the road. it might get  11 mpg .

I love my GMC and wouldn't get anything else. All brands have there problems. I was just wondering if any one else noticed there miles going up fast and there where other people who thought that. I will check my truck out like the other posts stated. Thanks all for input ?

Umm, if anyone is genuinely concerned about this issue, they ought to verify the milage (which is really, really easy to do) and if it is off take it in and make them fix it.   Speculating about and posting about baseless conspiracy theories is just food for trolls.

    • I'm tangentially aware of what Harley used to be, back in my riding days, although I was into Italian sport bikes. Ducati seems to have gone the other way; still very expensive, but they've made a large subset of their bikes a lot more reliable and accessible, and they've diversified their lineup to include other riding sports too. IMO, a good example of where greed and growth might have also been beneficial to the consumer.   Although GM is charging a relative premium for its most popular pickups, I find that there are some excellent value propositions in its lineup as well.   The Colorado still strikes me as the most attractive midsize on the market, and also the most reasonably priced given capability and features. There's a part of me that wishes I would have bought one instead of my Silverado.   The Equinox ...I must be getting old. The ICE equinox is a great design IMO. Probably because it reminds me visually of an actual SUV aka an S Blazer. Underneath it's nothing even remotely close, but it LOOKS good. It's got all the modern features plus some at a very reasonable price. If I had to run out and buy myself a daily commuter to do everything except tow, an Equinox would be on my list.   It does bug me that mid-tier 1500's reach into the 50-60k range, and Tahoes and Burbs are even more expensive. Less than 10 years ago, dealers were sitting on rows of Tahoe LS and LT's for low 40's. You could even still find Tahoes with a front bench, still!
    • Big oil is raking in billions from the Iran war. Can it avoid Trump’s fury?   Remember I said Big Oil is 'Vertically Integrated"?   Even as they no longer own the majority of the "Pump" they still own the "Well". Crude price upward pressure does not translate into that same pressure on production. Pumping cost remain unaffected and the gap is pure profit. Even after subtraction of a minor, comparatively, lower amount from supposed, but not always, realized refining volume. Consumers hate war, Big Oil, not so much.
    • We live in a world where the average person expects more. People say wages and our needs are farther apart. My first new home had 3 bedrooms and one bedroom. My first car and truck had what would be considered a stripped or work vehicle. In my neighborhood back then there were more homes like that and cars too. Middle managers and second home buyers worked their way up to the fancy houses and cars. Car loans were 3 years. GM had different models of cars for different income levels. The cars were pretty much the same size if you wanted a big vehicle. The nameplate designated the opulence. Chevy, Pontiac, Buick, Oldsmobile and Cadillac.  To be fair some of the cost is government mandated. We can’t blame them for giving us what people will pay for. Careful advertising steering people towards more profitable SUVs and trucks. As I learned recently a minivan is a cheaper more efficient form of transportation. Certainly easier to live with. Somebody realized the profit margin wasn’t as big and gave it a soccer mom label. So it lost its coolness. They’re making it the masses are buying it. You hit your hand with a hammer you can’t blame the hammer.
    • Hi All, I’m In need of advice regarding a scan result on my 2023 Silverado HD.  The Sensor Supply voltage relay states ON But…. the following 3 tests show Malfunction. Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit HIGH voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit LOW voltage Test status- Malfunction Sensor supply voltage relay control circuit OPEN test status - Malfunction. No DTC codes are stored. No DIC Lights. Remote Key Fob has been giving a few issues, namely Vehicle will not respond to an Open/Lock command from the key fob. New batteries installed to FOB made no difference, plus on one occasion recently the vehicle unlocked using the Fob, the vehicle started normally via the push button, then a random warning came up on the DIC stating the Remote Key was not found, all this while the key was located next to the central cup holders. Does anyone have any input or advice regarding this scenario? TIA
