Same issue.  2020 GMC 3500 Denali.  Went to “update software” but button is greyed out, says not a good time, try later.  Anybody found a fix?  Does updating resolve this?

 

Follow-up: a few days later apparently a “good time” finally arrived, my update button came back to life, software updated, back to normal radio operation.

You might want to post this in your generation section.

I just got a new 2025 silverado and about 20% of the time the radio won't shut off after you turn the truck off and open the door. There is no way to get the radio to turn off other than maybe disconnecting the battery. The on/off button won't work. Opening all the doors and shutting them doesn't work. All I can do is lock the doors and go in the house. Eventually it quits playing. I'm not very happy about this

Try hard rebooting the radio.  If you have the big 13 inch screen, vehicle on or running, press and hold the phone end call button that's on the right side of the steering wheel for 15 seconds.

I bought 2024 GMC Sierra Elevation. I bought used just a month ago. Radio has always turned off when I open the door. Now it stays on. I have to power down the radio. It did show it had an update. I pushed the update but it is still staying on. What is the fix?

I’m having the same problem as mentioned above with my 2024 GMC Sierra.I  looked for updates nothing new and previous was March 2. I tried rebooting using button on steering wheel same thing happened  with radio so I tried a second reboot and right after second reboot I got an update now so I tapped to do update now. After update radio goes off when I turn off Sierra and open door . I went back to see what showed in the previous update area and only showed the March 2 update. I was going to post new  update tile / number. I will check again tomorrow or the next day and if there’s a new tile or number I will update my port with new info.

 

This just started happening in the last few days. I have had the Sierra for about a year  with know problems. 

Update 6-1-25 I took my truck for quick ride this morning and when I parked in driveway I got a message for new update so I did update . When I restarted after update and then turned off radio went off when I opened driver door.  So not sure if it was the two reboots I did yesterday or the new update done today but so far radio turns off properly .

      OCI, not when but why?

      But Grumpy I did show several subdivisions that had homes starting in the 170K range. If you bought a Townhouse or Condo you could go cheaper. Same with a car 3000 dollars in the 70s translates to around 20K today. There are several models at that price. You actually get more for the money. In the 70s I drove a 3000$ car bought a 28K home and made 4.50 per hour. Thank goodness for overtime. Today I could buy a 170K house drive a 20K car and make 25 dollars an hour operating the same machine today. The difference the house, car, machine would be better and have AC. And I wouldn’t be taxed on overtime. And statistically your wife works too. Easing the burden. I thought we agreed to disagree. I brought receipts earlier, showing examples. I think you’re more stubborn than me. I was done with this debate.

      Another 6.2L engine failure!

      By MASONV88888888 · Posted

      My 2025 Silverado 1500 had to receive a brand-new engine (long block) under warranty last month at only around 16,500 miles. Before the replacement, the truck repeatedly displayed "Engine Oil Level Low" warnings, even though the Oil Life Monitor still showed around 50% remaining after about 6,000 miles since my last oil change. After seeing the warning several times, I checked the dipstick with the engine cold, and the oil level was completely normal. The next day, the message escalated to "Add Engine Oil." At first, I assumed it was just a faulty oil level sensor, so I brought the truck to the dealership. After inspecting the engine, they found internal cylinder wall scoring and ultimately replaced the entire long block under warranty. Before this happened, I was planning to install a 4-inch lift and suspension upgrade on my truck. After needing a new engine at just 16,500 miles, I honestly don't see the point anymore. I also contacted GM to ask whether my vehicle qualified for a buyback, but I was informed that it does not at this time. Anyway, this experience has left me with serious concerns about the long-term reliability of this engine. I sincerely hope NHTSA expands the current investigation or recall to include 2025 model and performs a thorough inspection of affected vehicles. My biggest concern is that these engines may fail shortly after the powertrain warranty expires. If GM truly stands behind this engine, then at the very least, please consider extending the powertrain warranty to 10 years for affected owners. That would go a long way toward restoring customer confidence.

      Without exception but then I'm the odd duck, right? I know what goes into that test, how it is calculated and thus how to beat it. But EPA values are often not beaten by the general public and the government has in past years adjusted the means and methods to come to those values to more closely approximate "Joe Average".    The only real trick to beating that EPA average is don't drive like "Joe Average".    It's the same method you used to profit from "Economic Migration" and in doing so beat the 'stats'. But you, like me, are not "Joe Average".     The thing you don't seem to grasp is this "Purchasing Power Index" isn't forward looking. It doesn't predict what it going to be but looks backward and states what it was. They are not telling us what the THINK, they are telling us what they MEASURED. Example:    Wife says "I'm going to lose 40 pounds by Christmas". May she does, maybe she doesn't but the doctors office who weighed her when she made that statement and again at Christmas only REPORTS what the RESULT was. You and I can banter about what was possible and what aunt Tilly did till the cows come home but the result is the result. Arguing otherwise is.....irrational. That's all I'm saying. This isn't about:      What you are calling a 'Statistic' is a RESULT not a CALCUATION and as a result the RULE. Like gravity as a rule, it can not be broken.
