My rear window continues to leak after the dealer said they fixed it. I don't believe they actually touched it, there is 0 evidence of them doing anything back there (unless the technician was 100% perfectly meticulous, doubt it, most techs are hacks).

anyway, is there a new or updated TSB to address the leaky window?

thanks

My truck is at the GMC dealership now getting the rear window resealed, both corners were leaking. They said there was a new TSB on it. That was on 12/09/2021.

My rear window was leaking when it had about 20,000 miles.  The dealership followed the TSB and sealed it. It is about a year later and I just noticed today that it is leaking again. I haven't seen another TSB and it appears that they removed the old one. I'm afraid to bring mine back because they damaged my headliner last time and had to remove and replace my front windshield to get a new headliner in. At least they had loaners at that time.

I just noticed my rear window leaking the other day I thought I was seeing things. This is the second GMC that has done this.  Good thing it stays in the garage.  Most of these guys are so young doing the repairs, they lack attention to detail but that will come with age!

Mine is in as I type this for the second time and getting a new rear window installed per the TSB. The dealer service advisor told me that the new glass has a new part number and appears different from the old window; something about the curve at the top of the window? The TSB states: "If the vehicle underwent this bulletin repair, was released to the customer and later returned for the same concern, replace the rear sliding window. Refer to Rear Sliding Window Replacement in SI, AND ensure that during application of the urethane to the new window, that the urethane covers the complete length of the top encapsulation of the window." https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2020/MC-10173388-9999.pdf

They also did a DEF tank inspection and ECM update for the DEF heater under a recall. He said I was lucky, they have two trucks that have been waiting for a new DEF tank for ~6 weeks. I don't have the recall information yet as the truck is still at the dealer.

I hope this is the final fix for the window!

      AUX switch install

      By SwitchBladeSierra · Posted

      Update for anyone following:    Installed everything as shown in diagram. Opted for 8 AWG from Battery Positive to a 50A resettable inline breaker. 8 AWG is tied into to 2x 12 AWG wires feeding a 6 way fuse bus in parallel (manufacturer’s design of what I purchased).    4 of the 6 fuses available for circuits are tied to terminal 30 of each relay. I tied a jumper from one of my spare circuits off the bus to terminal 86 of each relay. The trigger, terminal 85, was pulled from my interior by way of T-Taps from the X61A-X5 pins 10, 11, 17 and 23. This was the hardest part of the job. Even with the X61A unbolted and the X5 removed - there was VERY little wiggle room.  I added back up lights that I want to come on with my cargo lamp - but when I would check continuity between S48A-X1 pin 18 to its respective landing point on the X61A-X5 it triggers the factory relay… Instead I opted for a add-a-fuse on the passenger interior fuse panel (fuse location 10 - cargo lamp) and ran it through the boot on the driver side to my load. Did this to avoid introducing any electrical gremlins.   Note: Please check for continuity between the S48A-X1 and the X61A-X5. In my case wire colours were not the same as other’s who have posted. To do a continuity check you need a Multimeter. Completely disassemble the S48A-X1 and remove the brown face plate off the X61A-X5 by way of a flat head screwdriver - this was the only way I could get any results.   The outputs, terminal 87 of the relays, were fed into a junction box and landed at Individual studs and were labelled Aux 1-4.    At this point, all you need to do is run wire to your loads and bring them to ground. I created a negative bus in the engine bay, all my negatives land here.    For anyone having issues with all of your new aux switch lights coming on with the press of one - I noticed this only to be an issue when the battery wasn’t hooked up to my relays? No idea why, but it was quickly corrected by having my system buttoned up and functional.

Thanks GM lol

      Don't need the air tube but that's how everyone sells them. Most places won't remove that one piece and sell it alone. No money to be made. Hoping someone swapped theirs out for a CAI and no longer wants it. Not asking anyone to give it away. Offering to buy it but I don't need the tube. It's held on by a hex head screw and nut. Been all over eBay.
