First off, I'm going to say this has to be the worst forum EVER to try to search for a common issue! WTF is with all the pop-ups??? It didn't seem to be this bad back when I was more active on this site in the past. Anyway, my new HC with auto retract running boards will not always deploy the boards. They'll start to come out when I open my door to get out, then they'll retract midway. I'll have to open and close the door 2-3 times sometimes to make them deploy all the way. I've tried to figure out some kind of a pattern to it, but it just seems so random. Anyone else having this issue??

It sounds as though something is binding or blocking drift boss

Talked to the local GM Tech & he said that more than likely a small rock(s) get lodged in the hinges, which makes sense as it's random & I live up a gravel road. I guess I'll just have to deal with it!

Yeah, I debunked the rock theory myself and recently told that same tech it wasn't a rock causing them to do that. I just did a GM factory survey and let them know about it. Some days they work flawlessly, others I have to open and close the doors a few times before the deploy all the way. I'm sure there are others beside us having this issue. My truck started doing this on the second day I got it home, now approaching 4k miles

there is a new bulletin that just came out for this issue. it is to reprogram them. wonder if it will help. my passenger side has acted up 1 time in the 350 miles i have owned it.

 

my other issue with them, is they are slow as sh*t. amp and ford boards are way faster. 

wonder if the bulletin speeds them up??

Thanks for the info! It seems every time I mention something like this to a dealership, they act all surprised like I'm the first guy on the planet to have these problems! Anyway, this new truck purchase is the first vehicle I've ever bought the extended warranty for as I figured with all this electronic BS, that'll be what fails after the normal warranty period.

here is one a bunch of examples i can show

Yep, exact same thing I'm dealing with! So, hopefully it'll get fixed with a computer flash then!

    • Monday looks like a good day for the dealer to test an ac issue. Hopefully it all turns out good.
    • Paid $2.72 for E85 today.
    • Welcome back! No, it definitely doesn't pass the sniff test. Even "ceasefire" needs an alternative definition these days.    $5.29 at Kroger today
    • That makes sense, and I think you are describing the real product problem. Capturing data is the easy part. If the owner or technician has to manually dig through five minutes of millisecond-level logs, the product has already failed. The device would be at the ECM harness, not at the OBD port, so I agree that data retrieval and event marking need to be thought through carefully. The way I am thinking about the architecture is: The recorder itself should not depend on a phone, app, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or cloud connection to capture the event. It should always keep a local rolling buffer and lock the event locally. A button, phone app, or small cabin device would only act as an event marker. If the driver feels a stumble and presses the button 10–30 seconds later, the pre-buffer has to already contain the useful data. For data retrieval, the practical options would be a sealed service USB lead, Wi-Fi download, or a phone/cabin companion device. I would not expect the owner to remove the ECM-side module or work with raw files directly. The cloud or AI side would be for interpretation, not for capturing the event. The truck may have no connection when the issue happens, so the evidence has to be saved locally first. After that, cloud processing could help decode the data, compare it against baselines, and generate a readable report. For the first version, I would keep the automatic triggers conservative and objective: driver event marker bus-off error passive voltage drop / brownout device reset FIFO or queue overflow a normally periodic message disappearing side-to-side communication mismatch, if the topology supports that For “learning normal,” I agree with your point, but I would not want to overclaim it as automatic root-cause diagnosis at first. A realistic first step would be learned baseline comparison for that specific vehicle and operating condition. For example, a value would only be compared against similar conditions: RPM range load / MAP throttle position gear / vehicle speed coolant and oil temperature battery voltage AFM/DFM state, if decoded and validated Then the report could flag things like: this periodic message disappeared compared with its normal timing this value deviated from this vehicle’s normal range under similar conditions the same abnormal pattern repeated after the same type of event the anomaly occurred together with voltage, oil-pressure, misfire, or communication changes But I would still call that “abnormal pattern detected,” not “replace this part,” unless there is enough validated repair data behind it. So the intended product would not be “here is a huge log.” It would need to be an event package: what triggered the capture how much pre/post data was preserved what changed before and after the event whether the device itself reset, overflowed, or saw a bus error selected graphs around the event raw data only as supporting evidence From your perspective, what would make this kind of report useful instead of just another datalog? For example: What are the top 5 parameters or events you would want highlighted first? Would you trust a learned baseline for that specific vehicle, or would you prefer fixed thresholds? How much false-positive flagging would be acceptable before you stopped looking at the reports? What would a one-page report need to show for an independent shop to take it seriously? For misfire, AFM/DFM, oil pressure, or U-code complaints, what would you want the tool to flag automatically?
