ok my truck is about to come on the lot, I got the window sticker and I see there is few options missing 

CREDIT - NOT EQUIPPED WITH FRONT & REAR PARK ASSIST; INCLUDES LATER RETROFIT

 

CREDIT - NOT EQUIPPED W/FRONT SEAT CUSHION VENTILATION (INCLUDES LATER RETROFIT)

 

CREDIT - NOT EQUIPPED WITH STEERING COLUMN LOCK

for those of you that got your trucks with missing options how long gm took to install the microchip to make those options functional?

Great...more for you to keep bitching about.....

Steering column lock won’t be retrofitted.

 

There is no information about when retrofits for the other items will happen, probably next year sometime. 
 

BTW, you call them options, they aren’t.

It's the chip shortage thingy my new ZL1 came in but only needed the heated steering wheel s a later retrofit so I am lucky I guess as where I live it won't ever see winter weather anyway,

Man, I understand that sometimes you just have to do what you gotta do, but I just can’t see myself paying for or accepting a partially built vehicle.  Especially not at the level of dollars these trucks cost.  I feel for ya.  I am so glad I went ahead and got my ‘21 instead of waiting like I contemplated.  Hopefully this crap will be sorted out before I need a new vehicle.

So you get a Credit , WHO payes for the Retrofit ????   BUY a Trucks with all the Parts .

The credit is a "we're sorry" deal. You don't pay for the retrofit. GM will notify you when they have the parts to install. The lower trim level trucks are the ones they're keeping the parts out of. All the Denali's and AT4X's have all their parts. GMC is now even out of parts for the multi pro tailgates! I thought that was their selling point was it was standard on all GMC's but there's a couple at my local dealer that are Elevation trim and have a credit for no Multi Pro tailgate, which CAN'T be retrofitted later!

Credit is for the inconvenience of taking it back so they can do the retrofit.

There is no published promise of when this might happen.

front and rear sensors 
 

First thing I disabled. I need my truck acting on it’s own like I need another insurance policy. No thanks. I’ll pay attention when I pilot 2.5 tons through public spaces at rapid speed. I even love the cover craft dash mat that covers that stupid hud red light and also eliminating the ridiculously unsafe amount of dash reflection and glare off windshield these trucks give. Wouldn’t sweat these sensors much, sounds like a bonus miss to me. 
 

get reliant on this shizzo and it will cost you, there’s a reason the seats vibe now when you back up and those sensors go off, before it was only beepers and if you had stereo too loud and just watched one mirror backing in you could get screwed, and welcome to my last accident in past however long without...never again, use all mirrors and back up camera, the sensors can go fack themselves, he liability is on you so best limit your reliance on those aids

 

heck even the factory drivers side mirror on my custom came with the built in convex but framed in, two instances where that frame had a gap that a vehicle could hide in and the convex wouldn’t show parking stall lines well, so ordered the non convex mirror and put my own 3” convex on like I do all vehicles and no more issues for both seeing people or lines. On nee flat mirror the top outside corner is where that car symbol lights up on higher trims to say don’t move lanes lol...the 3” convex covers it perfectly lol. I love how we always try to make things better and fack it up lol, but hey $2.50 at auto parts store can’t possibly be as good as the sensors and lights right?😉

    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?. 
    • He is not saying that an SAE *W20 will have more viscosity than a *W40 due to MORE VII polymers. He is saying that although multiple *W40 may post in the PDS the same or similar 100 C and 150 C viscosities that the blenders choice of modifier TYPE and AMOUNT to get his chosen base to grade will not give identical real world viscosities in shear and at temperature. All will pass the SII test but not all will pass the 100 C HTHS (unpublished value) testing the blender does and relies on to get the required by law "percentage improvement' referenced to his last great work.    Tis the problem with the lie. Once told others are required to support it. 
    • I have a `25, 1500 that auto sets on incline. Never knew that at first. I have the electronic shifter. Just think if it didn`t do that? Unlike a mechanical shift that you can muscle out of park, how would you get this thing out? That would be a problem.   What I found out later is, I don`t have to push the button to release. Just put it in gear.   Setting parameters? Don`t know if it`s possible.
