Good idea. I hear ford's never have any sort of quality issues.

Had the same issue with my 2022 the dealer finally replaced the rear backup camera and so far it has not re-occured in over a 2 month.

The manufacturer has no idea whatsoever on how to fix this problem, let alone what causes it. Nor are they willing to replace anything.   Probably would have been better off buying a ford.

If anyone else is experiencing this issue at night, ask the dealership to lookup PIT5991.

Hi Gravel, is this a TSB that gm issued?

Yes, it's titled Rearview Camera Intermittent in Low Light Conditions.

 

However, when I spoke w/ Chevrolet customer service in an attempt to get some more information, they tried to convince me that the dealership made this and they had no way of locating it. I don't believe this to be true as multiple dealerships were able to look it up and confirm that it was generated by GM.

 

It's getting a bit annoying at this point as I do a lot of night driving and the camera is essentially ineffective.

I forgot to mention, there is currently no fix. It just says that engineering is working on identifying the cause and to not replace any parts.

I followed up with your suggestion and attached the photograph of the error that happened the very same day we picked the vehicle up from the dealership that was supposed to address this problem.

I went to back out of a parking spot last Thursday after a quick drink stop 2 hours into a 4-hour drive (in my '23 Sierra Denali) and I got that same screen.  No backup camera, no any cameras - just the error screen.  No camera Friday or Saturday, but nothing else unusual.  Sunday - dead battery, and I needed a jumpstart.   I drove 4 hours home and called the dealer Monday.  They can look at it in two weeks. 🙄  Yesterday (Wed), I opened the door and the running board came out, but the truck wouldn't start again, the dash gave me a myriad of errors (4wd, brake system, TCS, etc) which I'm sure was to the low voltage.  I hooked a battery charger up - 12 amp setting, Automatic Charger and current regulated - for 5 hours and the charge needle was still pegged and the charger was pretty warm, so I dropped it to the 2 amp setting and left it for another 3 hours and unplugged it when I went to bed.  I went out this morning to see if it would start.  I think it was reading about 12.3 volts - it fired right up.  I got the GMC logo on the infotainment screen for an extended period - probably 20-30 seconds and when it finally came up, I had lost the stored radio settings BUT I had cameras again.  I don't think I have a shorted cell in the battery (I'm reading 12+ volts) but I'm not driving it for fear of it leaving me stranded.  I was supposed to head out of town in it for the weekend, but I don't trust it, so I'm going to leave it in the garage without a Battery Tender on it and see if it starts on Sunday when I get back.  I don't know if I have a parasitic draw killing the battery or if my month-old truck has a bad battery.  I was thinking something with the camera system shorted and that was killing the battery, but now that the cameras are back, I don't know.  I didn't have any battery issues until right after the cameras went out.  Coincidence?  I don't think low voltage caused the first camera error as I had been highway driving for 2 hours immediately before with no signs of a weak battery before then - the battery should have had a good charge and continued to work fine the next two days, then the next morning, it didn't have enough juice to crank the starter.  The problem with the truck is troubling - BUT having to wait TWO WEEKS to have it looked at is MORE troubling.  At least I have an $80,000 tailgate workbench in the garage now while I work on other things and drive something else.

I would drop a dime on the dealer at GMC customer service. 2 week wait to cure a possible defective battery is unacceptable. You spent big bucks on that truck. 

Low system voltage on start-up will confuse modules in the system as that's when they boot up and battery provides stable voltage until charging system comes online. Solid battery is the foundation for our computers on tires.

My 22 has been doing this since the day I bought it. It's been to 3 different dealers and none have found anything wrong of course. No updates available according to all of them.

Have you heard anything new on this? Last I checked I was told there is still no fix.

No fix yet, they said to call the dealer every couple of weeks and touch base with them. Very frustrating and amazing that they can even find a work around for their own product. This has been happening for some time with several different models. So I wouldn’t hold my breath for a fix. No telling if engineers are even working on it.

Thanks for the information.  The backup camera on my 2022 Refresh 1500 LT is also drops out and then comes back on at night.

 

One question - Since the PITT5991 only specifies 2023 Silverados, does anyone know if this also applies to 2022 Refresh Silverados as well?

 

Thanks!

According to the bulletin, it does not. You can review the one files with NHTSA here.

      2015 Sierra Denali L86 cyl 5 misfire at idle

      By Gkistler · Posted

      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?

      Pulsating Noise 4Cyl Mode

      By zibzer2 · Posted

      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!

      Some Assembly is Required

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      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.

      Parking Brake - Automatic Engagement Questions

      By PunchT37 · Posted

      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.
