@newdude I will ask them about it but i believe thats the update they tried and said would fix it but didnt and that is when they told me they now designed it this way and that all the trucks now did it. Does your truck do it?

Thanks for responding Paul. Ive disabled the alexa app but it still does it. My point is if all the trucks arent doing it then they should be able to fix it and admit there is a problem and not how they designed it. So your truck is doing it?

Nope.  Functions normal.  

 

This update is from June 11th so its rather fresh.

Disabling the Alexa app fixed it for me.

 

But, I've also disable Google assistant as I don't have a data plan (gets rid of the speech services message at startup).

 

You can try disabling the assistant and see what happens.

Mine does the same thing, according to my dealer there’s no fix.  I found a bulletin PIT6032B online on it but says no fix available and my dealer said the same thing.  Mine does it every time I get in the truck since I bought it new  (23 At4).

I have a '24 2500 LT, and I noticed that it started doing the same thing a couple weeks ago when it got a lot hotter out. I've had the truck since November, and hadn't noticed it before, but that may be because it wasn't hot enough to care.

 

FWIW I had a '21 2500 High Country and a '22 3500 LTZ, and I don't remember either of those trucks doing this ever.

I contacted the dealership about the update newdude mentioned and they are going to install it. They said according to the computer this is supposed to be the fix for this problem. ill let everybody know if it fixes it.

 

borsta1 thats what they told me the after they replaced three different parts that there wasnt a fix yet. Then an update in January came out and that didnt fix so they told me that gm designed it that way and it was working how it was supposed to and all gm trucks did this and not to bring my truck back again.

  

bowtieowner it only does it when the a/c turns on high which is when u want it the most

@MidTNDenali Have you had a chance to test yours out? 

 

I will be going to the dealership tomorrow, and want to discuss this with them.  If one or two more people could share that they are NOT having this issue with their trucks, I would really appreciate it! 

My auto A/C button never shuts off.  Have to lower the fan manually.

Update they installed the software update, and it has seemed to fix the issue.

So we are having an issue with our GMC Sierra 1500 2020 at the dealership, they ended up breaking our radiator when they did an oil change. So we took it in, and once we got it back, every time my husband drives the car, if the air conditioning is running after it was on for a while, the engine would turn itself off completely.. He has to put the car in park and restart.   Now there is a check engine light on, but they can't seem to figure out what is going on with the truck and they've had it now a few times. The time frame does seem to kind of coordinate around when they say that update was in June. So, i'm wondering if that's what the issue is... And we live in south Florida. Either way, a truck shouldn't turn off itself while you're driving, it is dangerous and clearly something is wrong. And if they can't seem to figure out what it is than it needs to be a recall... bottom line. Makes me think that they just want people to buy new trucks. I wonder if anybody has ever tried to sue them over something like this... honestly. Cause it's really not fair with the price of how much these vehicles cost these days.  Please let me know if your issue is similar to this.  Thanks

Your issues are totally unrelated to this thread.  And your dealer is doing it very wrong if they bust the radiator doing an oil change.  Seriously reconsider what dealer you drive to, to get it fixed.

      Transmission Temperature Hitting 220s

      By TrueBlue · Posted

      Thanks, so being a different beast altogether, anyone know what the "optimal" temp is for the 10L80/90 for proper shifting?

      Some Assembly is Required

      How many years have I pointed out every point in that link to the folks here and been avalanched with criticisms and outright hostilities at times? I ran counter to even the great CUSTOMBOSS and Lake Speed Jr and the half dozen experts on YouTube and in the final.....GM, Physics (Stribeck) backs that Grumpy old Bear.    Honestly, I never said a thing engineering hadn't studied silly and laid in concrete during WWII. But I'm old, the information is old and yet, the Laws of Physics are eternal.    Okay there is one exception. I vehemently disagree with their use of the word 'tolerances' when what it meant is "clearance".   The clearance is the distance between two objects. The tolerance is the degree of acceptable variation permitted in that clearance. I.E., piston to bore clearance is 0.004" with a tolerance of +/- .0002" so the clearance is in specification if it lies between 0.0038" and 0.0042". Cutting that 'tolerance in half has ZERO impact on lubrication requirements. Makes for more difficulty in manufacturing.  But a tighter clearance 'MAY'. Depends on finish. Anyway....   It's one of those statements made by people to make themselves look smarter than they are to convince people who are as un-enlighten as they seem to manipulate their behaviors. But hey, the blind leading the blind puts them both in the pit.

      Gas Prices

      By Grumpy Bear · Posted

      Out and about yesterday on a long Saturday drive I passed a lot of Shell stations. My preferred, so I pay attention. Lot's of small town Illinois so not six stations in three blocks like the city.    Everyone of them over a radius of say 100 miles had regular at $4.19 but one which was the one closest to home at $4.15. However Premium pricing varied greatly between 85 cents over regular to $1.50 over. I'm not counting the price of the station with the lowest regular so the reference is the same for the remainder and all within the same brand. However the spread discrepancy holds across all brands.     @txab, any thoughts on that?

      Future GMC Jimmy

      By revrnd · Posted

      What are your thoughts? The Chevy Blazer relaunch was an epic case of 'lunchbag letdown'. Jeep Wranglers and Ford Broncos stick out like a sore thumb.    The AI photos do not look like a 'retro version', but shrunken Tahoes. Get away from the 'futuristic look'. I've seen two concepts. One had rectangular headlight like a Rivian and the other way too big headlights (similar to a previous non-Wrangler SUV) should include dual round headlights like the early version.   If not this would look OK   At least it has GM styling (albeit the K2XX) A lot of the images floating around look like Bronco IIs or the current Bronco. Looking at the Broncos in my area (central Ontario, it seems to be a mix of 2 doors and 4 doors, 'mall rated' to ones that could go offroad.    I'm sure a AT4 and AT4X RPOs could be outfitted similar to a Rubicon if the braintrust understood the whole offroad scene. Crossing my fingers that if it does see the light that the front air dam/bumper doesn't extend below the center line of the tire...

      Silverado 4500-5500-6500 are they still being produced? Would have sold better as GMCs as well
