Does anyone know what the recall was for? I just got it 2 days ago for my 2024 silverado LT 1500. I read what up date was for, but didn't really understand what it was updating.

What was the recall #?  Should be like "N242435630" as an example.  Should show you in the update history/updates installed in the update section in radio settings.

I just got a message on my center display today, saying there was a pending update.  I think the number ended in 132.  It said something about updating for the low oil pressure indication.  

 

Does that sound like what you got, 15 z71?

Some GMC Sierra And Yukon Units Need An ECM Software Update 

By George Barta

August 22, 2025 6:06 am 

GM has issued a Service Update that applies to certain units of GMC full-size trucks and SUVs, including the Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL, which is related to an ECM software update. For GMC models, it applies specifically to the 2021-2024 Sierra 1500 and 2022-2023 Yukon and Yukon XL.

The Service Update, number N252510321, applies both to vehicles brought to the dealership by customers and to Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL units currently in dealer inventory. The involved trucks and SUVs are marked “Open” on their Investigate Vehicle History page.

 

Affected models need a software update to add a Driver Information Center (DIC) warning message to the existing Check Engine Light if DTC P0016 is set. If the necessary update isn’t applied, drivers may not be adequately notified of a potential problem that the Check Engine Light is trying to show them.

The fix involves reprogramming the Engine Control Module (ECM). Luckily for owners who have accepted the applicable terms and conditions, the necessary software changes can be made via an over-the-air (OTA) update, so they won’t have to bring their GMC to a dealership. For those who do go to the dealership for the fix, it should take less than an hour.

 

The fix is available free of charge to Sierra, Yukon, and Yukon XL owners through the end of the specific truck or SUV’s New Vehicle Limited Warranty period. It’s unclear at this time how many models are affected, but we know that only the aforementioned model years are affected.

The 2021-2024 GMC Sierra 1500 and 2022-2023 GMC Yukon/Yukon XL all ride on the GM T1 platform, which debuted when the current-generation Sierra came out for the 2019 model year. We’re expecting the next generation of GM full-size trucks to arrive for the 2027 model year, and their respective SUV versions should follow shortly thereafter.

When I brought my 22 refreshed Denali in for the L87 recall, they did the ECM software update.  #N252510321.

    • Today I filled up with 4.899 gallons of fuel at a cost of $4.899 a gallon. $24 bucks. 290 miles. 59.2 mpg. After my 4% COSTCO discount just under eight cents a mile.  
    • Howdy folks,   Recently I pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain (part numbers coming soon - will have to disassemble), and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash for the heating element.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires. I ran it to the positive of the heated steering wheel (Violet/White), and took black to ground.   Hooked up the battery, turned the truck on - no heated steering wheel. No button backlights. Was pleased to see that my cruise control was working though.   Read a post suggesting reversing polarity, so I gave it a shot. Violet and White to ground, Black to power.    Aha! Heat! But I seemingly can’t turn it off AND still no backlights on any of the buttons.    Checked all fuses, everything is still in good order. I’m stumped.   Does anyone have any insight? If so, please share!
    • I'm about 1800 miles into my last oil change, and yesterday a message appeared saying oil life was at 77%. Not sure why it popped up but I think all of these electronics could be susceptible to solar flares or somesuch. I change my oil right at 3K each time, and that was the first time in 10870 miles that message came up. Strange thing is that it showed on the screen at all since I don't drive with that sort of info displayed on the DIC.
    • I’m praying that someone sees this and can help me out… pulled a heated steering wheel and clock spring out of a 2015 Sierra All Terrain, and just installed it on my 2016 Sierra WT (as base model as it gets).   On install, I noticed that I’m missing the connector often tucked behind the dash.     No problem… or so I thought.   I used an “Add-A-Fuse” at my heated steering wheel fuse location, which has voltage, but no wires.

    • Checked the pads today and there's plenty of meat on them. If the message keeps coming up, I'll just answer YES that the pads were replaced and wait for the squeal.
