My truck has been exhibiting hard downshifting at certain speeds, when the powertrain loads up such as a grade change, and requires a downshift. I have complained about this issue to the dealership as early as 2022, and 33,185 miles. The dealership made me pay for a transmission $388.90 flush which did not resolve the issue. The problem has become progressively worse, to the point where the toll road transponder fell of my windshield during a recent harsh downshifting incident. At the same time there was an existing MIL and derating for a DEF heater and NOx sensor failure, so during a warranty visit I asked that this transmission issue be addressed. On Friday March 13, the dealership called and said they confirmed the hard downshifting, albeit not as extreme as I described. The technician said that the valvebody needs to be replaced. At the same time, they performed a TCM flash for the 10L1000 momentary wheel lockup recall. The dealership then said they could not get the truck to set a P0747 code, said that GM refuses to replace the faulty valve body, and recommended I take the vehicle home unrepaired, and to come back when the P0747 code is set. I requested they continue to drive the vehicle. Today March 20 the dealership called and said they could not get the code to set, and that I need to drive the truck and come back when the code appears, despite the truck exhibiting clear symptoms of a progressively wearing feed limit low valve. N242454441 does NOT seem to indicate a P0747 code is required to replace the valve body. This vehicle is not safe for towing a 20,000+lbs and GMC is refusing to repair a transmission with symptoms congruent with N242454441. The dealership still has possession of the vehicle and wants $360+ in diagnostic labor.

Known defect with 2019 and now 2020 GMC sierra trucks. Design was updated for 2021+ which has corrected the seal failure defect. GM has issued a service bulletin to dealers about how to repair the problem. Back window is leaking water. Defective seal noted by GM. GM is only covering the cost of repair if. Vehicle is still under 3/36 warranty. If outside your warranty cost from dealer to owner is $2500 to $6000. A known design failure GM recognized and took steps to change the design for future. Vehicles but will not stand behind vehicles that have this defect. Would like the cost to the repair fall back to GM to cover.

My IntelliBeam function stops working sometimes, I can still use the lights as normal but the IntelliBeam function stops every so often and starts working after about 2 to 10 mins. Lane departure warning stops every so often and will start working after 1 to 10 mins, I have noticed that when it stops working at night time then the IntelliBeam function stops working also. When I press the on/off button for lane departure then it will say that lane departure is unavailable right now. I have been getting a p20ee code showing something is wrong with SCR nox sensor 2. Scan tool reveals that the sensor works normal and then stops. Once I clear the code then it works good for a few days.

Valve body failed while pulling my camper down the interstate. Transmission began to have issues and locked up on us while driving. Luckily i was able to avoid any accidents. Had truck towed to a private Transmission shop to have the transmission repaired. Shop advised the failure was due to the faulty valve body.
Def heater connection on the tank will arc and melt down causing engine derate and costly repairs. Gm know and has released a service bulletins in 2022. Bulletins N212342980. But even with bulletins done still fails. And talking todealer ships it a very common problem and there is a shortage in parts.
Greetings. In December 2024, I brought my vehicle in for the rear end lock up recall. The recall reprogrammed the transmission control module. As admitted, by yourself and GM this doesn't fix the problem. In addition, if the lockup occurs and a new valve body is required, GM is on back order with no date for delivery. Also, it is replacing it with the same valve body, i.e. you will have the same problem in the future. Nextgen Drivetrain has a valve body for around $1000 that fixes the problem. [XXX] . Please read the attached blog from Nextgen, they explain in detail, the problems and the fixes. I am scared to death to pull my travel trailer out of state with this looming problem. Please give us a better solution. Thank you. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I was towing my 44'camper entering the highway and during excellration there was a loud bang and the truck shuddered no lights on the dash. Pulled over and did a visual check of the vehicle and did not see anything out of ordinary. Continued on our journey and during the the week noticed clunking noise when shifting into park and into drive with no camper. We shortened our trip and returned home with no futher incidents. Received recall letter from GM in December, called the dealer and was told Gm has not released my VIN number yet. Called twice in January 2025 and the software was done on February 20, 2025. Truck seems to run as it should. I use the truck for business and to tow my camper. The software is only a patch. My fear is I'm out traveling with my 44' camper and the truck goes into limp mode limiting to fifth gear. Then I have to get the truck towed home and the camper. I travel with 3 dogs too. GM has known about this issue and has failed to fix the problem leaving me and my family at risk of a serious accident. I can not work without my truck and GM does not care about me or my family. I have several camping trips scheduled for this year and I'm considering canceling them because I don't feel comfortable with the software update.

This is a life safety issue as the rear wheels can lock up at any time which could cause a vehicle accident involving the vehicle under recall as well any vehicles on the road around this vehicle when it happens. General Motors should be taking care of this asap instead of waiting. I do not feel safe driving the vehicle until they feel like they installing it.

I have a complaint about the recall response from both nasal and gm. I feel the cure is substandard. Why not just put new transmission control modules in to correct this problem. Very disappointed
There is a current safety recall N232426400 on GMC pickups including the year of my truck. GMC is saying that my VIN is not covered by the recall. However, I have the multi-pro tailgate and it came open about 6 months ago on its own as i was backing up and it caused me to run into my trailer with the tailgate. I put my tailgate up after moving my truck from under my trailer and then when i went to back up somehow the tailgate popped open and i didnt know and it contacted the top of tailgate while it was down.
driving 65mph on interstate, attempted to change lanes to pass slower vehicle and pressed upon accelerator pedal...truck violently skidded to a stop and sent me onto shoulder, many vehicles behind me swerved to avoid my vehicle. GM wont repair and says since they cant replicate its not really happening. this has happened twice in last 2 weeks.
Crash
driving 65mph when vehicle attempted to downshift itself for no reason when instead the rear axles locked up and made a massively loud bang as if axle fell off, let off gas, smoke pouring from rear tires, skidded about 8 feet, it released then locked up 2 more times within 30 secs before I could get off road out of traffic flow. mfd has a tsb for this issue(#21-NA-275 GM) not sure if its transmission or braking system Dealer service could not replicate and told me it was probably my trailer(wasnt traveling with trailer) no warnings, no codes occurred initially at 56000 mile, has happened 10 or 12 times since then. very scary, im afraid to drive or tow now that dealer mentioned trailer brakes.
driving 45 mph westbound i70 at eisenhower tunnel, vefhicle made loud bang, brakes locked up momentarily slowing vehicle to around 25mph. multiple vehicles had to make evasive manuevers to avoid collision. vehicle released after a 15FT skid. pulled over to safety and inspect for damage, tires were falt spotted but no damage was visible. called dealer servcei and was told to make appt and set for diagnostic. service could not replicate or find damage so I was sent on my way and told if it does it again let us know. I am scared to drive this vehicle its unsafe
driving approximately 50 mph when vehicle suddenly made loud bang and locked up rear brakes for 25' coming to a stop in road side ditch, numerous vehicles had to make evasive actions to avoid me and other vehicles. flat spotted tire abut no visible physical damage. sat on side of road for transmission temp to cool down then drove to shop without repeat. called dealer was told the earliest appt was a month away. have not been able to repeat incident so far. this has happened a few times and is becoming more frequent, mfg has tsb issued but indicates they cant assist because my warranty has expired so i will have to pay 225 per hour diagnostic fee. this is untenable and dangerous. this needs a recall and repair ASAP.

I was driving approximately 60mph pulling a trailer when the back tires locked up for approximately 2 seconds. This happened 3 times within 30 minutes. I've taken it to the GM repair shop. They have seen this happen to 3 or 4 vehicles. Due to not being able to replicate the fault it has been difficult to diagnose. They are going to replace the transmission valve body hoping that will take care of the issue. This is extremely dangerous to everyone on the road when this happens. There are many forums out there that I've read and have been close to deadly accidents involving cars, trucks, RV's, and semis as they've ran off the roads. This seems to be something worth looking into and ensuring GM puts out a recall for. In my case, I am going through an extended warrant for my 2020 3500 with 112,000 miles. The warranty company wants the GM technician to replicate the fault... which isn't possible without hooking up a trailer... also very dangerous which I refuse to do until the issue if resolved. In any case, I will have to hook up a trailer once the part is replaced... praying that it won't happen again.
Vehicle will not start due to known GM issues. This failure left my family stranded in cold dark unsafe area once already. If we were in the flow of traffic or had to leave an area immediately we would have been unable too. Known GM issue, engine fault code P12A6 fault code. Bulletin: PIP5719A discusses this issue. I am being told by the dealer there is a newer bulletin which advises ECM update. GM dealer is stating ECM software upgrade is required to resolve at owners expense. Owner is responsible for diagnostic fee in addition to repair costs. If the issue is not resolved vehicle may continue to experience starting failure and or other electrical problems. The night the vehicle left us stranded instrumentation was erratic and not reading properly on the instrument cluster. Very unsafe and GM should reach out to customers to inform them a software update is needed and it should not be at the expense to the consumer if the consumer is out of the bumper to bumper warranty.

Goodyear Wrangler Trailrunner AT, LT275/65R20, factory installed on a 2020 GMC Sierra Denali 3500. While traveling 60 mph pulling a fifth wheel in South Texas on a clear and dry day, the rear passenger tire unexpectedly lost its tread. As we slowed down, it completely lost tire pressure and we ran on the rim until coming to a complete stop. Immediately prior to the incident, the TPMS and other safety systems in the truck read normal. There were no system warnings and no objects in the road. It put us in a dangerous situation as we were stopped on the shoulder of the highway right before a bridge and had our 3 children in the backseat. We called the police, but they never sent anyone to help with traffic. The rear fender and the wheel well of the truck were badly damaged. We have the faulty tire and it is available for inspection.
Plugged in engine block heater and the car erupted in flames. Total loss.
