You will be stranded! A serious problem 2023 Colorado and Canyon trucks!

An Over the air (OTA) vehicle update from GM is bricking hundreds of new Chevrolet Colorados and GMC canyons!

Well that explains why older cars and trucks has a high resale value.

[@faraon2012]

New cars expensive garbage 😮

[@jimsomerville3924]

Over the air updates on vehicles seem like a solution in need of a problem. They really shouldn't need to be updated often, and I'd rather it occur in a controlled environment during a service.

[@RossMalagarie]

I wish there was a setting to only have the dealer install updates that way they can fix and problems found and if not they can give me a loaner until they fix it. Most get an oil change about every 6 months so that should be good enough for 2 updates a year.

[@brohammer]

works perfectly fine in teslas, and why would you ever want to go into a dealership *cringe*

[@RossMalagarie]

@@brohammer oil change, brake pad change, tire rotation, regular maintenance stuff software update, so if the update drains the battery like some are currently the dealership can give you a loaner and fix it instead of waking up to your truck dead and having to tow it to the dealership while you are now late to work.

[@dlg5485]

OAU are not the problem. It's actually a convenient way to get important updates to your vehicle without you having to take it in to the dealer, which is always a nightmare. The problem is that GM hasn't implemented it well. I worked at GM for 15 years until they closed my plant and they have always had these kinds of issues with 'new' tech. That said, I'm not a GM hater. I'm actually considering buying a Colorado, but not until these annoying launch issues are resolved.

[@RossMalagarie]

This is why I prefer models at the end of their manufacturing cycle. By then the vehicles run well and are typically discounted since the newest model is about to launch.

[@Resistculturaldecline]

GM hasn't been perfecting anything in a long while. They keep bouncing from one system to another, in a perceptual new-vehicle glitch period. They're always using a new tech that regularly uses the consumer as low-overhead R&D mules. GM will "fix" this issue, as many others with a system that is even more finicky. As they close in on a real remedy, they'll change tech systems and sell it as "innovative new features".

Truck went to dealership and they had it for 2 more days and said it was battery. By Thursday after 4:00 pm went to dealership and asked what going on with truck because I was paying for a rental that dealership was supposed to pay for but didn’t, until I said some to them about not paying for it like they said they would. So they had truck for 2 days and I still waited another 2 hours on Thursday (6:00). They said they replaced battery but took them 2 days. Bad experience with Service department.

I hope they get it resolved quickly for you

I just got my Canyon back from the service dept. The service technician tried update the system and burned out the system. I was told this is happening a lot. They replaced the system and turned off the updating part of the system and told me to bring the truck in for the updates. But these issues not fixed yet.

Almost 2k miles on my trail boss and no issues. I’ll do what u said and keep an eye out, thanks!!

I had an issue where my android system wouldnt start on infotainment (screen was on, just had an OS message). My gauge cluster was fine. Disconnected battery for 5 minutes and it fixed it. Only real issue ive had with 6500 miles in 2 months.

By any chance you know hot to disable the auto stop completely. Mine keeps turning it on every time I turn my truck on. I looks that that button or option has no memory to stay off. Like other buttons

It happen to me also in July 2023 Colorado

My truck infotainment and dash wouldn't shut off. The dash screen said "SHUT DOWN" and stayed on after the truck was off and I had opened the door. This was at night, so my lights also stayed on for over 20 min while I looked on the internet for the solution. I read about the update issue and left my truck running for about 30 min to let the update happen. It shut down like normal after that.

This is why we don't buy vehicles that connect to the internet and rely on it.

I noticed you also had the blinking bar on the upper left of the screen. I was thinking my screen was messed up

[@bradleypangborn9349]

I've noticed the blinking bar on mine also

[@richiegrall4031]

Just happened to my 23 canyon AT4 last week

[@steamloco1705]

Guess i'll never get rid of my 13 4runner , old fashioned radio w cd , analog clocks , no digital trash or updates , after all a truck is a truck , not a supercomputer on wheels.

Luv this video, because after twenty years of GM vehicles, I started "seeing things" about GM vehicles. Anyway, GM claims to have revamped the "Battery Discharge After OTA Update" problems.

[@ethenjordan2010]

Had my Denali for 1100 miles and so far, no issues. Knock on wood.
