Thanks for the heads up!

I wonder if they would ever be able to say that the lack of update actually damaged the vehicle. The software wasnt updated for X number of miles before they provided an update. Maybe the damage happened then lol.

I think that's just some dumb shit someone decided to write an article about.

When I bring mine to a dealer I asked them to do all the updates.

If things worked right in first place updates wouldn’t be needed. Some how my 2500 made it off the line with a non functioning home screen and infotainment power button. Spent 5 days at the dealership in its first month of ownership……

They should come with a dead blow hammer in the glove box!

Stated to me last night while eating fajitas in a local joint, by a local GM tech, "You can tell when updates come out because appointments jump from shit not working the way it's supposed to". I've had three in the last 90 days.

What bot would that be?

When a certain member here has too many bourbons, he refers to me as a bot because he thinks he is the know all, be all, never wrong poster who is used to all his fanboys bowing down and worshiping the ground he passes out on.

Also he's batting 1.000 with bot posts!
