What owners wrote
I drove home from work,parked ,took a shower did some honey dues at home then.went out to due some shopping and in like a two hour spand my truck dash melted burned alot of stuff...thank god nobody was driving when it happened!!!!!
The navigation does not track my vehicle properly. The key fobs fail over 50% of the time. The uconnect application on my phone fails to work over 50% of the time and truck will not start, lock or unlock. The truck says the key fob left the vehicle when it is still in the vehicle causing a safety concern when driving. Even with new batteries in the fobs. The updates have failed different times due to something called the sierra bolo wireless card.
