2023 1500 Duramax. Towed to dealer twice.

The fit and finish is good, fuel mileage is good, but had DEF sensor failure within the first week of ownership, towed to dealer. Two days ago left stranded in the bush, with full shut down while driving and no restart, the truck has 3000 kms on it. Had to hike out 10 kms to get signal to get a pick up. Will be without a truck again. Complete bullsh*t that a brand new truck has full failures like this. When talking with GMC Roadside assistance, huge hassle to get the truck recovered. I have owned a 2019 1500, 2021 3500 and now this lump. Will never buy a GMC again. I know Dodge and Ford are no better, but sick of issues with brand new trucks.

GM’s dirty little secret

I purchased this vehicle because it was announced it comes STANDARD with Blind Spot Detection and rear cross path detection. I was very unhappy when I drove of the lot and realized it was not there without any disclosure. The dealer told me GM decided not to add the feature and nobody seems to care. Yes on my window sticker I had a disclosure and a credit for the missing steering wheel lock??

Tailgate button, problems with engine, etc

The tailgate button is in a terrible spot, and can be pushed easily. And apparently it can open while on the highway. We lost $2500 of ski boots, skates and helmets because of this, it opened while on the highway. As well as this vehicle has broken down multiple times at this point, despite being new.

$63,000. Assumed our 4x4 purchase had a LOW range, as have all 4x4 vehicles I’ve ever owned….Nope. Have to get off road package for that! Was never mentioned during purchase. Didn’t know I had to ask! As others have mentioned, there is no owner’s manual. Also no 12 volt outlet of any kind!?! If you were expecting an integrated garage door/ gate opener, as on every and any other vehicle we have purchased over $30K in the last 10 years, forget about it. Must of been in some $5000 package not included. Personally like the ride and steering of this truck verse Ford and Ram. Didn’t consider Toyota or Nissan. Will try those as well next truck purchase, read that they include a low range in ALL of their 4x4 vehicles.
