Chevrolet trying to re-invent the wheel isn't working. Stay safe Dustin.
For a brand new truck, it is definitely unexuseable. Thanks for sharing, Dustin 👍
I'd be a bit peeved spending $80k for a vehicle I couldn't rely on.
The price of new vehicles has gotten out of control but people still buy them except me 😂. Have a great day Dustin. 💪💪🇺🇸🇨🇱🙏✝️
How are these people able too afford a really expensive 80k - 100k?
I really don't understand that
I've got a new F150 and haven't had any issues yet. Fingers crossed...
I drive them for work. Been stranded twice with starter failures on different trucks. Good luck. 👍
it can happen to any truck, anything made in production can have problems
Exactly what I said in my last comment bro. 😅 Ive got the exact same truck just mine is black no problems. This owner just has a manufacturing defect.@kirkdunn1379
I'm keeping my 04 F350 with a key 🔑
I think you need to start saying you "refuse to downgrade to a newer model".
I just towed one of these yesterday. It threw a rod. Customer stated it happened while sitting at a red light. Says he was just sitting there idling and suddenly it started making a strange noise. When the light turned green he went to accelerate away from the intersection so he could pull over to the side of the road safely. He says the moment he took his foot off the brake he heard something that sounded like breaking glass, and the engine stopped. When I arrived at the intersection, I found a piece of broken connecting rod on the ground with the Piston pin still attached. I can only assume the Piston was in the oil pan, or what remained of it at least
Holy crap!!!
😮. Bummer!!! 😬
I've been thinking about buying a new truck and using my old 2003 Silverado (zero rust and runs good) as a trade in. But watching this channel is lowering my confidence in the newer technology. I think I'll just have a local shop modernize my old 2003 (only 130,000 miles) and keep using it for the rest of my life. At 64, I really don't want to get into a long payment plan for an over-priced boat anchor anyway. I'd have to get the very expensive, full coverage insurance as well. Bidenomics has made upgrading to new stuff nearly impossible.
When Harris becomes president, it's only going to get worse buckle up for four more years
@@boldlygo3469 if you have full coverage on your 03 please think it out
My husband has a 2010 silverado and i have a 2008 trailblazer and we just keep them maintained and rust proof them . We both have 300,00 km and more and a little rust but we are going to keep driving them as long as we can. I dont want my time and money wasted at the dealership. Sad state of affairs😮😮😮
I have a 2017 gmc canyon love it, if you don’t need a full size it’s a great little truck. Granted I only have 22,000 miles on it because I’m a truck driver for a living but nice little truck
You can add your own Kenwood or Sony radio with back up camera, Compustar Remote start etc and have way better and more reliable electronics and a much more reliable vehicle. Win win for you
Glad you were able to get the truck started and moved onto the road. Made it all easier. That would have been a pain if you had to drag it.
Too much technology in new vehicles
I don’t believe I’d buy anything brand new.
Why are all these GM vehicles having all this trouble? If I were in the market for a new truck or SUV, I definitely would not be looking at anything made by GM! I've seen you tow more of this make than any other!!! GM isn't doing themselves any favors by having a lot of their products being towed back to the selling dealer for repairs!!!
man i've been thinking about getting a 3500HD, but i think i'm going with the F-450
Back in the day a truck was used for ranchers and farmers hard work,,very simple trucks. Now they have turned them truck in to luxurious junk that the price is unbelievable Higher than a luxury sedans just selling badges things that you don’t need as a truck person ..
I really believe people was telling GM too make trucks more luxury and more Technology
I believe people got there wish
"So much electronics, and unnecessary stuff these days" 🤔 preach on brother. This is why my 1998 Dodge Ram, 2500 Cummins 24 valve, and my 2003 Durango, are both in their 20s. It seems like the quality of everything, since "COVID" has greatly dropped. Lame huh? 😒
These newer trucks are junk
“GM”
For real. I have a 2024 Silverado 2500 11,000 miles and my shackles are shot
There is recall for same issue with OTA updates. They have to get hard update at dealer.... seen on TH-cam video for C8 Corvettes
@@Mmarra88That is insane
GM issued a recall on this problem. Just as said in the video, an update issued by GM is causing the computer on the truck to remain on thus creating a constant draw which in turn is killing the battery. Have to take my 23’ Silverado in at some point before I end up like this.
Nice to spend all that money and then have to go spend your valuable time fixing their fcckups.
I learned that lesson with a brand new fix or repair daily I had between 2018 and 2022. They didn't care one bit fixing my car right or wasting my time as long as they could run through their hoops. Then when it came to a loaner vehicle for warranty claims it was tough luck, if you want to rent a car through the agency in cahoots with the stealership they will refund a small portion of that and that is it. Not only do you have to pay your car payment while it is in for repair, you have to pay for a rental.
NEVER ! If I won a billion dollars from the lottery. I still would never pay that kind of money for a pickup. It's already is to much paying 35 to 39 thousand for a base model. Also turbo's don't belong on regular old street / work truck except diesel . Bring back keys in all vehicles. Also get off my lawn you kids.
😂
@@leonardpoindexter5289 be the first thing they buy I guarantee.......poverty mind set goes bye bye when millions roll into your acct
I like all your videos Dustin I don't care what you post I still watch it all your videos are interesting
Thank You!
I’m getting my self a flat bed truck just like yours 😂 that’s the only one that seems don’t break down. Good job keep up the good work 😊
It's the new first step in dealing with car trouble: "Try rebooting your vehicle."
Great content Dustin ❤ it says alot when people recognize you and ask about your situation in employment. You definitely make a positive impression
I've got the exact same truck no problems. His just has a manufacturing defect along with the other new jeep etc Dustin's been picking up lately. It's called manufacturing malfunctions it happens often no big deal except on the makers. He'll be compensated well with another 0 mile truck if it can't be resolved by the dealer but it will. Mine is black & I got Nittos with KMC red & black rims that weigh 50lbs less than the stocks with tires & just installed myself a new K&N intake day before yesterday. It's the #1 truck of America right now worth every penny. This owner just got a flop ECU.
Glad there was no intro clip, keep it that way. Thanks
I haven’t had an intro in a long time. I’ve just been doing a teaser clip lately.
My 2012 purrs like a kitten.
In this case drive that $100,000 POS on your bed you deserve something easy for a change good job
I have a 2024 DuraMax ZR2. Absolutely no issues!
The only way I will ever take possession of a new GM product is if it's given to me. Until then I'll keep driving my 2002 Chevy Trailblazer with almost 312,000 miles on it & still running fine.
It’s a battery problem or a loss connection. I have a 2019 and I got the OEM batteries replaced 2 times under warranty in 3 years and the 3rd time I got a pair of Optima batteries and haven’t had a problem again. The OEM batteries are junk.
Just found your channel and I really enjoy it! Keep up the good work.
I think the battery is dead as a doorknob
I haven’t had that problem yet, but I have to park regen it about every 600 miles, with 10,919 miles.
Have you tried using Hot Shot’s Secret products? They make a product called EDT (Every Day Treatment), that you add to each new tank of fuel. You only have to use 1 oz per fill-up. Our family has been using this in our diesel vehicles and equipment, and it works really well. You can just do a search to learn more about Hot Shot’s Secret brand products. Best of luck.
Theyre meant to tow heavy, not daily drive.
@@Travis12861 Yep, mine is well worked, it’s a 3500 service truck fully loaded to the quills. And still have to park regen it every 600 miles, or walk.
@@bobbygarrett9588do you idle it up when you idle? Might do anything I drive a newer Pete and was always told to idle up to 800 rpm. I hate DEF it’s so dumb and expensive
@@SuperBobblehead77 I will give it try, anything will be better than looking for a parking lot every 600 miles for a minimum of 30 minutes for a regen. Thanks for the advice.
I like the Mad Max spike covers on the front lug nuts.
Gotta be glad you paid $85 G for a useless lawn ornament, still daily driving my 1988 lincoln Town car, never been towed yet.
😂 new vehicles are junk!
Colorado's had the same issue. There are fixes for both trucks currently. They update over the air and end up draining the battery if the update fails. Owners must go to a dealer for the software fix.
This is a problem with all modern GM vehicles with over the air updates. When the new Colorado came out it was a huge problem with them.
So far so good with my 24 chevy 2500 LT, alittie over 10k miles. I did get an email from Chevy telling me I need to schedule an appointment for the software update with the title of "Action Required".
GM is the Boeing of automobiles these days. The bean counters have supplanted the engineers.
Battery may be shot. The new AGM battery’s don’t die a slow death like the lead acid ones do. They short out internally and then display erratic behavior and operation. AGM batteries are about $300 ea and should last longer but if you get a bad one a year is not unusual.
I noticed also after Dustin started it, the side mirrors didn't fold out.
Every vehicle in my household has a jump box in it. Cheap insurance.
I haven't had any of the modern ones but we keep cables in our vehicles. The lead acid battery ones that you have to charge regularly just went bad too often for us. I drive a Prius which can start with a battery well beyond dead but I have jumped a few other people with them. They cost $20 at Harbor Freight 16ft 6 gauge.
@@Defianthuman You should look into getting the new jump box. New battery technology, same as your cordless power tools.
I have a 2024 3500hd Duramax. I’ve had the same no start issue I experienced mine at under 10,000 miles. It’s happened twice now. The second time I lifted the battery cables for a few minutes and I got it to start and run kinda like a reset. The first time it happened the truck would turn over but not start. After waiting on a tow truck for a few days (Heavy Snow) the truck went dead and we jumped it and it started, we took it to the dealer.
Great job Dustin!!! That is so sad. Seems like all Chevys are missing the mark right now. 😀😀😀
I have been buying Tahoes and Escalades for my business truck for several years, using a Dodge / Ram diesel trucks for 25 years as personal truck. Been thinking strongly about trading in the current Tahoe for a 2500 duramax instead of getting another SUV. But the recent videos by several people about the new duramax trucks makes me question trying a duramax.
I love what you are doing mat
Still trying to figure out what was wrong with just using a key…
Rotten Cp3 pumps then the transmissions on the Vette’s the C7’s that they said we are not warranting anything. 58 Vette 283 dual quads four speed 3.55 posi with radio heater and a credit card for gas. Oops and the open road. Now that’s a vehicle!!!
The battery was dead nothing more 😅
I guess you didn’t listen to a single thing I said during the whole video lol
That’s why i look old school non electronic crap yes you mechanical things go wrong. But your vehicle can be moved towed without issues
Friend: Hey can you help me haul a bedroom set around noon?
Me: sorry bro, my Truck software needs an update so it will stop running my battery dead.
😂😂😂
Also me: Did you ask Bobby he has a Dodge Cummins you know, a Real Truck? 😂
Consider this an instance of GM become "Tesla-fied," and having problems in the process. It was Tesla who pioneered the idea of "over the air" electronic updates in cars. Assuming the updates always worked properly--which is a question--it could be a good way of continuously improving one's car without needing to buy a new model. But all the OTA updates in the world are no good if they drain the battery in the process, and that's the problem with this truck. If we accept the premise that OTA updates are here to stay, it gives rise to the question of whether the timing of the updates could be changed so they don't drain the vehicle's battery. I should hope there's a setting somewhere in the vehicle's online menus, alongside those for the infotainment functions, that can address this issue. If there isn't that kind of setting now, then GM should put it in. Given the alternative, I doubt very many drivers would complain if downloading OTA updates could be limited to when the engine is running, so the updates don't strain the electrical system and drain the battery. Your move, GM...and you'd better move fast. These Duramax trucks are a big part of what pays the bills for GM these days.
Give me back FULL manual control of EVERYTHING, and I might one day buy a new truck, but with all the garbage features on today's trucks(and cars), they are pretty much just fancy paperweights waiting for the opportune moment to ruin your day. No push button start, no fly by wire throttle body, no electric powersteering, no electric parking brake, and CERTAINLY NO OVER THE AIR SOFTWARE UPDATES! My 93 civic will move more tools and materials to and from jobs than most trucks built after 2007 ever will before they ends up in the scrap yard!
What if it was just a bad battery ?? Yikes.
I don't think his problems are over! It's hard for me to understand how GM engineers didn't anticipate these software issues. All I can figure is these younger guys are really car guys. They didn't grow up living and breathing cars. So they can anticipate enough scenarios.
they should be recalling them
Recalls are only for safety issues.
There is a recall for this particular problem. A update from GM has caused the onboard computer to remain on thus creating a constant draw which in turn is killing the battery. Dealers will reprogram the computer fixing the problem. My 23' Silverado has the same recall issued. Have to take mine in at some point before ending up like this.
So the over the air software updates messes up the vehicles ECU and drains the battery down.
Simply jumping the vehicle off and getting it started and able to drive still leaves a corrupt ECU on board.
Correct?
So the software will need further update by the dealer, manufacture to correct the problem to fix the ECU?
Is that it?
You're towing a guy's truck because it has a dead battery. Brilliant!
Guess you didn’t hear him say that this is a known recurring issue after remote software update that messes with the computer causing truck to die!!
@@andrekrapcha938 Guess you didn't see my channel name. I did. I own a 2016 LML and just replaced BOTH batteries this year. I got a good run on them. The point I was making was if it were my truck, warranty or no warranty, I would have jump started it myself and drove it to the dealer. That's just me. But I whole heartedly feel bad for all the suckers who sunk a boat load of money into these new pickups. There is no way I'm getting rid of mine. I'd never ever be able to replace it!
Naw they don't make they like before they were better I have a Silverado with almost 300,000 miles and still doing great
From what I heard Duramax diesel Alison transmission used to be good but GM fully owns both companies now.
I had a '24 Silverado 1500 with this problem and it sucked having to drag it on skates up the bed.
My opinion is that this is being done on purpose to stop you from buying gas vehicles and start buying electric vehicles. Think about that for a minute again. that's just my opinion
Since it was running, I'd have driven it on the truck. Owner should have boosted the battery and driven it to the dealership.
Why tf are our vehicles doing software updates!? Are my phone updates with terms and conditions not enough. I bought a new 2020 silverado 2500 with the 6.6 gas. This was my first new truck. It has had many issues, the biggest one being oil consumption. Currently I have 50,000 miles and it uses about 1 quart every 1000 miles. I also have a 7.3 with 420,000 miles that uses about the same amount. I'm not impressed.
another fine product from GM
I didn't even know the duramax engines had the same problem as the gas engines.
Correction! I just watched a little bit more of the video, and It doesn't have the same fuel pump problem as the gas ones. but they seem to have update/battery problems instead. My lord gm! Too much computer crap on these trucks. 🤣👍
you just need a car thief to come by they would steal it somehow LOL even if it can't run, they would find a way to get it running.
These trucks have tons of issues. I’ve had 2 of them 22 and 23 and both had mechanical and electrical issues.
It's absolutly unsane to spend 100K on a pick-up truck.
Near $100,000 and an update failure. What happened to GM? I'm really starting to miss my past trucks. My '11 SD Ford diesel and one of the first built with a 6.7 had some JOB 1 "birthing" problems but other then a new DEF heater replaced under warranty at 124,790 miles, had zero issues. My '06 350 V10 at 138K had even fewer (ZERO). The winner was the '79 F350 w/460 at 200K but that one rusted - badly - in the USA rust belt but was bullet proof otherwise.
thats the whole point of having a factory warranty, better than having to pay out of your pocket
any production product can fail, to think it cant, wont or shouldnt is living in a fantasy world.....they only make stuff people want and ask for....they certainly cant sell what the masses wont buy
every product gets more sophisticated with technology, if you want something new without it than you buy base versions.......they still make a base WT if thats your wish, but funny how base truck videos get almost no views while the higher trims get all the views.....if you could you would, if you cant you justify why you wouldnt even if you could........everyone wants them just cant afford them
Beautiful truck, am sure theyll fix it and he will be up and rolling again in no time.....too much $$ for me but these were never built to accomodate the everyday person....its a luxury truck for those who can afford it, nothing more or less
I towed a 21 gmc and left it running while I was towing it, same deal with the battery
Wow another new truck 😮
I bet the battery is dead and they didn't check battery voltage, my ram 1500 did the same thing, clicking of starter changed batteries fixed
Slow Battery drain , possibly security system not shutting down.
He didn't contact GM OnStar First???? They can scan the ride...And instructions to get it started...
If it doesn’t have power, what are they gunna do? They’re gunna send a tow truck. Which is why I was there.
@Towtruck_Dustin Recall for this issue with OTA updates draining battery... Trying to do it over and over at night... They need to go to dealer for Hard Update at dealer for from 30 minutes to several hours or a day
Freewheeling a truck that heavy up your ramp with which cable is super dangerous.Cables snap.Look at the death of a pedestrian in San Francisco from that same scenario.You had the truck running drive up ramp….. jump it again at shop… much safer
Wrong. It’s way more hazardous to drive a vehicle up the bed that’s obviously having issues.
Oops black with silver coves and a custom red leather interior!!!
how did you walk the truck forward? did you use the stinger?
I've seen where batteries are only covered under the 12 months 12k miles.
GOOD MORNING!
I wonder about a couple of things is Towing regulated in Texas? Also wondering how you are paid, hourly, salary or percentage of tow🤔
Towing is regulated in Texas.
I’m paid by commission, although it varies from company to company.
I think it will start Dustin
Junk electronics from china causes most the issues.
Imagine having 2 gigantic tow hooks on the front of your truck but theyre so pretty that the driver still has to go underneath the truck to hook onto it. Make it make sense people
The tow hooks aren’t for loading on a flatbed. They’re for off-road recovery.
Hook that far forward and try to load it. The back tires probably wouldn’t even make it on the bed.
I get asked that a lot and I’m not sure why because it seems fairly obvious when you think about it.
@@Towtruck_Dustin so they're good enough out in the snow or mud? Or to help get someone else unstuck? Just seems strange to have something called "tow hooks" but aren't used for towing? Btw I wasn't blaming you, im saying it seems stupid from manufacturers
The great work Mike .
Yes
I think there's a transmission problem in those trucks especially 2500 and 3500.
based on needing to run a car 15 minutes to charge it after starting it might not start on that short bit of running you did
One of my neighbours has a truck identical to this one. He had to jump his a few times, probably why.
Wow over 90k for these trucks nowadays and there having stupid problems like this. 😒
Watching Dustin makes me want to buy a Toyota only.
Toyotas have their share of issues too. Especially right now.
I'm guessing it will be dead again.
I think it's going to start
It'll start
I dont want a vehicle that needs updates wtf. I got a 2017 silverado and that will be the last new vehicle i own, already replaced the AFM lifters and cam with a dod delete, these new trucks are JUNK!
What is the jump pack you use? I would like to get one for my personal vehicle.
He has it listed in the descriptions
@@davidthurston4241 I appreciate it. Didn't even think to look haha
That’s the Lokithor J3250
Need to change the channel name to "Proof of declining car quality".
There’s a recall for this
Yup I have what I have
Too much electronics in vehicles. Vehicles may have a durability of 25+ years (as in "classic cars"). But the electronics may have a ten year life span. So you junk a good vehicle because electronic parts are not available. Engineers have dumped a curse on American vehicle buyers. Electronics in vehicles are still in the unreliable stage and are extremely expensive to repair.
yea and its a recall just for that
Interior ain’t worth what they cost
