Weird OTA update this morning
Go to work and car said update ready, will take 11 minutes etc...
Put the car in 1. Put on ebrake. Turned off car. Hit update. When I got out the stereo was still playing and the screan went back to the normal icons. The car was definetely off. So I got back in started up the car pulled forwards then backed back in to my spot. Turned off the car and all appeared normal but the update did not run. So i went into setting and it said up to date. Weird

Completely normal when an update is needed. Radio will shut off in a couple minutes on its own if update is not completed. Once update completes radio will go back to normal operation and shut off when you open the door. Has happened to me 3 time in 9 months. Usually takes my car 3/4 times before it will finish the update.

Thank you for responding, good to know for sure. I have gotten no update messages at all, car is 5 months old and have driven 4500 miles. I quess this may be side benefit of a no option LT1 other than the 10 speed auto.

onstar activation only matters for you personally using the onstar service. It's always connected to the cell network whether you pay for it or not and GM can push updates and/or get data from your car whenever it wants. Whether you have an active subscription or not.
Only way to stop that is taking the cell radio out of the onstar bcm. |

To my knowledge, there has been only one update that would apply to my car that was released this year and it was installed recently (by me). |

I have a 2017 2 ss car with the bose upgrade system and to my knowledge never have received an update.
Does this sound correct? Thanks. |

I had to reconnect my car to the home wifi, though nothing has changed with that. It started "updating," and I ended up with a few more apps I will never use. Nothing in the system update area. I'll make sure it stays connected to wifi in case anything gets pushed. But I am out of town for 2 weeks. |

I believe it was the 2019s, or whenever they released the upgraded Infotainment system with the higher rez screen, that the ability to update the software in the radio was available.
