According to the manual, RAP (Retained Accessory Power) is maintained after shutting the car off for either a specific duration of time or until the driver's door is opened.

I have found that my 20 2SS will keep the radio powered on even after I have opened the driver's door, exited the vehicle, closed the door, and locked it.

Thoughts? I'm concerned that the car is allowing items to remain powered for FAR too long after it is shut off, and this is definitely NOT how my Silverado works...

Bump. Anyone able to share any light on this?

I’ve never had that same issue but I have had something that sounds similar. Sometimes when I exit the vehicle and it locks I can see the little red light stay on the power door lock buttons. The electrical on these cars is strange imo. But you having a brand new car I’d take it to the dealer and tell them what you are telling us.

I will reach out to the selling dealership about it to see if they might be able to have a technician comment on the details. I can't drive the car at the moment, so it's the best option I have for probably at least a couple of more weeks.

With regard to the lights on the door locks, I personally wouldn't be too concerned about that specific item as those lights are basically super low-power LED's and I couldn't imagine them drawing any more power than the common red flashing LED that many cars have showing that it's locked.

Just out of curiosity, does it do it all the time? When it is doing it is the orange light on the start button still lit? Like being in the ACC position.

No...sorry. I don't listen to RAP.

I have looked specifically to see if that were the case, and there does not appear to be any sort of illumination of the Start button.

Enter car, start it, back it out of the garage. During all of this, the radio comes on. Turn car off, open door, close door, LOCK door... radio continues playing.

I travel a lot for work (normally) and have driven my fair share of push-button start vehicles (quite a few from GM, as well - all 2018 or newer). I've never experienced anything like this on ANY vehicle where the radio continues playing even after the door has been locked!

That's it... I'm throwing something heavy at you for that one...

Had the same issue develop after about 400 miles on it.

Figured it out by going into the infotainment screen and updating the software.

Should be easy for you to do, but if not, let me know and I can retrace my steps for you.

Do you have passive locking set to on? Check that setting then when you close the door don’t manually lock it, let the car lock itself and see what happens. You’ll have to take the remote out with you.

Are you referring to the Delayed Lock feature? If so, yes, I have that enabled. But, how are you suggesting I factor that in? The way that feature works is that you have to press the Lock button on the inside of the door before you close it and then the vehicle locks 20 seconds after the last door is closed.

What might I hope to see differently by leveraging that method of locking the door?

From what I can tell, there appear to be no software updates shown as pending and I don't know how to force it to check. Does this process require that you have the vehicle connected to a WiFi network at your house? If so, that's never going to happen. The privacy disclosures that are required for that say that GM is allowed to collect ALL KINDS of information about you including basically everything on the so-called black box for usage data. That information goes nowhere without a court order.
