Is Your GMC Sierra 1500 (2022.5+ Refresh) Infotainment System Failing?

The 2022.5–2026 GMC Sierra 1500 (2022.5+ Refresh) is built on GM’s T1 Refresh platform. While it’s a capable pickup truck, the infotainment system — powered by the Global B CSM — is a known failure point. These modules process every interaction with your touchscreen, navigation, backup camera, Bluetooth, and connected phone services. When the module fails, you lose access to all of it.

If your GMC Sierra 1500 (2022.5+ Refresh) is showing any of the symptoms below, you’re almost certainly dealing with a failing infotainment module — not a fuse issue, not a software glitch, and not something a dealer software update will fix permanently.

WAMS vs. Dealership Replacement

Most GM dealers will charge $800 to $1,500+ for a module replacement — and that’s before the labor charge for programming. You’ll also wait for the part to arrive, schedule an appointment, and leave your GMC Sierra 1500 (2022.5+ Refresh) at the dealer for hours or days. With WAMS, the module arrives pre-programmed and ready to install yourself. No appointment, no labor charge, no waiting.

WAMS vs. Salvage / Remanufactured Modules

Salvage modules pulled from wrecked vehicles are cheap for a reason — they carry the previous vehicle’s programming, may have hidden damage, and often fail again within months. Remanufactured modules are only marginally better. WAMS uses exclusively brand-new GM hardware with a full factory warranty. Every module is programmed fresh to your VIN.

Available Upgrades for Your GMC Sierra 1500 (2022.5+ Refresh)
