2023 Colorado's First OTA Update

I purchased my Traill Boss in August of 2023, and since then I have never received an OTA update. I started making it a habit to schedule a service appointment once a year just so the software can be checked and updated as needed. This was the only way I could get everything up-to-date. I know others in this forum have had the same experience as me with their 2023's, so hopefully this will provide some hope for you all.

I thought my truck was cursed and not worthy of updates, but yesterday after pulling into my garage it notified me update "N25-165AN" was ready to be installed. I was honestly excited (the curse has been lifted!!), but quickly disappointed when I returned to the vehicle 20min later just to find out the update failed. Ugh... I'll try again tomorrow and also scheduled a service appointment so they can update any software.

Like others have mentioned in other threads, maybe the power cube needed more juice. So I plugged in my Noco 5A charger and let it charge for a few hours. I tried again later this afternoon and it completed successfully!

I have seen other threads where others mentioned they have received update N25- F17???, so I assume more are on their way?? Probably not though, and I am still going to follow through with my service appointment anyways.

Charging the battery fixed the update failure

We're getting N242452130 now, the OTA injector reprogramming update.
I got that one done at the dealer last month, they started to text me about it the month before. According to them, it was a recall, not an update, if that really makes a difference.
Still have not turned on updates and I know my battery is lower thatn their threshold.. no ota for me

My '23 was in to the dealer about 2 weeks ago for the module recall. It took 4-5 days to reflect that the recall had been performed, making me think it hadn't been. I have not seen an OTA software update, but maybe eventually? I have the system set to auto, but when I check it tells me that there is nothing available.

Not exactly what you asked, but I have both turned on and have NOT gotten an update.

Now, I have an auto stop-start defeater installed. I read somewhere on here that because of the way it operates (I thought I read it sends a low voltage signel to the ECU so the stop/start feature stays off?) it won't allow the system to install an update, thinking the battery won't handle it. I removed it last night and I'm going to give it a few days to see what happens.
