The 2022 GMC Sierra HD and fully refreshed 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 once again offering heated and ventilated seats, GM Authority has learned.
According to GM Authority sources, all new units of the 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 that would normally be equipped with Heated front seats (RPO code KA1), Ventilated front seats (RPO code KQV) and Heated outboard rear seats (KA6) will once again be equipped with those features, as of April 24th production. What’s more, all new units of the 2022 GMC Sierra HD that would normally be equipped with Heated front seats and ventilated front seats will once again be equipped with those features, also as of April 24th production.
All of these features were previously under constraint since March 14th production for both the refreshed 2022 GMC Sierra and the 2022 GMC Sierra HD.
For refreshed 2022 GMC Sierra 1500 models, Heated front seats are normally equipped as standard on all trim levels with the exception of the base-level Pro, while Ventilated front seats and Heated outboard seats are normally offered as optional for the SLT trim, and equipped as standard for AT4, AT4X, Denali, and Denali Ultimate trim levels. Ventilated front seats and Heated outboard seats are not offered for GMC Sierra 1500 Pro, SLE, or Elevation trim levels.
To note, the 2022 GMC Sierra AT4X, Denali, and Denali Ultimate trim levels were all unaffected by constraints for the Heated front seats and Ventilated front seats, while AT4X and Denali Ultimate were unaffected by constraints for the Heated outboard rear seats.
With regard to units of the 2022 GMC Sierra HD, Heated front seats are normally offered as optional for SLE trim levels, and equipped as standard for SLT, AT4, and Denali trim levels, while the feature is not available for the base-level Pro trim. Additionally, Ventilated front seats are normally offered as optional for SLT trim levels, and equipped as standard for AT4 and Denali. Pro and SLE trim levels do not offer Ventilated front seats.
The 2022 GMC Sierra HD Denali was unaffected by constraints for the Heated front seats and Ventilated front seats.
Finally, Heated outboard rear seats (RPO code KA6) are still under constraint for GMC Sierra HD models, as is the Ventilated seat cushion blower motor. With regard to this latter component, the ventilated seat function will be inoperable for models affected by this constraint, even when equipped with the Ventilated seat module. Additionally, Front and Rear Park Assist (RPO code UD5) is also still under constraint.

Is there hope we can get the bug reflector. Been waiting for months
How about its sidekick, the Chevy Silverado? Has this constraint been lifted on the Silverado High Country too?
How about getting the heated and ventilated seats and steering wheel options in the trucks you sold five months ago?????
2022 Sierra AT4 still waiting.
YEP ! Iam in the same boat ! Seats ,steering wheel and no bumper sensors that work!
I just ordered a Denali, hope I get those.
Great news
Ordered my Sierra Denali beginning of Jan, still don’t know when they are going to build it . It may be a left over by the time I get it.
how long after your build is accepted will they start the build
I’m still waiting for the chips for my heated seats and steering wheel. It’s been one year since I took delivery and was told they would have been installed last spring early summer. Paying finance charges for feature that I don’t have. Thinking about lemon law and legal council
Just got my heated seats last week. the steering wheel is on not available yet. January the GM rep promised me.
I got my heated seats last week. The rep from GM promised me I would have the heated wheel sometime in January.
Went to my dealer to have heated seats chip installed after waiting one year. I waited 3 hours at dealership to be told they couldn’t program the chip to my Sierra. Supposedly they will contact GM to find out why it couldn’t be programmed. That’s 1 week ago. Don’t think I would recommend GM ever. HELP GM Rep where are you?
How does the vent seat work ork had fans lnstailed last week no air coming throw the seat is it suck air or does it blowing air
i guess we are waiting with ever one else missing front and rear parking assist as well as ventilated front seat cushion it been a long time since May when I received my truck. I was told it would be refitted in the fourth quarter of 2022. another lie, 2022 has come and gone. what’s next.? more lies.i did get heated steering wheel. 4 wheels and a motor
I’ve had my 2022 Sierra now one and a half years and still waiting for my heated steering wheel. I know another guy who bought his Sierra 5 months after me and he had his seats and steering wheel already installed. GM is a joke. Why do the new tricks come through with these extras and the people who ordered previously still have to wait? I’m paying for a finance charge for something promised that I don’t have. We should get together as a group and go to the news and an attorney.
Finally got heated seats after 1.5 years still waiting for heated steering wheel. It will be 2 years in December. Dealer still insist nothing yet. People have received chips buying their Sierra 6 months after I did. Y r new owners getting their options but GM doesn’t take care of customers who already paid for these options. They suck
