TOOLS FOR YOUR MOBILE OFFICE.
Sierra HD’s offer an array of tools to help you stay in control and put in a confident day’s work.
Inside, they reflect the professional grade blend of refinement and functionality for which GMC

F E AT U R E W H AT I T D O E S
StabiliTrak® Electronic Stability Control (all Uses a combination of braking and engine management to help improve vehicle
2500HD and single-rear-wheel 3500HD models) stability, particularly during emergency maneuvers.
Hill Start Assist Uses vehicle and trailer brakes to keep Sierra HD and/or a trailer from rolling
(on all single-rear-wheel configurations) backward when launching on an incline. The brakes apply for approximately 1.5
seconds to allow the driver to move foot from brake pedal to accelerator pedal
without any vehicle movement.
Trailer Sway Control Works with StabiliTrak to determine if the trailer is swaying and applies the
(on all single-rear-wheel configurations) brakes/trailer brakes. It also can reduce engine power to bring both the vehicle
and trailer under control.
Four-wheel ABS with larger, four-wheel disc Intelligent Brake Assist senses an urgent braking situation via the driver’s
foundation brakes and Intelligent Brake Assist application of the brake pedal then applies full braking capability without full
travel of the brake pedal.
OnStar® with six months of Offers the convenience of hands-free calling and includes Automatic Crash
Directions & Connections Plan Response, Stolen Vehicle Assistance, Emergency Services, Roadside Assistance,
standard on most models.1 Remote Horn and Lights and more.
XM® Radio2 Commercial-free music channels from virtually every genre, live performances,
(with 3-month trial) sports, entertainment, compelling talk, world news, local traffic and more – all in
crisp, clear digital sound.
USB connectivity3 Personalize your driving experience – the USB port recharges your iPod®/MP3
player while it plays audio from the device through the sound system.
Bluetooth® for phone4 Provides in-vehicle, hands-free operation with a Bluetooth-equipped cell phone.
Steering-wheel-mounted controls let you start a call and control volume, then dial
by voice and listen to your call through the audio system.
“Smart” Exhaust Brake Helps reduce brake fade while prolonging brake life. Provides confidence when
(standard on Duramax®-equipped models) hauling heavy loads on downhill grades. This system is “smart” and varies the
amount of braking needed based on the truck load and grade.
Available WiFi (via dealer-installed Autonet Mobile)5 Connect to the Internet inside your Sierra HD.
Available integrated trailer brake controller Dash-mounted controls provide a measured brake force signal to
electric-controlled trailer brakes.
Available seat pelvic/thorax and head curtain Protection in the event of a collision.
