Question for the gurus here…
Is there a way to disable the lower active grill shutter that throws a CEL on the 2024’s?

I don’t have an aftermarket bumper but I’ve been seeing more and more and assume many of them cannot retain this active grill shutter… anyway, I have a code U0285 for “lost communication with active grille air shutter actuator 2”

I assume this should be a warranty issue and covered however the local dealer I called to schedule a drop off said it would be upwards of $900 to diagnose!

Appreciate any insight!

Indeed, the lower grill is not functioning at all unfortunately. I’ve cleared the code with a scan tool and it comes back after an ignition cycle.

Try checking the connector, drop the skid and follow back from the shutters

Connector and pins look good… no wires appear to have been pinched and definitely not cut.

Leaning toward the motor/module itself. I booked a drop off appointment for 12/23 online at my local dealer, hoping they take the truck and cover everything as they should!
