2013 GMC Sierra Service and Repair Manual
This factory service and repair manual for the 2013 GMC Sierra lists three trims, Denali, SLE and SLT, across a four-door crew cab pickup and a two-door standard cab. Engine choice comes down to the 325-cubic-inch 5.3L V8 or the 376-cubic-inch 6.2L V8, both overhead-valve, naturally aspirated and set up for flex fuel.

Known issues on the 2013 Sierra. Three recalls are recorded federally. A pair of them cover the front passenger inflator module, which may explode during deployment and propel sharp metal fragments at occupants. The remaining one concerns fire extinguishers that can clog and fail to discharge. On the complaint side, 167 reports are logged, 44 of them on the air bags, 20 on the structure and 11 on the electrical system. That combination puts restraint-system diagnostics, body and cab hardware, and interior wiring at the front of the queue in this manual.
