I just bought my xlt last week and had a similar issue at about 200 miles. When my shifter is in "D" I have to tap it up and the gear display comes back on. Not sure if yours is doing this but its worth a shot to avoid a trip to the dealer.

Maybe. To me it seems like the shifter needs to actually hit the switch. I'm am far from up to speed on these trucks so maybe that is a part of the software update my truck was built 10/11.

My verticle gear indicator disappeared from my gauge cluster. I have a 2011 xlt sc 4x4 /5.0/3.73. Until this happened today,there have been no problems with this truck. 4745 mi. on it. Help please,I'm not due to go to the dealer until oil change time. Thanks!
bottom gear indicator still works and if I go to manual mode,the side[verticle] indicator shows what gear I'm in.
