2016 CHEVROLET COLORADO Complaints

WHEN TURNING OFF THE TRUCK, A LOT OF TIMES MY KEY WONT SWITCH ALL THE WAY OFF AND WONT RELEASE. THE ENGINE TURNS OFF AND TURNS BACK ON FINE BUT WONT RELEASE THE KEY. IT SEAMS TO DO IT ALMOST EVERY TIME I GO TO TURN OFF THE TRUCK AND IN ORDER TO GET MY KEY OUT I HAVE TO TURN THE TRUCK BACK ON AND PUT IT IM DRIVE THEN BACK TO PARK MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE FORUMS THAT PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM. OUR LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER WONT COVER THIS FIX SINCE MY TRUCK IS NOW OUT OF THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 CHEVROLET COLORADO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 TO 45 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS FIRM. THE CONTACT MADE A TURN AND THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP INDEPENDENTLY. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITH CODE P0017 (CAMSHAFT POSITION). THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT PIECES OF METAL DETACHED FROM THE VACUUM PUMP INTO THE ENGINE, WHICH DAMAGED THE DRIVER SIDE CAMSHAFT, THE VACUUM PUMP, CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR AND THE DRIVER SIDE CAMSHAFT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE CAMSHAFT SOLENOID DUE TO METAL ON THE SCREEN AND METAL WAS ALSO IN THE OIL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE REMAINED AT THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED MARTIN CHEVROLET (23505 HAWTHORNE BLVD, TORRANCE, CA 90505), AND INFORMED THE DEALER OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 130,000.

SKID MARKS ICON CAME ON AND A WARNING ABOUT THE POWER STEERING TO BE CAUTIOUS AND A HIGHLIGHTED WORD DISMISS. THEN THE POWER STEERING IS GONE AND I STOPPED AT THE RED LIGHT TURN IT OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON IT FIXED IT. I WAS ON THE FREEWAY 17 NORTH BOUND JUST IN TIME FOR ME TO EXIT AND THAT'S WHEN I DID THE TURN OFF ACTION.

I PUT LARGER TIRES ON MY COLORADO. THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER SAYS THEY CANNOT CORRECT THE SPEEDOMETER READING. I AM TOLD I CAN BUY THE NECESSARY SOFTWARE FROM GM, BUT I CAN'T FIND IT, NOR CAN ANYONE AT THE DEALERSHIP TELL ME HOW TO OBTAIN IT. UNTIL NOW, IT WAS POSSIBLE TO GET THE SPEEDOMETER CORRECTED. SO, I DON'T KNOW HOW FAST I AM GOING.

VEHICLE SHUDDERS DOES NOT DOWNSHIFT SMOOTHLY JERKS WHEN BACKING UP AT TIMES, VEHICLE JUMPS WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT TO A LOWER GEAR. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP, COULDN'T GET THE PROBLEM TO OCCUR, SO NOTHING THEY CAN DO AND DON'T CARE TO, VEHICLE HAS 36,000 MILES

THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM I AM GOING TO DESCRIBE. WHAT OCCURRED TODAY WAS A LOSS OF POWER STEERING WHILE TAKING A RIGHT TURN OFF OF A SIDE STREET ONTO A CROSS STREET INTO TRAFFIC. IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE THE TURN, AND CAUSED A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE I ALMOST CROSSED THE LANE INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. UPON STRAIGHTENING THE VEHICLE OUT I NOTICED A ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL WARNING MESSAGE, THEN AS I CONTINUED TO DRIVE TO LOOK FOR A SAFE PLACE TO STOP, A NO POWER STEERING MESSAGE CAME ON STATING TO DRIVE SAFELY OR SOMETHING TO THAT EFFECT. AFTER I FOUND A LOCATION TO PARK, I REPEATEDLY TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON IN HOPES OF RE-SETTING THE SYSTEMS. THIS DID NOT HAVE ANY AFFECT ON THE FAULTS AND THE MESSAGES REMAINED. I ALSO NOTICED WHEN I REVERSED THE VEHICLE , THE BACK UP SCREEN GAVE ME A MESSAGE THAT THERE ARE NO PROJECTION LINES. I SLOWLY DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME THE REST OF THE WAY WHILE "MUSCLING" IT AROUND TURNS. APPROXIMATELY THIRTY MINUTES AFTER I HAD ARRIVED HOME, I RESTARTED MY VEHICLE AND ALL SYSTEMS WORKED CORRECTLY WITH NO WARNING MESSAGES DISPLAYED. I HAD MENTIONED THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED, THE FIRST TIME WAS ABOUT THREE MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. I THOUGHT THAT I HAD ACCIDENTALLY TURNED THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL OFF OR SOMETHING. THIS INSTANCE THE VEHICLE RESET AFTER I TURNED IT OFF AND RESTARTED IT. TO NOTE IS THIS VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY WELL MAINTAINED AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITION.

CONSTANT CODE P1427 SHOWS VACUME LEAK, CAN'T BE FOUND 2) THE DASH GO COMPLETELY DARK ON AND OFF, BOTH THE ODOMETER SIDE AND THE DIGITAL PANEL FOR RADIO ETC
