2016 CHEVROLET COLORADO Complaints

THE VEHICLE WAS ON A STREET STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT WITH THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON AND IN DRIVE. THE VEHICLE RADIO AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM POWERED OFF AND RESET WITHOUT KNOWN CAUSE AND THE VEHICLE ENGINE AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHUT DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED BY PLACING THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND USING THE KEY TO START NORMALLY.

THE DOORS ON THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE COME TO A SHARP POINT ON THE BOTTOM. THE WIND CASE THE DOOR TO COME BACK ON MY LEG AND BADLY BRUISING MY LEG. I CONTACTED GM TO PAY MY DOCTOR BILL BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED A REPLY.

TIRES MAKING A LOUD NOISE SINCE THE 20,000 MILE MARK, VIBRATION AS WELL, CURRENTLY 28,686 MILES, SCALLOPED TIRES? SO LOUD ON HIGHT WAY CAN'T HEAR RADIO, NOISE IS BOTHERSOOM, QUESTION ANY RECALLS

REAR DIFFERENTIAL MAKING LOUD POPING NOICES WHEN ENGAGED. SOUNDS LIKE METALLIC METAL TO METAL CATCHING AND GRINDING. SPECIALLY WHEN SWITCHING FROM BACKING UP TO DRIVING FORWARDS AGAIN. IS COULD RESULT IN THE DIFFERENTIAL LOCKING UP.

THE SPECIFIC PROBLEM IS VISIBILITY OUT THE WINDSHIELD EITHER BECAUSE OF HOW THE WINDSHIELD IS SHAPED OR BECAUSE OF THE POSITION OF THE WEST VIRGINIA INSPECTION STICKER PLACEMENT IN THE LOWER RIGHT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD. MY WIFE IS 5'3" AND I'M 5'8" TALL AND THE INSPECTION STICKER CLEARLY CREATES A VISUAL SAFETY ISSUE. I CONTACTED WV DMV ABOUT HIS SAFETY ISSUE AND THEY REFERRED ME TO THE WV STATE POLICE. THE STATE POLICE SAY THE STATE LAW REQUIRES THE INSPECTION STICKER BE PLACE IN THE LOWER LEFT OF THE WINDSHIELD. I CONTACTED OUR STATE SENATOR AND HAVE NOT HEARD BACK. THE LAW SHOULD BE CHANGED. THE WAY CHEVROLET DESIGN AND MANUFACTURED THE WINDSHIELD DOES MAKE WHERE THE INSPECTION STICKER IS PLACE BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE. IF ANY STICKERS OF SUCH SIZE ARE PLACED ON THE LOWER LEFT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD, THEY BECOME AN ISSUE. I DON'T KNOW THE BEST WAY TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE; HOWEVER, WILLFUL IGNORANCE OR NEGLECT IS WRONG. SAFETY MUST COME FIRST. I THINK THE WV STATE LAW IS OBSOLETE FOR NEW VEHICLES WITH WINDSHIELDS OF THIS SHAPE. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO HELP US, PLEASE REFER US TO SOMEONE THAN CAN. THANKS

TRANSMISSION HAS A "STUTTER" TO IT. UPSHIFTS HAVE A 'STUTTER" OR LAG TO THEM AT LOW RPM. VERY DANGEROUS DRIVING AROUND TOWN WHEN YOU HAVE STOP AND GO TRAFFIC. DOWNSHIFTS AUTOMATICALLY GOING DOWN A STEEP GRADE ,THE DOWNSHIFT IS SO BAD IT WANTS TO THROW YOU THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD.HAVE HAD TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP AT LEAST 3 X. TRUCK IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IN TRAFFIC AS THIS TRANSMISSION IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. HAVE CONTACTED GM IN DEC. OF 2017 BUT GOT NO REPLY (IMAGINE THAT). TRUCK HAS ABOUT 18,500 MILES ON IT BOUGHT IN DEC. OF 2016. HIGHWAY DRIVING IS FINE, DRIVING AROUND TOWN IS TERRIBLE AS I SAID TRANSMISSION "BUCKS" OR "STUTTERS". FOR THE TIME BEING TRUCK WILL SIT AND WILL NOT BE DRIVEN EXCEPT TO THE DEALER.

ONGOING PROBLEM WITH DIESEL FUEL LEAK WHICH BEGAN IN OCTOBER 2017. WILL BE RETURNING TO THE DEALER ON 27 MARCH 2018 FOR CAUSE SEARCH OF THE PROBLEM AND REPAIR. DEALER CONFIRMED ONE OF THE DIESEL FUEL LEAKS DURING NOVEMBER 2017 WAS A LEAK AT THE FUEL PUMP AND A LOOSE FUEL LINE. PROBLEM HAS RETURNED AFTER 3900 MILES OF USE. DIESEL FUMES PERMEATE THE CABIN AND DIESEL FUEL COVERS THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE TRUCK FROM THE FRONT WHEEL WELL ALONG THE BODY TO THE REAR LEFT BUMPER. HAVE CONTACTED CHEVROLET CORPORATE DURING NOVEMBER 2017 TO MAKE THEM AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND CREATE A FORMAL CASE REPORT. HAVE STARTED ANOTHER CASE REPORT WITH CHEVROLET AS OF FRIDAY (23 MARCH 2018) TO SEEK A PERMANENT AND DURABLE RESOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM.

WAS AT SHOP RETURNING TRUCK TO INSTALL ORDERED ELECTRICAL PARTS ON 3/13/18, WHEN THE INSTALLER CALLED ME OVER TO SHOW ME AN EXTREMELY LARGE GASH IN TIRE TREAD, COMPLETE WIDTH OF MIDDLE TREAD AND ABOUT 7 INCHES IN LENGTH. (HAVE PHOTO)LEAVING THE MEMBRANE EXPOSED. I WAS THERE ON FRIDAY 3/9/18 WITH INITIAL REPAIRS & THIS WAS NOT NOTED! ( TIRES WERE BALANCE DUE TO OUTAGE OF WIRE FOR ABS) I DROVE BACK HOME 50 MILES ON FRIDAY, DID NOT MOVE THE TRUCK ALL WEEKEND, TILL MY RETURN ON TUESDAY (13TH). WHEN DISCOVERED . HE ADVISED ME TO GET THIS REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY! I DROVE CAUTIOUSLY APPROX. 4 MILES TO LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP (RELIABLE) IT WAS AROUND 4PM, I EXPLAINED THAT I DID NOT HAVE APPOINTMENT, AND NEEDED IMMEDIATE ATTENTION DUE TO DAMAGED TIRE READY TO BLOW OUT! I EXPLAIN THIS LOOKED LIKE MANUFACTURE DEFECT. NEEDLESS TO SAY NONE WAS COVERED BY INSURANCE, I PAID OUT OF POCKET $274.24. I AM SO THANKFUL I DID NOT HAVE A BLOW OUT DRIVING TO ALBUQUERQUE,NM THIS IS HIGHWAY MOST OF THE WAY, WITH SPEED LIMIT 70 MPH. AND MOST GRATEFUL MY 3 GRANDKIDS WERE NOT WITH ME,, AS I FREQUENTLY PICK THEM UP FROM SCHOOL. THIS COULD OF DEFINITELY BEEN DEVASTATING . THE SERVICE DEPT. ASSUMED I RAN OVER SOMETHING. THIS IS A NEWER TRUCK I ONLY HAVE 9688 MILES ON IT, AND CAREFUL TO WATCH WHAT IS ON THE ROADS. AS THIS WAS THE DRIVER REAR TIRE INVOLVED, THE FRONT WAS NOT AFFECTED AT ALL? IS THIS POSSIBLE IT IS A MANUFACTURED DEFECT ? I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS HAPPEN TO A TIRE ON MY VEHICLES BEFORE, AS I AM 65 YRS OLD. DO I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THIS TO HAPPEN TO ANOTHER TIRE ON THIS VEHICLE FROM THIS COMPANY WITH POSSIBLE TRAGIC RESULTS. I WILL DO MY DILIGENCE IN INSPECTING TIRES BEFORE I LEAVE, BUT THIS COULD OF HAPPEN AS I DRIVE TRAVELING ONCE AGAIN ON HIGHWAYS. *TR

COMING OFF STEEP HILL AND TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED TO LOW GEAR, THE ENGINE REVVED UP AND WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT. TRIED GIVING AND LETTING OFF GAS, FINALLY PUT IT IN NEUTRAL TO LET RPM'S GO DOWN AND PUT BACK IN DRIVE AND IT FINALLY SHIFTED ON OUT. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED AND THEY TEST DROVE IT AND SAID THE HILL DESCENT FUNCTION WAS NOT WORKING PROPERLY BUT THERE WERE NO RECALLS OR SOFTWARE UPDATE ISSUE AT THIS TIME THAT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. ISSUED COMPLAINT TO CHEVROLET AND THEY SAID THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH COMPLAINTS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AT THIS TIME. VERY FRUSTRATED.
