POWER TRAIN
A transmission shudder has developed. It seems to be a known issue that Chevrolet has tried to resolve, but it is present in my vehicle. It started to develop around 60,000 miles ago and has progressively gotten worse.

SERVICE BRAKES
Operator reported that under braking, they lost all power assist to the brake pedal and brake pedal was extremely hard to push. This resulted in extended stopping distance and difficulty slowing the vehicle down. It was found that the vacuum pump had failed. We are a large utility fleet, and this issue has occurred a number of times to our Chevrolet Colorado/GMC Canyon vehicles and we deem this a safety issue. These incidents have been reported to the OEM and we recently received the attached reply, "We submitted a “Speak up for Safety Campaign” to our internal quality team for review. These reviews are conducted to determine if there is a manufacturing or design defect that could impact quality. After review, the case was closed with no action to be taken." The operators receive no warning prior to the failure.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
When driving through an intersection, the vehicle incorrectly applied the automatic emergency braking system. There was no risk of crash, however the application of the hard braking in the intersection put me at risk of a rear collision. I do see that the new recall is supposed to address this issue.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Had 3 instances of loss of power steering while driving, first time at 5-10 mph, 4/2/2024, then on way home 2 times speeds approx. 45 mph. When checked with a vehicle diagnostic machine it was learned that I had a Loss Of Power Steering Assist. I was then informed that there was a recall for the same problem in 2021, however the recall was VIN specific, and my VIN was not part of the recall, yet it is the same problem. Extreme safety hazard and I've been quoted a fix/repair will cost approx. $3,500.00. Local dealership advised me to contact GM, who then advised me to contact NHTSA. Frustrating that there was a recall, and the publication does not show VIN specificity, recall # N202325410-01. Is there any chance of getting my VIN included added to the recall VIN's that were experiencing same problem and fixed.Thank you

BACK OVER PREVENTION: WARNINGS
My radio is hooked up with my reverse camera, it has been malfunctioning for about a year now. When I place my truck in reverse and the reverse camera comes on it only displays it for 3 seconds than turns immediately off. This is causing a safety issue. I depend on this radio and camera to work properly. They dealer have to assume responsibility over this matter.i took my truck the dealership right 104 thousand miles, the dealership is charging me humongous amounts of cash to have the safety concern fixed.

STEERING
This issue has been fixed two times already and the issue is still occurring. Power steering quits working while driving anywhere. Service power steering warning light comes on. I shut off the engine and then restarted the engine and power steering was restored. Sometimes this worked. Now I have lost all power steering completely. Because the vehicle has been fixed prior, I have to pay to have the parts replaced again.
