ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
FIVE MONTHS AGO MY KEY BEGAN TO BE STUCK IN MY IGNITION. HAD TO CONTINUALLY RESTART MY TRUCK TO GET MY KEY OUT. SAME TIME I STARTED TO HAVE INTERMITTENT LOSE OF POWER STEERING. ONLY WAY TO RECTIFY THAT AGAIN IS TO TURN MY CAR OFF AND RESTART. JUST DROVE 13 MILES WITH MY DAUGHTER AND IT HAPPENED 5 TIMES.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
WHILE THE VEHICLE REMAINED IN MOTION TAKING A TURN ON A ROUNDABOUT, THE VEHICLES POWER STEERING AND STABILITRAK SUDDENLY TURNS OFF CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AND NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO COMPLETE THE TURN. THE SITUATION HAPPENED TWICE IN ROUNDABOUTS IN THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS. ONE OF THE TIMES THIS HAPPENED MY WIFE WAS DRIVING WHILE MY TWO YOUNG CHILDREN WERE IN THE VEHICLE. SHE DESCRIBED HITTING THE CURB, BECAUSE OF LACK OF ARM STRENGTH TO PULL THE WHEEL. THE ISSUE RESOLVES WHEN YOU CAN SAFELY PARK AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. AFTER TAKING IT TO THE DEALER IT WAS CONFIRMED THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE "STEERING GEAR PINION" AND APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN SAFETY ISSUE WITH CHEVY COLORADO'S. THE DEALER MENTIONED THE COST TO REPLACE THIS ELECTRICAL COMPONENT INCLUDING LABOR WAS AN UPWARDS OF 1800 DOLLARS. FOR 2015 MODEL YEARS IT APPEARS 3000 VEHICLES WERE RECALLED FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE, HOWEVER A BROADER RECALL WAS NOT EXTENDED TO THE 2016 MODEL YEAR. AFTER CONTACTING GM IT WAS EXPRESSED THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER MY VEHICLE UNDER THIS RECALL AT THIS TIME. I WAS CHARGED FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
IM HAVING TROUBLES WITH THE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM OF MY 2017 CHEVROLET COLORADO, 4X4 V6. THE SCREEN IS OFF, AND THE TURN SIGNALS DOES NOT MAKE SOUND WHEN I ACTIVATE IT. I HAVE LOOSE 7 DAYS ON THE AGENCY AND THEY HAVE NOT FIXED THE ISSUE, THEY CHANGED THE SCREEN, ONE MODULE (HIM SOMETHING LIKE THAT) AND EVERYTHING IS STILL DOWN. IF I DISCONNECT THE + OF THE BATTERY, THEN THE SCREEN IS ON, AND APPARENTLY EVERYTHING IS OK, BUT I TURN THE TRUCK OFF, AND THEN AGAIN ON AND THE ISSUE COMES AGAIN.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING
SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE AND SERVICE STABILITY TRACK LIGHTS TURN ON DUE TO A DEFECTIVE STEERING GEARBOX ACCORDING TO THE DEALER SHOP. IT MAKES THE WHEEL TO BIND AND GETS HARD TO TURN. IT HAS HAPPENED DURING DRIVING (IN MOTION) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREETS, ALSO AT STOPS OR RELIGHTS WHEN FULLY STOPPED, AND ALSO WHILE IN "PARKING" (STATIONARY) AND WHILE TURNING. IT HAS NOT HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY. EVERY TIME I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR SOME MINUTES AND TURNED THE CAR BACK ON THEN THE LIGHTS WOULD RESET BY THEMSELVES AND I WOULD BE ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY AGAIN, BUT THEN IT RANDOMLY WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. FIRST TIME I TOOK IT THE DEALER THEY SAID THE ANGLE SENSOR NEEDED CALIBRATION AND THAT THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED WITH THAT, BUT THEN FEW DAYS LATER I EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM AND ON THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY FOUND OUT IT WAS THE STEERING GEARBOX (PART # 84670808). I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM ALREADY HAS A RECALL. RECALL IS FOR 2015 COLORADO MANUFACTURED JANUARY 6, 2015 TO MARCH 17, 2015. MY VEHICLE FALLS INTO THIS CATEGORY BUT HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, IT CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS DUE NOT LACK OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
I WAS DRIVING AROUND CURVE AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. I HAD VERY LITTLE CONTROL OVER STEERING AT THIS POINT,BUT FINALLY WAS ABLE TO NAVIGATE TO THE SIDE OF ROAD. HAD TO TURN TRUCK OFF AND THEN RESTARTED, TRUCK DID SAME THING FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD WITH NOTIFICATION OF POWER STEERING FAILURE. FEW MORE MILES AND STABILITRACK MALFUNCTION BEGAN BEING DISPLAYED. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS,SINCE YOU HAVE VERY LITTLE STEERING CONTROL WHEN THIS HAPPENS.

WHILE BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, I NOTICEABLE SOUND THAT IS BEST DESCRIBED AS 'WATER RUSHING' IS HEARD FROM BEHIND THE PASSENGER-SIDE DASH AREA. AFTER CONDUCTING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE NARROWED IT DOWN TO THE ISSUE OF AIR TRAPPED IN THE COOLANT SYSTEM. ISSUE IS ISOLATED TO THE AREA OF THE HEATER CORE. HAVE ALSO SEEN MENTIONS OF SERVICE BULLETINS WHERE, IF THE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY, IT CAN BE BROUGHT IN AND THE TANK CAN BE DRAINED AND REFILLED PROPERLY.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY COLORADO HAS COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN/POWERED OFF WHEN MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. TWICE NOW. I'LL BE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, ACCELERATING THROUGH THE TURN AND THEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN, WITHOUT WARNING, THE TRUCK LOSES ALL POWER. NO FLASHING DASH, NOTHING. I HAVE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD, TURN ON THE HAZARDS, PUT IN PARK, AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE NOW. FROM SOME ONLINE FORUMS I'VE READ, THE PROBLEM ONLY SEEMS TO GET WORSE AND HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS AROUND 30-40 MPH. MY CAR IS STILL UNDER MANUFACTURING WARRANTY FOR ANOTHER 500 OR SO MILES. I TOOK MY TRUCK INTO A CERTIFIED CHEVY REPAIR SHOP AND AFTER A WEEK OF TROUBLESHOOTING AND TRYING TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM, THEY HAVE FOUND "NOTHING" WRONG WITH THE CAR. IF THIS DOESN'T GET FIXED AND CONTINUES TO OCCUR, IT'S ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE AN ACCIDENT HAPPENS.

I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE GOING ABOUT 75MPH WHEN A CAR AHEAD OF ME WAS GOING SLOWER SO I TRIED TO PRESS MY BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKES MY BRAKE PEDAL WOULD NOT MOVE CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN. NO WARNING LIGHT WERE ON MY DASH THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN A MESSAGE CAME UP ON MY DASH SAYING SERVICE BRAKE SYSTEM AND ENGINE OIL LOW STOP ENGINE ONCE I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETELY STOP THE TRUCK SAFELY I NOTICE I HAD NO OIL IN MY ENGINE SO THE ISSUE SOMETHING TO DO WITH MY BRAKE SYSTEM AND MY ENGINE OIL HAD I NOT KNOWN HOW TO USE MY EMERGENCY BRAKE IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN INJURIES OR EVEN COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL. THERE SHOULD BE SOME KIND OF RECALL ESPECIALLY SINCE YOU HAVE NO WARNING WHEN IT HAPPENS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING
WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 75 MPH THE STABILITY CONTROL/TRACTION CONTROL AND POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON MY TRUCK. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN STARTING VEHICLE. DEALER SHIP STATED ALL RECALLS HAVE BEEN COMPLETED BUT HAVING SAME ISSUES EVERYONE ELSE, SO VEHICLE WAS NOT FIXED CORRECTLY. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM. THIS SHOULD BE FORCED TO BE REPAIRED. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THE PUBLIC, THE OPERATOR, AND ANYONE RIDING IN THE VEHICLE.

MY 2017, COLORADO 2 WD, 33,000 MILES, BEGAN TO RUMBLE, INTERMITTENTLY AT HWY CRUISING SPEEDS. IT FEELS AND SOUNDS AS IF I'M DRIVING OVER HWY RUMBLE BARS. RUMBLING STOPS AS SOON AS I TAKE MY FOOT OF THE ACCELERATOR. THIS PHENOMENON BEGAN AS AN OCCASIONAL ANNOYANCE BUT HAS INCREASED SIGNIFICANT TO A DAILY EVENT. I'VE SCHEDULED A TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE WITH THE DEALER IN TWO DAYS.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), STEERING
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING QUITS WITH NO WARNING AND LOSE TRACTION CONTROL AND POWER STEERING. DASHBOARD LIGHTS COME ON TO SAY POWER STEERING FAILURE USE CAUTION. PROBLEM IS PERSISTENT MULTIPLE TIMES A WEEK WITH NO WARNING. THE ONLY WAY TO RESOLVE ISSUE IS TO STOP FOR FIVE MINUTES AND RESTART ENGINE. THIS TEMPORARILY FIXES THE ISSUE BUT THE PROBLEM WILL REOCCUR AT UNSUSPECTING MOMENTS. IT HAS HAPPENED AT VARYING SPEEDS FROM 25 MPH TO HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF 75. CAUSES THE STEERING TO BECOME HEAVY AND UNMANAGEABLE REQUIRING A SPEED REDUCTION AND STOPPAGE TO RESET ENGINE. MADE APPOINTMENT WITH DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE TRUCK IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THAT IT WOULD BE AN OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE.
