FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I STARTED TP SMELL GAS IN MY GARAGE AND THOUGHT MAYBE I JUST OVERFILLED THE TANK BUT AS THE DAYS WENT ON THE SMELL INCREASED. ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND I TOOK THE CAR TO MY MECHANIC . HE TOLD ME THE FUEL TANK WAS RUPTURED ON THE TOP WHERE THE METAL COUPLING MET THE PLASTIC. I WAS VERY SURPRISED BECAUSE I NEVER SAW ANY GAS ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. THEN I REALIZED THAT I NOT ONLY COULD HAVE HAD A FIRE IN MY CAR BUT ALSO IN MY GARAGE WHICH IS ATTACHED TO MY HOUSE. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE PROBLEM WAS THE PLASTIC FUEL TANK BUT I DON'T CARE WHAT TYPE OF MATERIAL IT WAS I ONLY KNOW I COULD HAVE EASILY KILLED BOTH MYSELF AND MY WIFE. I HAVE THE $2,000 REPAIR BILL FROM THE MECHANIC AS EVIDENCE BUT NOT THE FUEL TANK.

MY TRUCK SHUDDERS HORRIBLY ON HIGHWAY AND IN TOWN. IT STARTED JUST BEFORE MY LAST SERVICE AT 33731 MILES. I MENTIONED IT TO SERVICE ADVISOR AND WAS TOLD WITHOUT A CODE AS OWNER I WOULD BE THE ONLY ONE THAT COULD TELL THIS. NOTHING WAS DONE. THE ISSUE IS IRRITATING I RESEARCHED AND FOUND OUT IT IS AN ISSUE WITH MANY COLORADOS AND GM VEHICLES WITH THE SAME TRANSMISSION. I WILL BE CHECKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE AGAIN TO SEE WITH THE INFORMATION I HAVE DISCOVERED IF ANYTHING WILL BE DONE.

STEERING
I EXPERIENCED LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST ON MY 2015 COLORADO (VIN# [XXX]) AT START UP OR WHILE DRIVING AND IMMEDIATELY LOOKED ON LINE FOR A RECALL FROM GM. I FOUND OUT THAT INDEED GM HAD RECALLED THIS YEARS COLORADO'S AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. WELL IT TURNS OUT THAT ALTHOUGH THE SAME PROBLEM, SINCE THE VIN NUMBER OF MY TRUCK DID NOT MATCH THE RECALLED NUMBERS, THE DEALER WOULD NOT TAKE CARE OF IT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT *TR

POWER TRAIN
THE TRANSMISSION IS EXTREMELY SLOW TO DOWNSHIFT. AS YOU CONTINUE TO PUSH THE GAS PEDAL, IT WILL FINALLY DOWNSHIFT, SOMETIMES TWO GEARS, AND SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. WHEN ON CRUISE CONTROL, YOU LOOSE ABOUT FOUR MPH BEFORE IT FINALLY DOWNSHIFTS, AGAIN SOMETIMES DOWNSHIFTING TWO GEARS. IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR BEHIND YOU DOESN'T ANTICIPATE THE LOSS OF SPEED AND THEN YOU SUDDENLY ACCELERATE. IT HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS, BUT IS PARTICULARLY UNSAFE AT LOW SPEEDS WITH THE SUDDEN ACCELERATION. THIS IS PROBABLY A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AS THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS MUCH MORE NORMALLY IF YOU PUT IT IN 'TOW/HAUL' MODE. THE DEALER SAYS THIS IS 'NORMAL' AND GM CALLS IT ' TORQUE MANAGEMENT '. IT IS ESPECIALLY UNSAFE IN SLICK CONDITIONS OR RAINY ROADS. BTW, I HAVE A 2017 IMPALA WITH THE SAME SIX SPEED AND V-6, AND IT DOES NOT EXHIBIT THIS RELUCTANCE TO DOWNSHIFT. THANK YOU.

WHILE DRIVING, OCCASIONAL ERROR MESSAGE WILL APPEAR ON DIC ALERTING THAT POWER STEERING HAS GONE OUT. VEHICLE IS VERY HARD TO STEER MANUALLY. THIS ISSUE HAS OCCURRED AT LOW SPEEDS DRIVING THROUGH NEIGHBORHOODS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. GM ISSUED A RECALL FOR ONLY SELECT 2015 CHEVY COLORADOS AND THE DEALERSHIP SAYS MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THAT RECALL.

STEERING
MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS, I HAVE LOST ALL POWER STEERING IN MY VEHICLE. THE STABILITRACK IS NOW ALSO BEING AFFECTED. I UNDERSTAND THERE IS AN ACTIVE INVESTIGATION INTO GMS RECALL OF THIS VEHICLE FOR THIS SPECIFIC REASON. I WANTED TO MAKE SURE THAT MY VEHICLE IS ADDED INTO YOUR COMPLAINT COUNT FOR YOUR INVESTIGATION. I LOSE STEERING AT ANY AND ALL SPEEDS, BOTH WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AND TURNING. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT I AM GOING TO INJURED IF THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. I CANNOT AND WILL NOT PAY FOR THIS OUT OF MY OWN POCKET. WHAT CAN I DO?

I TOOK MY 2006 COLORADO IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE SHOP CALLED ME BACK AND SAID THAT MY FRAME WAS CRACKED. COME TO FIND OUT IT WASN'T CRACKED BUT IT HAD A GIANT HOLE ALONG THE BOTTOM SIDE OF THE DRIVER SIDE FRAME RAIL. I TOOK THE TRUCK TO A GUY THAT IS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND HE SAID IT LOOKED JUST LIKE A TOYOTA FRAME. SO NOW I'M GOING TO HAVE TO TOTAL THIS TRUCK BECAUSE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND IT ONLY HAS 102000 MILES ON IT. GM NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THESE FRAMES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

TRANSMISSION EXHIBITS INTERMITTENT HESITATION, JERKING AND SHAKING WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP AND REVERSE LURCHING WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE TRANSMISSION FLUID HAS BEEN CHANGED PER THE BULLETIN WITHOUT SUCCESS. THE TRUCK HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES WHERE THEY TYPICALLY REPORT "UNABLE TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM" AND THEREFORE DO NOTHING. THE LATEST COMMENT FROM GM CUSTOMER CARE WAS TO BLAME ALL THESE ISSUES ON MY TIRES (36000 MILES). LOSS OF POWER EQUALS A TIRE ISSUE?
