Rear leaf spring mounts and frame rusting through causing a safety hazard. Chevrolet doesn't offer a repair part nor does the aftermarket. The internet is ripe with other owners experiencing this or similar issues. The consumer stated there is frame corrosion specifically rear frame shackle mounts and lateral supports. The contact believes that the failure comes from the frame being made with the wrong metal thickness or metal that is not rust-proof. The vehicle was taken to a specialty shop to weld the frame, but the contact believes that is not the best way to fix the issue.

THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO BAUMANN CHEVROLET BUICK GMC INC (2291 OH-18, TIFFIN, OH 44883) WHERE HE WAS PROVIDED THE NUMBER TO NHTSA AND OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

FIRE IN THE ENGINE WIRING, FUSE BOX,BATTERY STORE PARKING LOT PARKED ENGINE OFF GMC TOOK TRUCK SAID IT WASN'T A FACTORY ISSUE NO INFORMATION WAS GIVEN TO ME SAID IT WAS CONFIDENTUAL HAD TRUCK 6 WEEKS

BLOWER MOTOR ON MY 2006 CHEVROLET COLORADO QUIT WORKING EXCEPT FOR THE HIGH POSITION. LEAVING THE FAN IN THE HIGH POSITION TOO LONG WILL CAUSE THE FAN TO QUIT WORKING AND THEN THERE IS NO A/C , HEATER OR DEFOGGER THAT WILL WORK WHEN NEEDED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO TOLD ME THAT HE KNOWS WHAT THE PROBLEM MAY BE, A RELAY OR THE WIRING HARNESS. AT A COST OF 328.00. HE TOLD ME OFF THE RECORD IF I WIGGLE THE WIRING HARNESS IT MAY WORK FOR A WHILE SINCE THE HARNESS MOST LIKELY WAS INCORRECTLY ROUTED.. I HAVE TALKED TO MANY COLORADO AND GMC CANYON OWNERS BOTH IN PERSON AND ON INTERNET FORUMS WHO REPORTED THAT THEY ARE HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. THIS ISSUE COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY IN THE WINTER TIME WHEN THE DEFOGGER IS REALLY NEEDED TO KEEP THE WINDOWS CLEAR FOR SAFE DRIVING. I INITIALLY THOUGHT THAT IT WAS JUST A SIMPLE BURNED OUT MOTOR , AND I WOULD JUST NEED TO REPLACE IT. BUT SINCE WHAT I WAS TOLD FROM THE DEALER SERVICE WRITER, AND WHAT OTHERS HAVE SAID IN THE FORUMS, I WOULD BE WASTING MONEY ESPECIALLY IS IT IS FROM A BAD WIRING HARNESS. I THINK GM SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS AND MAKE NEEDED REPAIRS. *TR

ON JULY 1, 2018, MY SON WAS DRIVING HIS 2006 CHEVY COLORADO ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT COMBUSTED IN THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE ENGINE AREA. THANKFULLY, HE WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE BEFORE IT BECAME FULLY ENGULFED! THE PICKUP BURNED ENTIRELY, VERY HOT AND VERY QUICK. SEE ATTACHED PHOTOS. I DID CONTACT GM, AS I SEE THERE HAVE BEEN MANY CLAIMS OF FIRE IN THESE VEHICLES. HOWEVER, GM WAS UNWILLING TO PUT EFFORT INTO TRYING TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THIS FIRE THAT ENDANGERED MY SONS LIFE!! I HAVE RECEIVED NO ANSWERS, NO COMPASSION, NO FOLLOW THROUGH. IT IS BEYOND DISAPPOINTING FOR A COMPANY SUCH AS GENERAL MOTORS TO NOT BE DOING A BETTER JOB FOR THEIR CONSUMERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 CHEVROLET COLORADO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING UPHILL DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE REAR WHEELS OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL.

WE OWNED A 2005 COLORADO THAT HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE LIFTERS WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED. IT ALSO SHIFTED INTO 4 WHEEL DRIVE HIGH, IN MOST CASES WHEN SHIFTING TO DRIVE AFTER BEING PARKED OR IDLING IN TRAFFIC. STEERING AND BRAKES WOULD LOCK UP, AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT OUT OF 4WD HIGH WAS TO DRIVE IN REVERSE. AFTER A YEAR LONG BATTLE WITH OUR LOCAL CHEVY DEALER, AND 11 TIMES IN FOR SERVICE, WE TRADED IT IN FOR A 2006 MODEL. TWO WEEKS AFTER WE GOT OUR NEW TRUCK, THE SAME THING WITH THE 4-WHEEL DRIVE HAPPENED WHILE IN LINE AT THE BANK DRIVE-UP ON A SATURDAY MORNING. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AS SOON AS I GOT HOME AND WAS TOLD TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING THE TRUCK IN TO BE LOOKED AT. UPSET, I TOLD HIM THAT WE HAD TAKEN OUR LAST TRUCK IN COUNTLESS TIMES FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM AND THE PROBLEM COULD NEVER BE "DUPLICATED". WE DID TAKE IT IN AND THEY REPLACED SOME COMPUTER PART OR CHIP BUT IT HAS DONE IT AGAIN SINCE THEN. THIS COULD BE EXTREMELY SERIOUS IF WE WERE DRIVING AT ANY RATE OF SPEED LET ALONE ON A HIGHWAY. CHEVY NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. WE NEED TO MAKE THEM ADDRESS IT. *TR

I OWN A 2006 CHEVROLET COLORADO LS. INEXPLICABLY AND RANDOMLY, IT SHIFTS ITSELF INTO 4WD HIGH. OFTEN THIS IS WHILE MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN. CHEVROLET STOPPED SERVICING MY VEHICLE, TELLING ME THERE WAS NO CURE FOR THIS PROBLEM. IT HAS HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY AS WELL. THE MOST RECENT DATE THIS HAPPENED WAS YESTERDAY WHILE I WAS TURNING INTO MY POST OFFICE. THIS HAS BEEN A CONSTANT PROBLEM SINCE THE RECORDED MILEAGE WAS 2,109. RECORDS WILL SHOW THE TRUCK WAS IN FOR SERVICE BY GM AT LEAST 15 TIMES. INCIDENTALLY, THIS IS A REPLACEMENT TRUCK FOR A 2005 COLORADO THAT HAD PRECISELY THE SAME PROBLEM. BEFORE THE DEALER WAS SHUT DOWN BY GM, THE SERVICE MANAGER TOLD ME THAT GM DETROIT HAD TOLD HIM NOT TO SERVICE THE VEHICLE FOR THIS PROBLEM ANY LONGER AS GM HAD NO CURE FOR IT. *TR

THE A/C HEATING FAN BLOWER DOES NOT WORK ON SPEEDS 1,2, OR 3, ONLY ON SPEED 4. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I FOUND IT IS RELATED TO THE FAN RESISTOR BURNING UP. I INSPECTED MY TRUCK AND FOUND THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PLASTIC IS BURNT AND HAS STARTED TO MELT. THIS CAN CAUSE A FIRE IN THE CAB AND BE VARY DANGEROUS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS HERE, SO I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. *KB
