Starting on [XXX] while driving the truck, the gauge cluster and radio went completely out (black screen) and the five red automatic emergency braking LED's illuminated and stayed on for up to 5 minutes. This happened about 8 times on my commute home. This happed again on [XXX] after the dealership did a software update to resolve the issue. The truck was serviced again on 09/11/2025 and I was told that GM has no software fix for this at this time. On 09/25/2025 again the truck was serviced again to try and fix the issue. This time the radio came on and I could not turn it off or adjust the volume. I went straight to the dealer and showed the issue to the service manager James Mask. The cluster and radio to this day continue to go out (black screen), no speedometer, gauges of any sort for

Vehicle: 2023 Chevrolet Colorado Trail Boss Mileage: Approximately 14,000 miles I am submitting this complaint because the ABS braking system on my vehicle activates unexpectedly and causes a temporary loss of braking when driving over uneven pavement. When braking over potholes, bumps, or rough road surfaces at low to moderate speeds, the ABS system engages even though traction is available. When this happens, brake pressure is reduced to the point where the vehicle does not slow as expected. The ABS warning indicator flashes briefly, and there is a noticeable delay before normal braking resumes. This behavior has occurred multiple times in normal driving conditions on city streets, not during panic stops or slippery conditions. The issue feels most pronounced when approaching intersec
While driving my 2024 Chevrolet Colorado, both the infotainment system and the instrument cluster reboot unexpectedly. During these reboots, the speedometer, fuel gauge, and warning lights are unavailable for at least 30 seconds. This has occurred multiple times at highway speeds, creating a serious safety concern because I cannot see my speed or critical vehicle information while the system resets. Restarting the vehicle sometimes restores functionality, but the issue recurs intermittently. I have checked with my dealer, and no permanent fix or recall has been issued by GM at this time. This defect poses a risk to driver and passenger safety and should be investigated promptly.
The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated while driving 75 MPH, the cruise control feature was intermittently inoperable causing the vehicle to lose automotive power. The Blind Spot mirror sensor warning light intermittently failed to illuminate when another vehicle was passing by the vehicle. The turn signal lights intermittently activated the opposite turn signal light after the turn was completed. The pedestrian detection warning light was intermittently illuminated. The failures occurred on several occasions. The vehicle was taken to a dealer on several different occasions to be diagnosed; however, the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline

The upper radiator hose on some huge percentage of these trucks fail (mine has failed at just over 20K miles). You can check the Colorado Chevy forum, youtube, etc., et al, and find plenty of instances where this has failed. As this is the cooling system, it can cause the engine to overheat and potentially ruin the engine. The flaw seems to be an engineering issue with the rubber seal they use (instead of a high quality o-ring) to seal the upper hose to the radiator. Additionally, since this can cause engine failure it should be addressed immediately. Instead, my local Chevy dealer, since its not a recall item, said they could schedule a time next week for me to LEAVE the truck and then they would get to it in 7-10 days. This is extremely unfair to the consumer who depends on these v
Upper coolant hose started leaking two weeks ago.
A leak in the upper radiator coolant intake hose has been found. This leak is the result of a bad rubber o-ring in the connection between the radiator and the hose. This has resulted in coolant regularly leaking from the vehicle causing power train issues, health and safety concerns where toxic coolant is leaking and environmental concerns. A loud “whooshing” noise was heard from the engine bay prior to eventually a check engine light being illuminated when the coolant level became low enough.
The vehicle was purchased new from Courtesy Chevrolet in San Diego, CA. After 500 miles on the odometer, I decided to change the oil with fresh Castrol Syntec 5W-30 which has the Dexos 1 Gen3 approval along with a new ACDelco PF66 oil filter. Upon removing the oil drain plug and after all of the oil had been drained, I noticed the threads for the oil drain plug appear to be loose and perhaps broken free from the stamped aluminum oil pan. Luckily, I was fortunate to obtain a perfect seal while pulling on the drain plug and threading it into the pan. The attached images are from a new oil pan I purchased. The steel threaded insert inside the stamped aluminum oil pan has broken free and the only way to properly repair it is to have the factory oil pan replaced with another. The design

Bought a 2024 Chevy Colorado in Dec 2024. Going through a car wash, the air blower put dent in top of the truck. Found out there is a technical service bulletin 23-NA-209 where Chevy admits there is structural issue with bracing of the roof. The TSB also shows where five additional braces are to be added to the roof to give structural integrity. Worried about safety of truck should there be a rollover.

The front brake pads are showing extremely uneven ware. Outer brake pad is at 2mm and the inner is at 7mm due to a spring issue on the front caliper. There is also a lip on the left rotor. The tech used 25-NA-365 to help identify the issue. However, my VIN is not covered under this repair. The result is a $500 out of pocket repair for something that should be a mfg defect and not wear and tear. As this was already outlined as an issue with other 2024 Chevy Colorado's I am asking this to be expanded to cover my vehicle as well. The issues was also causing my brake sensors to "detect" new brakes and I had to inform the vehicle that I have not had brake service done to trigger this alert.
Visibly observed antifreeze / coolant leaking from top radiator hose where it connects to the radiator. Dealer replaced upper radiator o-ring but it's still leaking. At 17000 miles a service brake warning message showed up on information screen. Front brake rotors are warped. Dealer states normal wear on front brakes. Also the dealership stated the front left inner brake pad was down to 2mm of pad left. Wanted over $420 to turn rotors and replace pads. I inquired why the left front pads were worn so much than the right side. They stated this was normal!
On the afternoon of [XXX], I had an interesting incident in a parking lot while slowly pulling into a parking spot. As I began braking, the brake pedal suddenly sank to the floor, forcing me to engage the emergency brake to stop the vehicle. After restarting the truck, the pedal firmness returned, but I noticed a peculiar sound, likely originating from the ABS pump or solenoids. No warning lights illuminated on the dashboard, and no error codes were detected with my scanner. Additionally, I’ve observed that the front driver’s side wheel has significantly more brake dust compared to the passenger side. I brought this issue to the attention of the service advisor at Boulevard GMC in Signal Hill, CA. Boulevard GMC informed me that brake parts are currently on a nationwide backorder, and the

Cold weather random single quiet chime heard over radio. Random times no duplicating. Sometimes at stop light with brake pressed it will chime once. Other time as you take off from stop sign single quiet chime heard. Other times as you are driving it will do this. Only factor is that is when its cold outside. Vehicle drives fine and no lights on dash indicating an issue. Roads clear no snow or ice. Cleaned all 3 cameras and still same issue when cold outside. Not sure if this is affecting any safety features on vehicle or not or something chevy needs to address in an update to fix. I am not the only one with this issue as I have read a lot on facebook posts and internet forums for this
