2015 Chevrolet Colorado complaints

ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS, MY VEHICLE HAS LOST POWER STEERING WITHOUT WARNING. THIS OCCURRED WHEN DRIVING AT A VARIETY OF SPEEDS AND IN A VARIETY OF CONDITIONS. ONE TIME, I WAS TRAVELING AT LESS THAN 5 MILES AN HOUR. ANOTHER TIME, I WAS TRAVELING AT 70 MILES PER HOUR. SOME TIMES IT OCCURRED DURING A TURN, SOMETIMES IT OCCURRED WHILE TRAVELING IN A STRAIGHT LINE. WHEN POWER STEERING WAS LOST, MANY WARNING LIGHTS WOULD GO OFF ON THE DASHBOARD. AFTER PULLING THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND THEN BACK ON SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 1 AND 3 TIMES, THE POWER STEERING WOULD COME BACK.

ON WED. SEP 18TH, 2019 I WAS DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT AT SLOW SPEEDS AS I WAS PARKING THE STEERING FAILED. AN INDICATOR LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASHBOARD INDICATING A STEERING FAILURE AND PROBLEMS WITH THE STABILTRACK. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AND PULLED INTO A PARKING SPOT. I RESTARTED MY VEHICLE AND THE STEERING WAS FUNCTIONAL AGAIN. I CONTINUED HOME TRAVELLING ON HIGHWAY AT 100 KM/H WHEN THE SAME SEQUENCE OF EVENTS OCCURRED. AT HIGH SPEEDS IT WAS EASIER TO STEER AND I PULLED TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD. I RESTARTED MY VEHICLE AND RETURNED HOME, AND THE NEXT DAY I DROPPED THE VEHICLE OFF AT THE DEALERSHIP. IT REMAINS AT THE DEALERSHIP, AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE STEERING HAS TO BE REPAIRED AT A COST OF $2100. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. IF MY WIFE OR DAUGHTER HAD BEEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE THEY WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO MUSCLE THE STEERING WHEEL.

INTERMITTENT LOSS OF POWER STEERING. VERY DANGEROUS. ISSUE SEEMS TO FIX ITSELF ONCE CAR IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO INCLUDE ALL 2015 MADE TRUCKS.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT 3 TIMES WHILE DRIVING. MESSAGE LIT UP ON DASH. STOPPED CAR AND RESTARTED TO CORRECT. ROUGHLY EVERY 250 MILES. HAPPENED 9/1/2019,9/8/2019, AND AGAIN 9/14/2019. DROPPED OFF AT JIM BUTLER CHEVROLET ON 9/17/2019, JUST RECEIVED CALL TODAY 9/19/2019 THAT A SPECIALIST IS NOW LOOKING AT IT. 3 DAYS NO CAR HAS BEEN DIFFICULT. HAD 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER OR EVEN WIFE BEEN DRIVING THERE IS NO WAY THEY COULD HAVE CONTROLLED IT, VERY DANGEROUS. FIRST TIME ON GRAVEL ROAD IN OAKLAND ARKANSAS, 2ND TIME MOST DANGEROUS ON INTERSTATE 44 IN ST. LOUIS AT 65 MPH, THIRD TIME IN BOLIVAR MISSOURI PULLING OUT OF GAS STATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 3 MPH, THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO ED MORSE SAWGRASS CHEVROLET (14401 W SUNRISE BLVD, SUNRISE, FL 33323, (754) 220-2879) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE BOOSTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.

WHILE OPERATING MY COLORADO AT 45 MPH THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT CAUSING ME TO LOSE ALL CONTROL OF THE TRUCK AND ALMOST GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. I RESTARTED THE TRUCK AND IT WAS ABLE TO TAKE MY COLORADO TO DEALER WHICH FOUND THAT THE ELECTRONIC STEERING SENSOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT $2800. CHECKING THE INTERNET I FOUND A GROWING NUMBER OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS OF COLORODO OWNERS LOSING CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLES WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I WANT TO WARN EVERYONE TO GET THIS CHECKED AS A SAFETY ISSUE. CHEVROLET HAS OPENED AN INVESTIGATION [XXX]. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY DEPENDING ON THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE OF THE DRIVER AS THESE VEHICLES ARE GENERALLY PURCHASED FOR NEW YOUNG DRIVERS. I WILL CONTINUE TO INVESTIGATE AND SUGGEST ANYONE READING TO DO YOUR HOMEWORK AS WELL YOUR LIFE OR IN MY CASE; MY KIDS LIFE MAY DEPEND ON IT.

WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED (APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH) ON A TWO LANE COUNTY ROAD, THE POWER STEERING FAILED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. WHEN THIS OCCURRED AT BOTH TIMES, THE STEERING BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT, A MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL THAT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING HAD FAILED AND TO DRIVE CAUTIOUSLY. THE FIRST TIME, NOT KNOWING WHAT WAS HAPPENING, I BRAKED TO A STOP, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN STARTED THE ENGINE. THE MESSAGE REAPPEARED BRIEFLY, THE DISAPPEARED. WITH THE SECOND EVENT, I WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO AN UNOCCUPIED PARKING LOT, WHICH WAS VERY DIFFICULT DUE TO THE STEERING. AT THAT TIME, I AGAIN TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN RESTARTED THE ENGINE. THE MESSAGE AGAIN HAD APPEARED AS IT HAD AT THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. IT WAS FORTUNATE WITH THE FIRST OCCURRENCE THAT NO ONE FOLLOWING BEHIND ME AND WITH THE SECOND OCCURRENCE I HAD TO PULL HARD ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP FROM GOING INTO THE OPPOSING LANE. THE FIRST TIME OCCURRED ON SEPTEMBER 3RD 2019 AND THE SECOND WAS ON SEPTEMBER 10TH 2019. THE FIRST TIME, I HAD CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT UNLESS THE TRUCK CURRENTLY HAD FAILING POWER STEERING, THAT MOST LIKELY NOTHING WOULD BE FOUND WRONG AND WOULD WASTE MY MONEY. AFTER THE SECOND TIME, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT AND MENTIONED TO THEM THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON SOME 2015 CHEVY COLORADO'S DEALING WITH POWER STEERING PROBLEMS. THE APPOINTMENT IS ON 9-17-19.

BRAKES ARE NOT WORKING PROPERLY AND SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST MESSAGE

I HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH MY BRAKES SINCE THE TRUCK WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW. I HAVE HAD IT TO SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS AND STILL KEEP GETTING A SERVICE BRAKE ASSIST MESSAGE. AFTER PAYING FOR SEVERAL UNNECESSARY PARTS WHICH IS DOCUMENTED I STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM I HAVE ALSO HAD A SLOWER SPEED REAR END COLLISION I HAD BOTH FEET ON THE BRAKE PUSHING AS HARD AS I COULD AND STILL COASTED INTO THE OTHER VEHICLE.

WHILE DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED (APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH) ON A TWO LANE COUNTY ROAD, THE POWER STEERING FAILED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS. WHEN THIS OCCURRED AT BOTH TIMES, THE STEERING BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT, A MESSAGE APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL THAT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING HAD FAILED AND TO DRIVE CAUTIOUSLY. THE FIRST TIME, NOT KNOWING WHAT WAS HAPPENING, I BRAKED TO A STOP, TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND THEN STARTED THE ENGINE. THE MESSAGE REAPPEARED BRIEFLY, THE DISAPPEARED.

AFTER THE SECOND TIME, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT AND MENTIONED TO THEM THAT THERE HAD BEEN A RECALL ON SOME 2015 CHEVY COLORADO'S DEALING WITH POWER STEERING PROBLEMS. THE APPOINTMENT IS ON 9-17-19.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE POWER STEERING MALFUNCTIONED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE POWER STEERING WARNING SYSTEM ALERTED AND THEN THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. MCKENNEY CHEVROLET CADILLAC BUICK GMC (831 S MAIN ST, LOWELL, NC 28098, 855-757-1635) WAS CONTACTED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE MANUFACTURER SINCE THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT ASSIST WITH THE COST OF REPLACING THE POWER STEERING GEAR. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE POWER STEERING SEIZED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V054000 (STEERING) A FEW YEARS AGO. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO OURISMAN CHEVROLET BUICK GMC OF ALEXANDRIA (1800 OLD RICHMOND HWY, ALEXANDRIA, VA 22303, (571) 360-8047) AND REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REPAIR DID NOT CORRECT THE FAILURE. WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE POWER STEERING AND STABILITRAK WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURN THE STEERING WHEEL WITH FORCE. THE CONTACT POWERED OFF THE ENGINE. ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPRERATION. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE FAILURE RECURRED MILES DOWN THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS POWERED OFF AND RESTARTED THIRTY TIMES TO SEE IF THE POWER STEERING FAILURE WOULD GO AWAY, BUT IT DID NOT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO THE SAME DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000.

POWER STEERING MESSAGE POPS UP WHILE DRIVING AND WHEEL IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER. HAS HAPPENED TWICE. RESET 9/9/2019 AND HASN'T HAPPENED AGAIN YET. VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY SINCE 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER SOMETIME DRIVES.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT WITH IN A PARKING LOT WHILE DRIVING. THE FOLLOWING ERROR ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER "POWER STEERING FAULT SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE SAFELY" LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY, JUST BARELY, INTO A LARGE PARKING SECTION. I CHECKED THE FUSES

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING LOST POWER AND THE TRACTION CONTROL AND POWER STEERING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FELDMAN CHEVROLET OF HIGHLAND (248-329-3540, LOCATED AT 3372 W HIGHLAND RD, HIGHLAND, MI 48357) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND CONFIRMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 146,000.

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

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.

MY TRUCK IS ACTING CRAZY WITH MULTIPLE WARNINGS IN DASH DISPLAY, FIRST ONE IS STABILITY TRACK WARNING, STEERING WARNINGS AND THE SPEED, TEMPERATURE AND REVOLUTION GAUGES START GOING UP AND DOWN WHILE THE WARNINGS ARE IN THE DISPLAY. ALSO THE HAVE TW WARNING THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT MEANS.

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?

2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO, POWER STRARING ASSIST FAILED DURING DRIVING. THIS WAS WITHOUT PRIOR SYMPTOMS OR WARNING WHILE MOVING, CREATING A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION. IN READING THE RECALL NOTICE FOR THE EXACT VEHICLE, MAKE, YEAR MODEL WITH PRIOR MANUFACTURING DATE RANGES ARE PRIOR TO MY VEHICLES JULY 2015 MANUFACTUING DATE. IN THE REVIEW, THE CONDITIONS ARE EXACTLY AS STATED IN THE CURRENT NON APPLICABLE RECALL. I AND MECHANIC SUSPECT THIS IS AN INTERMITANT ELECTICAL CONNECTOR ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY EXTENDING THE RECALL DATE RANGE.

WITHOUT ANY NOTICE THE POWER STEERING ON MY 2015 CHEVY COLORADO WILL STOP WORKING. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I AM STOPPED, WHEN I AM ON THE FREEWAY, WHEN I AM DRIVING SLOWLY... JUST TOTALLY RANDOM. USUALLY WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND OPEN THE DOOR, THE CAR WILL RESET AND WORK. HOWEVER, RECENTLY THE PROBLEM PERSISTS AND I HAVE TO REPEAT THE PROCESS MULTIPLE TIMES. FURTHERMORE, WHEN THE WARNING COMES ON TO "SERVICE THE STABILITRAK" OR "SERVICE POWER STEERING" NO CODES SHOW UP WHEN I SCAN THE CAR. SO THE PROBLEM OCCURS AND THE CAR DOESN'T EVEN REGISTER THAT IT IS HAPPENING. WHAT'S WORSE WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THERE IS NO RECORD THAT THE CAR EVER CODED TO BEGIN WITH. I HAVE ALREADY GONE ROUND AND ROUND WITH DEALERSHIPS AND GM AND THEY ALL GIVE ME THE SAME RUN AROUND. "BRING IT IN AND WE WILL TRY TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. OR YOU CAN DRIVE IT IN WITHOUT POWER STEERING." SERIOUSLY? THAT'S THE BEST THEY CAN DO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65-70 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN AUDIBLE SOUND AND THE POWER STEERING AND STABILITRAC WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING ABILITY AND WAS TAKEN TO HOFFMAN CHEVROLET (NOW RENAMED FITZGERALD CHEVROLET CADILLAC OF HAGERSTOWN, LOCATED AT 101 S EDGEWOOD DR, HAGERSTOWN, MD 21740, (240) 329-2004) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAULT CODE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT MAY BE ABLE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V054000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000.

DRIVING AT 65 MPH ON THE FREEWAY THE POWER STEERING QUIT. STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT. A MESSAGE CAME ON IN THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER THAT SAID 'SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CAUTION. THE ROAD WAS SMOOTH, NO BUMPS OR TURNS WHEN IT HAPPENED. PULLED OVER AND CHECKED UNDER HOOD, FOUND NO OBVIOUS PROBLEM. WHEN RESTARTED EVERYTHING WORKED OK FOR ABOUT 10 MILES THEN POWER STEERING QUIT AGAIN ON CITY STREET AT 20 MPH DRIVING STRAIGHT NO NUMBS. TOOK TRUCK TO DEALERSHIP AND IT IS THERE NOW 08/12/2019. DEALER SAID THEY HAVE NOT HEARD OF THIS ISSUE BEFORE BUT I SEE IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM.

THE STEERING CUTS OFF RANDOMLY AND MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO STEER, VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT STOPS WORKING AT SLOWER SPEEDS, I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND A LOT OF THESE TRUCKS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM

THIS MORNING I TURNED ON MY 2015 CHEVY COLORADO Z71 DROVE 5 MINUTES DOWN ROAD AS I CUT THOUGH BACKSIDE OF MALL PARKING LOT LUCKY THERE IS NO TRAFFIC IN THE MORING AS MY DASH DINGED AND LIT UP SAYING SERVICE POWER STEERING. I LOST ALL POWER STEERING THE WHEEL BECAME REALLY STIFF TO TURN BUT I WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE. I TURNED OFF AND ON THE TRUCK MAGICALLY ERROR WENT AWAY, AND I REGAINED POWER STEERING. LOOKS LIKE MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AS OTHERS I CALLED GM AND FILED COMPLAINT THEY OFFERED FOR A TOW TO DEALER (I PASSED FOR NOW SENSE I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET AND DO NOT HAVE $2000 FOR REPAIR) IT SEEMS FINE FOR NOW FINGERS CROSSED IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN I HAVE TO SCHEDULE SOME TIME TO GET IT CHECKED AT A DEALER OR TOWED TO IT.

FEBRUARY 2017 (34141 MILES) - LOST POWER STEERING SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED W/"POWER STEERING SERVICE" WARNING. PULLED OVER W/DIFFICULTY, SHUT DOWN, RESTARTED, PROBLEM SEEMED TO DISAPPEAR. HAD CODE RED AT LOCAL CHEVY DEALERSHIP, NO CHARGE, ADVISED TO RETURN IF ISSUE RECURRED. MAY 2017 (38494 MILES) - SAME ISSUE. RETURNED TO SAME CHEVY DEALERSHIP, DIAGNOSED "POOR CONNECTION IN TORQUE SENSOR HARNESS", INSTALLED SL-N-HOUSING KIT USING N-LUBRICANT AND STATED IT WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY. JULY 2019 (71474 MILES) - IDENTICAL ISSUE (DRIVING, HIGHWAY SPEED, POWER STEERING LOST W/"POWER STEERING SERVICE" WARNING, AND ADDITIONALLY TRACTION CONTROL LOSS WARNING). PULLED OVER W/DIFFICULTY. SHUTDOWN, ISSUE RESOLVED ON RESTART. SAME DAY - WENT TO SAME CHEVY DEALER, TOLD TO RETURN THE NEXT AM DUE TO SCHEDULING. 10 JULY 2019 - RETURNED TO SAME CHEVY DEALER. AFTER 2+ HOURS OF INSPECTION WAS INFORMED THE SENSOR COULD NOT BE REPLACED ALONE AND THAT A LARGE PORTION OF THE STEERING COLUMN HAD TO BE ENTIRELY REPLACED DUE TO THE FAILING "TORQUE SENSOR HARNESS" W/REPAIRS/PARTS ESTIMATED AT OVER $2000.00. WHEN I SUGGESTED THAT THIS MAY BE A RECALL ISSUE I WAS INFORMED THAT THE MONTH MY 2015 WAS BUILT WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH THE PROBLEM IS ESSENTIALLY THE SAME. NOTE: THE ABOVE VEHICLE IS AND HAS BEEN ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY DRIVEN ON WELL MAINTAINED ROADS W/NO AGGRESSIVE OFF ROAD USE/ABUSE.

ON 4 SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN THE PAST MONTH I HAVE LOST POWER STEERING. NO CODES ARE ISSUED ONLY LIGHTS ON THE DASH STATING "SERVICE POWER STEERING" AND " SERVICE SABILITRACK". THE FIRST 2 INCIDENTS OCCURRED ON A STRAIGHT STRETCH OF HIGHWAY AT 45 MPH, 1 INCIDENT OCCURRED IN A PARKING LOT AT 15 MPH. THESE 3 WERE MANAGEABLE BUT THE 4TH OCCURRED IN A CURVE AT 45 MPH. THIS ONE TOOK ALL I HAD TO KEEP THE VEHICLE FROM GOING OFF THE ROAD AND DOWN AN EMBANKMENT. IN ALL INCIDENTS THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, TURNED OF AND RESTARTED SHORTLY AFTER THE LOSE AND THE PROBLEM WAS GONE. VEHICLE IS SCHEDULED INTO A LOCAL CHEVY DEALER TO SEE WHAT THEY SAY IS WRONG.

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO WITH ABOUT 54,000 MILES AND PURCHASED IT USED IN 2018 FROM POHANKA CHEVROLET WITH ABOUT 22,000. WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL HIGHWAY CONDITIONS ON JULY 02, 2019, MY TRUCK EXPERIENCED AN ABRUPT LOSS OF POWER STEERING. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, TURN OFF THE VEHICLE, AND RESTART THE VEHICLE. POWER STEERING FUNCTION RETURNED. I INSPECTED THE POWER STEERING FLUID AND NOTED THAT THERE WAS A SUFFICIENT AMOUNT IN THE RESERVOIR. I CONTINUED DRIVING WITH NO ISSUE UNTIL TWO DAYS LATER WHEN THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN WHILE DRIVING. I STOPPED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE LIKE BEFORE WITH THE POWER STEERING RETURNING ON RESTART. HOWEVER, THE SAME ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN WITHIN MINUTES OF DRIVING. IT HAPPENED A TOTAL OF FOUR TIES ON TWO SEPARATE DAYS. ON FRIDAY, 05 JULY I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY NORMAL CHEVROLET DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIAGNOSED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING STEERING GEAR TORQUE SENSOR THAT WOULD COST $1,962 TO REPLACE. I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE FURTHER AND FOUND THAT THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WAS REPLICATED IN RECALL BULLETIN 15595A. HOWEVER, MY 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO WAS NOT COVERED IN THAT RECALL. IT SEEMS POSSIBLE THAT THE ISSUE NOTED IN 15595A MAY HAVE BEEN MORE EXPANSIVE THAN WAS ORIGINALLY DISCOVERED.

POWER STEERING ON MY 2015 CHEVY COLORADO AS WELL AS STABLE TRACK GOES OUT INTERMITTENTLY. IT CAN HAPPEN WHEN I'M DRIVING OR STARTING THE CAR. TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF AND ON AGAIN USUALLY FIXES THE ISSUE TEMPORARILY. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE MECHANIC AND CODES CO545, U0420, B1325 AND U04135 WHICH ARE THE STEERING WHEEL TORQUE SENSOR, INVALID DATA RECEIVED FROM POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE, CONTROL MODULE POWER CURRENT VOLTAGE BELOW THRESHOLD, AND INVALID DATA RECEIVED FROM BRAKE CONTROL MODULE. THE TRUCK IS BARELY 4 YEARS OLD AND TO REPLACE THE PART WILL BE 2300. IT IS EXHIBITING THE SAME ISSUES AS THE RECALL IN 2016 AND SEARCHING AROUND I FIND MORE PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE POWER STEERING SEIZED AND VARIOUS UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. DURING THE MOST RECENT FAILURE, THE POWER STEERING FAILED TO RESET AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO RELIABLE CHEVROLET (9901 COORS BLVD NW, ALBUQUERQUE, NM 87114, 505-216-2993). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON HER VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE STEERING ABILITY SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. ONCE RESTARTED, THE STEERING RETURNED TO NORMAL; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER STEERING MODULE FAILED AND NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

TOTAL LOSS OF POWER STEERING ASSIST WITH "SERVICE POWER STEERING" MESSAGE ON SCREEN WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. ALSO LOSS OF ANTISKID AND STABILIRAK. VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION! CAN'T IMAGE WHAT MIGHT HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS FAILED IN A TURN. THE VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVABLE IN THIS CONDITION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE POWER STEERING INTERMITTENTLY MALFUNCTIONED AND CAUSED THE STEERING WHEEL TO BECOME VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION. ON APRIL 22,2019 MY SON WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND HIT A DEER DUE TO THE FACT THE POWER STEERING HAD FAILED. HE COULD NOT STEER IT QUICK ENOUGH TO AVOID IMPACT WITH THE DEER. SO THE TRUCK HAS LEFT FRONT BUMPER DAMAGE AND SUSPENSION DAMAGE BUT IT WAS STILL DRIVABLE. THE FAILURE WAS DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. TO FIX STEERING THEY REPLACED THE COMPLETE POWER STEERING MODULE WITH GEAR FOR $1,944.04. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE LOCAL DEALER (DENECKER CHEVROLET, 510 US-7, MIDDLEBURY, VT) WAS NOTIFIED, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. *BF *JB

THE POWER STEERING MAINTENANCE AND TRACTION CONTROL COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND LOCKS UP THE STEERING. I HAD TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY BECAUSE I WSS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, TURNING INTO THE RESIDENTIAL AREA WHERE I LIVE. THE STEERING WAS HARD. I TUTNED OFF THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND THE WSRNING MESSAGED WERE GONE AND I REGAINED THE POWER STEERING. THIS HAD HAPPENED TWICE WHILE DRIVING.

POWER STEERING GOES OUT AT ANY TIME NO WARNING HARD TO STEER A MAN CAN STEER IT MY WIFE CAN NOT

THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET AT A SPEED LIMIT OF 25MPH OR 55MPH AND WHILE TURNING ON A STREET. THE STEERING WHEEL GETS REALLY HARD, UNABLE TO MANEUVER. STEERING WHEEL STOP WORKING. THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT UP. MESSAGE :( SERVICE POWER STEERING -DRIVE WITH CARE ) WE WERE ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWER OFF ENGINE THEN RESTART. THE MANUFACTURE HAS BEEN NOTIFIED THREE TIMES, LAST YEAR AND THIS YEAR. PER GM THERE'S NOTHING IT CAN BE DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IT DOESN'T SHOW ANY CODE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO PENSKE CHEVROLET MULTIPLE TIMES AND WE ALWAYS GET THE SAME ANSWER, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG, THEY CHECK AND NO DIAGNOSTIC CODE SHOW ON THE COMPUTER. THEY ONLY DID AN UPGRADE, BUT THAT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED AND THE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND POWERED OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES: C0545 (STEERING WHEEL TORQUE SENSOR MALFUNCTION) AND U0420 (POWER STEERING CONTROL MODULE) APPEARED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 9-5192152046. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

WHILE DRIVING POWER STEERING IS DISABLED, WHEN I STOP THE VEHICLE AND RESTART THE POWER STEERING FUNCTIONS AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE ON A HIGHWAY.

MY TRUCK RANG 3 TIMES AND A PROMPT SHOWED UP ON THE DASH SAYING SERVICE POWER STEERING AND LOSS OF STABILITRACK. I WAS SITTING AT THE DRIVE THRU AND HAD TO PULL STRAIGHT INTO A PARKING SPOT BECAUSE TURNING THE VEHICLE BECAME PRETTY MUCH IMPOSSIBLE. MY TRUCK ONLY HAS 30,000 MILES ON IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SERVICE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED, IT OPERATED NORMALLY. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE SERVICE POWER STEERING WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, BUT THE STEERING REMAINED OPERATIONAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GARY RUSS CHEVROLET (LOCATED AT 1420 SC-72, GREENWOOD, SC 29649, (864) 538-0376) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THERE WERE NO CODES STORED IN THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE.

POWER STEERING GOES COMPLETELY OUT

POWER STEERING ASSISTANCE. NO POWER STEERING AT ALL.THIS QUOTE CAME ACROSS THE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER "SERVICE POWER STEERING,DRIVE WITH CARE.WHILE WE WAS STOP A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT TIMES AND ALSO WHEN WE WAS DRIVING.

POWER STEERING FAILURE. MY 2015 CHEVY COLORADO TRUCK, WITH 41,153 MILES, HAD A POWER STEERING FAILURE 4 DAYS AGO (MARCH 22, 2019). WHILE TRAVELING ON A DRY, SMOOTH ROAD AT 30 MPH AND WHILE BRAKING, THE STABILITRAK "OFF" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, AS WELL AS A POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING. THERE WAS AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER STEERING, AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY HARD TO TURN. INITIALLY I THOUGHT THE TRUCK HAD STALLED, BUT IT HAD NOT. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE 2 RIGHT-HAND TURNS AT SLOW SPEED TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC AND INTO A PARKING LOT. I HAD TO USE A LOT OF MUSCLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE INTO THE LOT. I TURNED OFF THE TRUCK THEN RESTARTED AND THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE OFF AND POWER ASSIST RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE TRUCK UNTIL THIS EPISODE. I CHECKED THE VIN NUMBER AGAINST A RECALL LIST AND THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE (THAT I'M AWARE OF). I'VE PLACED A CALL TO THE CHEVY DEALER SERVICE MANAGER AND I'M A WAITING FOR A RETURN CALL. IN THE MEANTIME MY WIFE IS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, AND I KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WONDERING IF IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN UNDER LESS FAVORABLE CIRCUMSTANCES.

TAKATA RECALL. MY 2015 COLORADO HAS EXPERIENCED A POWER STEERING FAILURE AFTER RECENTLY HAVING A STEERING ELECTRICAL RECALL REPAIR. I FEEL CHEVROLET IS AWARE THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE AND A SAFETY ISSUE IN A LOT OF COLORADO'S. THIS SHOULD BE HANDLED AS A RECALL NOT A 2K DOLLAR REPAIR PUT BACK ON THE CONSUMER.

I HAVE A 2015 CHEVY COLORADO THAT HAD A POWER STEERING RECALL , MINE HAS 68,000 MILES ON IT AND THE CHECK POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT COMES ON CONTINUOUSLY. I HAVE GOTTEN NOTHING BUT A RUN AROUND FROM THE CHEVY AND GMC CUSTOMER SERVICE. THEY SAY MY TRUCK WAS NOT MADE AT THE RECALL PLANT., MY QUESTION IS HOW DO THEY KNOW IF SOME OF THE PARTS WERE NOT FROM THE RECALL PLANT?? NO ONE WILL HELP ME AND THIS IS SERIOUS, IT MAY BE ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE THE POWER STEERING GOES, AND THIS COULD POTENTIALLY END BADLY... PLEASE ADVISE

POWER STEERING FAILED WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED ON THE FREEWAY IN A TURN. THERE ARE MANY RECALLS FOR THIS SAME THING ON THE SAME MODEL AND YEAR BUT NOT MY VIN#. RECALL SHOULD BE EXPANDED. CHEVROLET REDUCED THE AMOUNT FOR REPAIR FROM $2100 TO $800 BUT SHOULD BE COVERED IN A RECALL.

WHEN PUT VEHICLE IN PARK I AM OFTEN UNABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION. I HAVE TO RESTART IT & MOVE STEERING WHEEL TO ANOTHER POSITION. OFTEN HAVE TO DO SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I CAN GET KEY OUT. DEALER SAID THERE ARE COMPLAINTS WITH VEHICLE BEING PUT IN PARK & THEY SAID TO MOVE SHIFTER IN/OUT OF PARK TO GET IT TO WORK. I CAN NOT FIGURE OUT IF SHIFTER OR STEERING COLUMN.
