TRUCK HAS 25,000 MILES. I DO NOT DRIVE IT OFTEN BECAUSE FUEL ECONOMY HAS NEVER BEEN AS ADVERTISED, NO BETTER THAN 15 MPG. WHEN IT WORKED, IT WAS FUN TO DRIVE. NOW FAILS INSPECTION BECAUSE THE FRAME IS SEVERELY RUSTED, MY TRUCK IS NOW UNSAFE. NOT COST EFFECTIVE TO REPAIR, I HAVE TO SELL AS SCRAP. RADIO REPLACED ONCE. BLOWER WORKS BUT VERY NOISY. ABS SENSORS WERE REPLACED AFTER 10,000 MILES AND NEED REPLACEMENT AGAIN. I HAVE REPLACED INNER AND OUTER TIE RODS AFTER 21K MILES. I HAVE REPLACED GAS TANK GASKET AND EXTERIOR CAB BRAKE LIGHT. ALSO REPLACED TRANSMISSION SHIFTER CABLE DUE TO RUST. TUBE ON RACK AND PINION RUSTED AND REPLACED. TINY COOLANT LEAK THAT I CANT FIND. ALL I CAN REMEMBER. MOST FAULTY VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED. NEVER BUY A FIRST YEAR MODEL OF ANY VEHICLE.

IDLE CONTROL VIA ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY RAISES RPM VERY HIGH WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS NOT DEPRESSED, CAUSING UNCONTROLLED ACCELERATION OF VEHICLE DURING COASTING OR WHEN BRAKE PEDAL IS APPLIED. TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF WITH THE KEY IS THE ONLY ACTION THAT HAS RESULTED IN A CESSATION OF EXTREMELY HIGH IDLE. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE SYMPTOM IS GONE AND THE VEHICLE OPERATES NORMALLY. THIS BEHAVIOR IS ERRATIC AND INCONSISTENT, THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO DUPLICATE DURING DIAGNOSIS. ALL TESTING AND INSPECTION OF THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY, WIRING HARNESS, CONNECTORS, AND FUNCTIONS WITHIN THE ENGINE COMPUTER HAS SHOWN NO DEFECT OR INDICATION THAT A WIRING FAULT, DIRTY THROTTLE BODY, OR OTHER "WEAR AND TEAR" ITEM IS THE CAUSE OF THIS INTERMITTENT REVVING AT IDLE. THE MOST RECENT EVENT OCCURRED ON AUGUST 9TH 2017. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURING FOR AT LEAST 6 MONTHS, ON AVERAGE ONCE A MONTH IN FREQUENCY.

EVERYDAY NOW WHEN I TRY TO START THE TRUCK IT TURNS OVER BUT WILL NOT START, WAIT 15 MINUTES THEN IT WILL START. TODAY WHEN I TRIED IT THE FIRST TIME IT TURNED OVER BUT WOULD NOT START SO WHEN I TURNED IT OFF AT THE KEY IT STOPPED THEN TRIED TO START AGAIN ON ITS OWN FOR ABOUT 8 TO 10 SECS. THE STARTER TURNED THE ENGINE OVER WITHOUT TOUCHING THE IGNITION SWITCH IT THEN STOPPED FOR ABOUT 3 OR 4 SECS THEN TRIED TO START ON ITS OWN AGAIN WITHOUT TOUCHING THE KEY, IT DID THIS START SEQUENCE 3 TIMES IN A ROW. THE GM PASSLOCK SYSTEM IS TERRIBLY DEFECTIVE AS REPORTED BY ALL THE REPORTS ONLINE AND I BELIEVE MY PROBLEMS ARE A RESULT OF THIS SYSTEM. *TR

THE IGNITION WILL NOT START AT FIRST. IT TAKES MULTIPLE TIMES IN ORDER TO GET THE ENGINE TO TURN OVER. ONCE THE IGNITION DOES CAUSE THE ENGINE TO TURN OVER, THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY LOSE POWER WHILE DRIVING AS THE VEHICLE SHUTS ITSELF OFF (AS IF THE IGNITION HAS BEEN TURNED OFF ALTHOUGH IT HAS NOT BEEN). THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS IN THE COURSE OF NORMAL DRIVING ACTIVITIES, SEVERAL TIMES WHILE CROSSING BUSY INTERSECTIONS WHICH LUCKILY HAS NOT RESULTED IN ANY CRASHES TO DATE, BUT MAY VERY WELL RESULT IN A POTENTIALLY FATAL ONE SHOULD IT CONTINUE TO OCCUR. ENGINE HAS BEEN TESTED AND ALL SYSTEMS CHECK OUT, EXCEPT FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH WHICH -WILL- HAVE TO BE REPLACED. *TR

WITH THE REVELATION OF THE GM IGNITION RECALL PROBLEM, THERE ARE MUCH MORE IGNITION PROBLEMS THAT WERE NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE PROBLEM IS IN THE IGNITION CYLINDER AND ALIGNMENT WITH THE PASSLOCK OR PASSKEY SENSOR. MY PROBLEM STARTED SHORTLY AFTER THE VEHICLE WENT OUT OF WARRANTY AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT IT WAS A $1000.00 REPAIR. I CAN NOT AFFORD $1000. SO I HAVE LIVED WITH IT. BECAUSE OF THE MISALIGNMENT IT CAUSES THE IGNITION TO THINK THAT THE VEHICLE IS STOLEN AND DISABLES THE FUEL INJECTORS, IT HAS LEFT ME STRANDED QUITE A FEW TIMES ALONG THE ROAD WAITING FOR THE COMPUTER TO MANUALLY RESET AFTER 10 MINUTES, IT HAS ALSO COST ME SEVERAL TOWING BILLS UNTIL I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH AND FOUND OUT HOW WIDESPREAD THIS ISSUE IS. IF THE MISALIGNMENT IS CAUSING THIS TO HAPPEN WHAT WILL IT AFFECT AS THE PROBLEM WORSENS. THIS ISSUE IS NOT COVERED BY THE CURRENT RECALL BUT DESERVES INVESTIGATING . [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
GM IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2004-2011, CHEVROLET COLORADO, GMC CANYON, MODEL YEAR 2006, ISUZU I-280/I-350, AND MODEL YEAR 2007-2008, I-290/I-370, REGULAR CAB VEHICLES AND EXTENDED CAB VEHICLES WITHOUT A REAR SEAT AND EQUIPPED WITH A FRONT 60/40 SPLIT BENCH SEAT. THESE VEHICLES FAIL TO COMPLY WITH THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 225, "CHILD RESTRAINT ANCHORAGE SYSTEMS." THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR FOR THE FRONT CENTER SEAT IS NOT ACCESSIBLE AND THE OWNER MANUAL DOES NOT INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS REGARDING HOW TO USE THE TOP TETHER.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: BOTH NHTSA AND GM DISCOURAGE PLACEMENT OF A CHILD IN A FRONT SEAT. NEVERTHELESS, THERE ARE INDIVIDUAL CIRCUMSTANCES THAT MAY REQUIRE PLACEMENT OF A CHILD IN A RESTRAINT IN THE FRONT CENTER SEATING POSITION OF THIS VEHICLE THAT DOES NOT OFFER A REAR SEAT. LACK OF ACCESS TO THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR AND A LACK OF INSTRUCTIONS AS TO HOW TO USE IT, MAY RESULT IN IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF A CHILD RESTRAINT. IMPROPER INSTALLATION OF A CHILD RESTRAINT CAN RESULT IN A REDUCTION IN THE RESTRAINT'S PERFORMANCE IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH AND AN INCREASED RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH TO THE CHILD SEATED IN THE RESTRAINT.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL CUT A HOLE INTO THE BACK PANEL TRIM COVER TO ALLOW ACCESS TO THE TOP TETHER ANCHOR FOR THE FRONT CENTER SEAT POSITION AND WILL PROVIDE SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION AS TO USE IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THE MANUFACTURER HAS NOT YET PROVIDED AN OWNER NOTIFICATION SCHEDULE FOR THIS CAMPAIGN. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727 OR VISIT GM'S WEBSITE AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.
GM IS RECALLING 185,903 MODEL YEAR 2004-2009 COLORADO, GMC MODEL YEAR 2009-2004 CANYON, MODEL YEAR 2006 I-280, I-350, MODEL YEAR 2007-2008 I-290, AND I-370, PASSENGER VEHICLES ORIGINALLY SOLD IN OR CURRENTLY REGISTERED IN THE STATES OF ALABAMA, ARIZONA, FLORIDA, GEORGIA, HAWAII, LOUISIANA, MISSISSIPPI, NEVADA, NEW MEXICO, PUERTO RICO, SOUTH CAROLINA, TEXAS, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS AND UTAH. SOME OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A BRAKE LAMP SWITCH THAT MAY NOT WORK AS DESIGNED DUE TO CONTAMINATION IN THE SWITCH.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: THIS CONDITION COULD CAUSE THE SIMULTANEOUS LOSS OF ALL BRAKE LAMPS OR CAUSE ALL OF THE BRAKE LAMPS TO STAY ON CONTINUOUSLY. BOTH OF THESE CONDITIONS COULD FAIL TO WARN OTHERS OF THE DRIVER'S INTENTIONS AND COULD LEAD TO A VEHICLE CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE THE NECESSARY COMPONENTS AS SPECIFIED IN THE RECALL BULLETIN FREE OF CHARGE. GM ANTICIPATES THAT PARTS WILL BE AVAILABLE BY JUNE 2010. A SPECIAL COVERAGE FOR VEHICLES REGISTERED IN ALL OTHER STATES WILL BE IMPLEMENTED IN THE SAME TIME FRAME. IN THE INTERIM, OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCE THE FAILURE CAN OBTAIN A FREE REPAIR, HOWEVER THEY WILL BE REQUIRED TO RETURN WHEN THE NEW DESIGN PART BECOMES AVAILABLE. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727 OR AT WWW.GMOWNERCENTER.COM.
CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS MAY EXPERIENCE THE PERMANENT LOSS OF BRAKE LAMP FUNCTION OR BRAKE LAMPS THAT ARE ILLUMINATED AT ALL TIMES. THE CENTER HIGH-MOUNTED STOP LAMP (CHMSL) IS AFFECTED IN BOTH INSTANCES. ALSO, IF EQUIPPED, THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL BECOME INOPERATIVE. ANY TRAILER BRAKE LAMPS WHICH ARE CONNECTED TO THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LAMP WIRING WILL MIMIC THE VEHICLE'S BRAKE LAMPS WHEN EITHER CONDITION OCCURS.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A FOLLOWING DRIVER MAY NOT KNOW WHEN THE BRAKES HAVE BEEN APPLIED, AND A REAR-END CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH ASSEMBLY. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 5, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438; GMC AT 1-866-996-9463 OR ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727.
