2004 Chevrolet Colorado

I HAVE A 2004 CHEVROLET COLORADO 4WD EXTENDED CAB TRUCK THAT CONSTANTLY VIBRATES AT SPEEDS OF 30MPH AND 55-60MPH. THE TRUCK SHAKES AS IF IT IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT OR TIRES ARE UNBALANCED. I HAD THE TRUCK TO THE DEALER A TOTAL OF FOUR TIMES - TWICE FOR RE-BALANCING THE TIRES AND ONCE FOR A SET OF NEW TIRES. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE TIRES WERE RECALLED BECAUSE OF CUPPING. BUT, THE PROBLEM OF VIBRATING OR OSCILLATING STILL EXISTS. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN ACTUALLY VERY HELPFUL, BUT FRUSTRATED. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS MAY BE A DEFECTIVE DRIVESHAFT, WHICH TELLS ME THIS COULD BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. *JB

DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW MAKES LOUD SQUEALING AND WINDOW SKIPS WHEN MOVING UP AND DOWN (ELECTRIC WINDOWS). DRIVERS DOOR PANEL BULDGES WHEN WINDOW IS AT TOP OF IT'S TRAVEL. HAVE HAD AT CHEVROLET DEALER 4 TIMES FOR REPAIR, PROBLEM STILL THERE. WITH THE WINDOW BEING ON A BIND (DOOR BULDGING) THERE IS A DANGER ON THE WINDOW BREAKING WHEN ROLLING WINDOW UP TO TOP OF TRAVEL. TOLD BY CHEVROLET THEY WOULD NOT WARRANTY THIS PROBLEM ANY LONGER AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO LIVE WITH IT.*AK

BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL ARE TO CLOSE TOGETHER FOR PEOPLE WITH LARGER FEET. I WEAR A SIZE 13 SHOE AND WHEN I WEAR MY HIKING BOOTS, I HAVE ABOUT 1/4" CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE RIGHT SIDE WALL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL, MY FOOT CONTINUALLY CATCHES ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. I AM LOOKING INTO MOVING THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE LEFT OR PUTTING ON A NEW PAD TO GIVE MORE ROOM IN BETWEEN THE BRAKE AND THE SIDE WALL. *JB

NOTICED AN 'OFF' ODOR FROM VEHICLE AFTER IT SAT OVERNIGHT THROUGHOUT THE FALL. AS VEHICLE IS TYPICALLY OPERATED WITH WINDOWS DOWN DURING THE TEMPARATE MONTHS I THOUGHT NOTHING OF IT. ONCE THE WEATHER CHANGED AND VEHICLE WAS BEING OPERATED WITH THE WINDOWS UP I STARTED TO FEEL ILL WITH RESPIRATORY DISTRESS / TIGHNESS IN THE CHEST AND THROAT EACH TIME I OPERATED THE VEHICLE. WHEN RETREIVING AN ITEM FROM THE FLOOR I NOTICED A VERY DISTINCT STRONG ODOR OF MILDEW. I FELT THE CARPETS AND THEY WERE DAMP TO THE TOUCH. FEELING UNDER THE CARPET I FOUND THE PADDING SATURATED FROM THE FIREWALL TO THE REAR OF THE CAB. DEALER FOUND THAT THE SEAM BETWEEN THE COWL AND CAB WAS NEVER SEALED AT THE FACTORY CAUSING WATER TO DRAIN INTO THE CAB'S FLOORPAN. DEALER HAD SPECIALIST COME AND LOCATE/REPAIR THE LEAKS IN THE FRONT AND REAR OF THE CAB. DEALER'S INVOICE STATES THAT THE INTERIOR WAS REMOVED AND CARPETS DE-ODORIZED. UPON PICKING UP THE VEHICLE THE DISTINCT ODOR OF MILDEW CONTAMINATION REMAINED. DEALER STATED THAT IT IS NOT MANUFACTURER'S POLICY TO REPLACE THE DAMAGED CARPETING/INTERIOR MATERIALS EXCEPT FOR THE PADDING. SHAMPOOING OF THE REMAINING MATERIALS DOES NOT REMOVE MILDEW CONTAMINATION FROM THE REST OF THE INTERIOR. HAVE PETITIONED MANUFACTURER AND DEALER TO PLEASE ADDRESS CONCERNS DUE TO THE SEVERE HEALTH CONSEQUENCES. RESPONSE HAS STILL BEEN THAT THEY CAN ONLY SHAMPOO IT WHEN I SMELL SOMETHING. MANUFACTURER IS UNWILLING TO READILY/COMPLETELY REPAIR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES CAUSED BY A COVERED AND ACKNOWLEDGE MANUFACTURING DEFECT. FOR SENSITIVE INDIVIDUALS THE RESULTING MOLD/MILDEW CONTAMINATION CAN HAVE SERIOUS HEATH CONSEQUENCES. INJURIES: RESPIRATORY DISTRESS / TIGHNESS IN THE CHEST AND THROAT (AL

THE BRAKE PEDAL IN THIS VEHICLE IS TOO CLOSE TO THE ACCELERATOR, CREATING A LIMITED SPACE FOR YOUR FOOT. ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION MY FOOT WAS IMPINGED UNDER THE EDGE OF THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR TO BRAKE. I FEEL THAT ONE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACCESS THE BRAKE QUICKLY IN A PANIC STOP SITUATION.

DRIVERS DOOR HITTING BOTTOM REAR OF DOOR JAM, REPAIRED AND PAINTED UNDER WARRNTYA. PASENGERS DOOR NOT CLOSING WITHOUT SLAMMING. REAR DOOR REHUNG AND FRONT DOOR REHUNG AND CLOSE OK BUT THERE IS A 3/32 INCH GAP AT THE BOTTOM IN BETWEEN THE DOORS AND A 3/8 INCH GAP AT THE TOP. THE DEALER SAYS THAT IS OK AND I SHOULD ACCEPT IT SINCE THE DOORS WORK OF. I DO NOT AGREE AND FEEL THAT IF THAT IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS THAT THE VEHICLE WAS BENT, RACKED, TORQUED DURING MANUFACTURE OR TRANSPORT.*AK

AFTER DRIVING HOME I DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS NO KEY ENTRY AVAILABLE FROM THE PASSENGER'S SIDE, NO WAY TO GET IN TO HELP SOMEONE, RESCUE SOMEONE, AND NO WAY TO ESCAPE SOME BY GETTING INTO THE TRUCK.*AK NO ONE HAS BEEN HURT YET. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS ABOUT THE REMOVAL OF THE KEY LOCK FROM THE PASENGERS DOOR ON THE VEHICLE AND NO NOTIFICATION PROVIDED BY THE DEALER.
