ON SATURDAY MORNING MY TRUCK WOULD NOT START. I WENT TO JUMP IT, AND WITH NO KEYS IN THE IGNITION AND NOT JUMPED YET THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND INTERIOR LIGHT WENT ON. THIS WENT ON FOR OVER AN HOUR. I REPLACED BASICALLY A NEW BATTERY. THE RADIO DID NOT WORK AND DASH LIGHTS DID NOT EITHER. ON TUESDAY, APRIL 17 AFTER I PICKED UP MY SON FROM SCHOOL, THE CAR STARTED TO MAKE A LOUD SCRUNCH NOISE AND STARTED TO STALL OFF AND ON. WHEN I PULLED INTO MY DRIVE WAY AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE I SMELLED SOMETHING BURNING. I WENT TO OPEN THE DOOR AND IT WOULD NOT OPEN. I TRIED TO OPEN THE WINDOWS AND THEY WOULD NOT GO DOWN. IT WAS SMELLING REALLY BAD LIKE SOMETHING WAS ON FIRE. ABOUT 25 SECONDS LATER, WITH NO KEY IN THE IGNITION THE INTERIOR LIGHTS WENT ON. I PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION BUT DID NOT START IT AND TRIED THE WINDOWS AGAIN AND MY DRIVERS SIDE WENT DOWN AND I GOT MY SON OUT THROUGH THE WINDOW. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT WAS MY ALTERNATOR WHICH IS GETTING FIXED. READING ALL THE COMPLAINTS I AGREE, WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED. IT'S AROUND 50K MILES AND THE ELECTRICAL GOES. LUCKILY ME AND MY SON GOT OUT. *JS

BLOWER MOTOR FAN SPEEDS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. FAULT WAS FOUND IN BLOWER MOTOR WIRING HARNESS WHERE HARNESS RUNS ADJACENT TO GLOVE BOX. JOSTLE THE HARNESS MANUALLY BELOW THE GLOVE BOX AND THE BLOWER MOTOR SPEEDS WILL GO FROM OFF TO ONLY A FEW SPEEDS TO NORMAL. THIS COULD DEFINITELY BE A FIRE HAZARD. *TR

THE HVAC FAN MOTOR RESISTOR & CONNECTOR MELTED AROUND ONE OF THE PRONG CONNECTIONS AND WIRE. THE RESISTOR AND WIRE HARNESS ARE LOCATED JUST UNDER AND BEHIND THE GLOVEBOX ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THE RESULT OF THE BURNING OF THESE PARTS IS THAT THE BLOWER SPEEDS OF 1-3 DO NOT WORK BUT 4 STILL FUNCTIONS NORMALLY. THIS PROBLEM IS MORE THAN AN ANNOYANCE OF THE FAN SETTING BECAUSE THE CAUSE IS MELTING WIRES AND BURNING CONNECTIONS NEAR THE PASSENGER'S FEET. HOPEFULLY THIS CONNECTION CAN BE RECALLED AND REDESIGNED BEFORE SOMETHING SERIOUS HAPPENS. THIS APPEARS TO BE A VERY COMMON ISSUE AS EVIDENCE FROM THIS BLOG.

THE WIRING HARNESS AND THE RESISTOR PACK FOR THE HVAC BURNS AND IS MELTED AND COULD POSSIBLY CAUSE A FIRE. THIS IS NOT JUST AN ELECTRICAL HVAC PROBLEM. IT IS A GROUNDING PROBLEM, AND CAUSES ALL KINDS OF PROBLEMS. THE HAZARD LIGHTS, BLINKERS, AND STOP LIGHTS ALL STOPPED WORKING ON MY TRUCK. MOST OF THE DASH WOULD GO OUT INTERMITLY. THE AUX PLUGS STOPPED WORKING. I HAD REPLACED THE BATTERY, WIRING HARNESS AND RESISTOR PACK TWICE. GENERAL MOTORS KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. IT ALSO AFFECTS THE GMC CANYON, AND THE ISUZU I-280 PICK-UP TRUCKS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. NO BRAKE LIGHTS, NO TURN SIGNALS, FIRE/SMOKE IN THE CAB, ETC. *TT

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.
Apr 27, 2006
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.
