HAVE EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH MY TRUCK'S PASS LOCK/ANTI-THEFT SWITCH. THE TRUCK WILL NOT START AND IT TAKES TEN MINUTES BEFORE THE TRUCK RESTARTS. I HAD ONLY ABOUT 22,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED. THIS ISSUE CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM. THE TRUCK ON HAS 26,000 MILES. THIS PROBLEM COULD EASILY BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE IF TRUCK SHUTS OFF IN TRAFFIC. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE A RECALL TO HAPPEN? *TR

DRIVING ON US 441 ENGINE SHUT OFF AND THE PASS LOCK LIGHT CAME ON. HAD TO STEER OFF OF ROAD WITH NO POWER. RESTARTED AFTER STOPPED AND HAPPENED AGAIN COMING BACK UP MOUNTAIN BUT NO WHERE TO PULL OFF ROAD NEARLY HIT BY ANOTHER CAR. DEALER SAYS THIS IS A SECURITY SYSTEM TIED TO THE IGNITION SWITCH AND FUEL WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED BUT SHOULDN'T SHUT OFF FUEL WHILE DRIVING. ADMITTED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THEY EXPERIENCE THOUGH. IF THE PASS LOCK SYSTEM FAILS TO WORK AS DESIGNED AND SHUTS OFF THE FUEL SUPPLY TO THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING IT'S VERY DANGEROUS. SHOULD BE A RECALL TO REPLACE THE SECURITY SYSTEM WITH A SYSTEM THAT WORKS AS DESIGNED. *TR

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. THE ENGINE TURNS OVER HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. AFTER FIFTEEN TO TWENTY MINUTES THE VEHICLE STARTS. TODAY MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IS AT A FRIENDS HOUSE SOME DISTANCE AWAY AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC AND HAVE DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. I AM SURPRISED THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL FOR THE IGNITION SWITCH BY CHEVROLET. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT IF ANY OPTIONS I HAVE OTHER THAN TO TAKE MY VEHICLE BACK TO A CHEVROLET DEALER AND HAVE THEM INSTALL AND RE-PROGRAM THE COMPUTER SYSTEM TO THE NEW IGNITION SYSTEM WHICH BY THE WAY PER ALL OF THE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS I HAVE RECENTLY FOUND ON THE INTERNET IS DEFINITELY DEFECTIVE. I AM ALSO WONDERING IF THIS IS THE PRELUDE TO THE CURRENT IGNITION PROBLEM THE G.M REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE AFTER NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS THAT UNFORTUNATELY ENDED IN CAUSING NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS AND TRULY UNFORTUNATE DEATHS WHICH ALL WERE UNCALLED FOR. I HAVE RESEARCHED MY VEHICLE ON THE INTERNET AND HAVE FOUND NO RECALL OTHER THAN THAT OF A CHILD CAR SEAT ISSUE WHICH DOES NOT APPLY TO MY VEHICLE AS I HAVE TWO FOLD DOWN SEATS IN THE XTRA CAB. *TR

NOT ONLY DOES THIS COME AT THE MOST UN-OPPORTUNE TIME AFTER 10 MINUTES OR MORE TO WAIT FOR THE SYSTEM TO RESET. AFTER READING THIS POST, I SEE THAT I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD TO WAIT UP TO 30 MINUTES SOMETIMES TO GET THE TRUCK STARTED AGAIN. HIS HAS BECOME MORE OF A PROBLEM.SO FAR THERE HAS NOT BEEN A DANGEROUS SITUATION WHERE THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED. BUT IT GETS TO A POINT THAT YOUR AFRAID TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF, FOR FEAR OF BEING STRANDED SOMEWHERE. THE TRUCK HAD BEEN TO THE DEALER MANY TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM THEY WERE UNABLE TO FINE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG.THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH, INSIDE THE STEERING COLUMN AND THE PROBLEM STOPPED. THE FUEL PUMP ON THE VEHICLE FAILED AND THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING GAS AND THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED AND THE VENT VALVE ON THE GAS TANK JUST FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED (76,000 MILES). THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. *TR

Official recalls

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.
Dec 7, 2005
CERTAIN TRUCKS AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 110, "TIRE SELECTION AND RIMS." THESE VEHICLES WERE SHIPPED WITH TIRE AND LOADING INFORMATION LABELS LISTING AN INACCCURATE VEHICLE CAPACITY WEIGHT.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: A MISPRINTED LABEL COULD LEAD TO IMPROPER VEHICLE LOADING SPECIFICATIONS OR TIRE INFLATION WHICH COULD RESULT IN A TIRE FAILURE, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: OWNERS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH CORRECTED LABELS AND INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. AT THE CUSTOMER'S OPTION, A DEALER CAN INSTALL THE LABEL FOR THEM. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MARCH 31, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT BUICK AT 1-866-608-8080, CADILLAC AT 1-866-982-2339, CHEVROLET AT 1-800-630-2438, GMC AT 1-866-996-9463, HUMMER AT 1-800-732-5493, PONTIAC AT 1-800-620-7668, SATURN AT 1-800-972-8876, OR ISUZU AT 1-800-255-6727.
