TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE BACKING UP, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED BACKWARD AND CRASHED INTO A PARKED VEHICLE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY LURED FORWARD BY ITSELF, HIT THE CURB AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE, WHICH IN TURN CRASHED INTO OTHER VEHICLES THAT WERE PARKED ON THE SAME ROAD. THE POLICE WAS ALERTED BY ONLOOKERS, WHO THOUGHT THE CONTACT WAS DRUNK. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURY THAT REQUIRED A MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED, NOT TOTALED AND WAS TOWED TO A COLLISION CENTER. THE DEALER WAS NOT CALLED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN CARE OF BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 27,000. *BF CONSUMER STATES THAT HE THOUGHT THE TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. HE STATES THAT HE TRIED TO TAKE VEHICLE OUT OF GEAR AND TO TURN OFF POWER DURING AND AFTER THE ACCIDENT BUT HE WAS UNABLE. POWER WAS DISABLED BY THE PERSON THAT TRANSPORTED VEHICLE TO REPAIR CENTER. *DL

DASH LIGHTS FOR ABS, TRACTION CONTROL, AND STABILITRAC GO ON AND OFF I HAD IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP BEFORE THEY SAID IT WAS NOTHING IT BACK AND I AM BRINGING IT IN AGAIN .I READ ONLINE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BUT ONLY FOR CERTAIN REGIONS ALSO READ THIS IS HAPPENING IN OTHER AREAS LIKE WITH ME. SEEMS DANGEROUS WITH BRAKES AND TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITY. IT HAPPENS WHILE I AM ON THE ROAD WOULD HATE TO HAVE MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE HURT IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG.

BACK IN EARLY 2018 PRIOR TO MY BUMPER TO BUMPER EXPIRING, I HAD THE CHECK POWER STEERING AND STABILITRAK COME ON ON DIC. I TOOK IT TO DEALER BUT THEY STATED COULD NOT FIND ANY ISSUES. THIS KEEPS HAPPENING BUT EVERYTIME I TURN TRUCK OFF AND THEN BACK ON AS STATED IN OWNER'S MANUAL, PROBLEM GOES AWAY. MORE RECENT PAST WEEK, IT HAS BEEN HAPPENINGS AGAIN BUT MORE FREQUENT TO WHICH AT TIMES, TURNING OFF AND WAITING THEN TURNING BACK ON, THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS VARIOUS TIMES (WHILE DRIVING CITY, HIGHWAY, AS I'M TURNING VEHICLE ON FOR FIRST TIME IN THE DAY, WHILE BACKING UP, WHILE PARKING). I HAVE MENTIONED AND TAKEN IN TO DEALER OR OTHER PLACES BUT NO CODES ARE FOUND AND PROBLEM CANNOT BE DUPLICATED.

THE TRANSMISSION IS SLIPPING BETWEEN 3RD AND 4TH GEAR. TAKES A FEW SECONDS TO ACTUALLY GET INTO GEAR. WHEN BROUGHT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY WERE ABLE TO REPLICA THE PROBLEM. WHEN IT WAS BROUGHT UP TO BE REPAIRED WITH GM THEY REPORTED THE ISSUE AS NORMAL AND TO MAKE SURE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID IS WARMED UP PRIOR TO DRIVE. ALTHOUGH IT STILL SLIPPING ON A TRUCK UNDER 40K MILES. THEY ARE REFUSING TO FIX THE ISSUE AS SAYING IT IS A NORMAL ISSUE IN THIS AND MANY OTHER MOTORS. I NEVER HAD A VEHICLE SLIP OUT OF GEAR AND TAKE 2 TO 3 SECONDS REVVING UP AND THEN POPPING INTO GEAR. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT AS IT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS AND DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS FOR SOMEONE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY RO FREEWAY.

THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED OCTOBER 31, 2016 AS A CERTIFIED PRE OWNED WITH 17,900 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. FROM DAY ONE, THE TRANSMISSION (AUTOMATIC V6) HAS SHIFTED POORLY. IT IS SLUGGISH ON ACCELERATION AND REQUIRES PUSHING THE PEDAL TO THE FLOOR TO GET IT TO UPSHIFT. AND WHEN IT FINALLY DOES, IT SKIPS A GEAR AND RAISES THE RPMS TO OVER 4,000. WHEN COASTING DOWN IN INCLINE, THE TANSMISSION WILL ARBITRARILY DOWNSHIFT ITSELF AND WILL OCCASIONALLY SKIP A GEAR, AGAIN CAUSING EXCESSIVE RPMS. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR GM HAS A REMEDY FOR THIS PROBLEM, ALTHOUGH THE DEALER HAS ADMITTED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS FOR THE SAME ISSUE FROM OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE PURCHASED COLORADOS. IT APPEARS TO HAVE ALL THE CLASSIC SIGNS OF A BAD DESIGN! HOPEFULLY, GM WILL OFFER A FIX TO THE PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT OR WORSE!
