I was driving home from work during the night-time hours and both headlights quit working. Now, the left headlight continues to go out but I can touch it and it will come on. I have replaced the light several times and nothing works. Also, 1 week ago, the abs failure message appeared. There are multiple complaints with this problem and frankly, both of my issues are safety concerns. Gm has installed defective parts as usual and now the customers are bearing the cost of repairing their failures. These are safety concerns that need to be recalled. I have recently had the intake valve seats replaced because of a gm defective part. This abs failure concern is my number 1 concern as I have very small children.

Abs failure on info screen of truck. 06 chevy Colorado. Taken to dealer and was told left side hub and sensor need replaced. Truck has at this time a little over 10k miles on it. In less than another 1k miles it started again. Dealer checked out the truck and said both sides now need replaced at a cost of around $1300. I reminded them they did replace the left side. O ok we'll cover that side but you'll have to pay for the other side. I told them I would get it fixed just before my yr was up on the left side repair warranty. I ask them if the truck was safe to drive and the answer is yes, we just state inspected it while it was here. So, April 2011 is the time I have to get the repairs done by.
On my 2006 Chevrolet Colorado the abs fault light comes on every now and then. Also you can hear the abs motor engage when you apply the brakes. I believe there is a safety issue here !!!! you never know if you apply the brakes in an emergency will the abs system work or fail? the truck has less ten 29,000 miles on it and it should not have this kind of problem with the brake system.
