After my vehicle gained 67xxx it began to have issues with the anti theft system. When I turn my vehicle off, and turn it back on the anti theft light blinks. This has stalled my vehicle. When I attempt to turn it on the engine will crank and the lights flicker on and off. After doing some research I have found that numerous people have also encountered this issue. The only fix know at the moment is to wait 10 minutes and then the engine will start. This can become a nuisance and a danger. I had recently encountered a nail in my tire. I had to pull over on the highway to check what was happening. When I shut my engine off I was stuck on the highway due to my anti theft light blinking and my engine not starting due to this anti theft issue. I have addressed this with gm and also the local dealer with no success for assistance. It was suggested that I do a diagnostics test, but that would run me upward of 400+ to figure out what is going on. I find this to be a manufacture issue. Numerous people have addressed this issue online.
2006 chevy Colorado 4 cyl. 2. 3l camshaft position acuator went bad at 68,000 miles causing rough idle, some stalling, and loss of power. Originally changed camshaft solenoid due to missing screen. Problem came back immediately, dealer tore apart engine and said the actual camshaft actuator needed replaced. Cost $1200. Truck was bought brand new, and serviced on schedule. Have been told this is a common problem for the Colorados, and must be because there is even a technical service bulletin about it. Gm refuses to pay for it unless still under bumper to bumper warranty, which for my year expires at 36,000 miles or 3 years. At 67,000 miles, parts in the engine should not be tearing up. It is poor quality and dangerous to be driving.
Vehicle will crank and not start, check engine does not come on. Wait 10 minutes and truck will start. Happens up to once a week, random. Took it to the dealership , replaced element, installed fuel system power pack,injection system clean and replaced air filter. That was in 2010, truck was under warranty but did not cover this work, did not fix the problem. Truck is no longer under warranty and still having the same problem. Never know when it will happen.
