Our department has 7 Chevrolet Colorado pickups, and on one of the 2007's the tire valve stems all broke off when our mechanics tried to remove the caps. The stems are remote transmitters for the low tire pressure warning light. The dealer told us this is a common problem, and the parts cost us $220.
The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated that the chrome on the wheels began to discolor and peel. A few months later when washing the wheels with a pressure washer, the chrome completely peeled away and the wheels looked as if they were corroding. The vehicle was taken to an authorized dealer where he was informed that the wheels were junk. The dealer also stated that they could replace the wheels. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer six times but the wheels were not replaced. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000. The current mileage was approximately 18,000.
