One problem related to starter solenoid has been reported for the 2011 Chevrolet Colorado. The most recently reported issues are listed below. Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2011 Chevrolet Colorado based on all problems reported for the 2011 Colorado.
There are times when the truck will not start. It is generally when you have driven a short distance or made several stops. When cold the engine will fire right up. After a couple short trips, when you attempt to start the vehicle upon turning the key the dash will go dead. The engine will not turn over. Wait about 10-15 minutes and vehicle will start. Mechanic checks have ruled out battery, starter and solenoid and a short in the system. We have replaced all the relays. May be a passlock issue, but dealer denies history or defect, but a simple google search shows extensive reference to the issue on multiple chevy models.
