general problems of the 2015 Chevrolet Colorado

The contact owns a 2015 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact previously received notification of the NHTSA campaign number: 16v054000 (steering), and the vehicle was taken to the dealer where the recall repair was completed; however, while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering wheel became stiff and difficult to maneuver. The power steering assist warning light illuminated. The contact turned off the vehicle, then opened and closed the driver’s side door and the steering wheel started to perform as designed. The contact stated that the front driver’s and passenger’s side low beam and the rear passenger’s side taillight failed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the steering rack had failed and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was informed that a percentage of the repair cost would be covered. The failure mileage was approximately 110,372.

The 2015 Colorado has an electrical/lighting problem. While the lighting is not a big issue, the fact that it may indicate a more serious electrical problem is. When entering the truck, the cargo light comes on, as it is supposed to, but when exiting the truck, the reverse lights come on instead of the cargo light. I noticed this with our fleet vehicle, and have since heard from many owners who have the same problem.
