Have been having issues with the abs brakes for the last five years on my 07 Colorado. Told that the right sensor was bad and had replaced for $400. About a year later the abs warning would come on and go off all day. You could always hear the system make noise and you knew that the fault light would come on. Toop back to dealer, couldn't say what the problem was until it went out for good. Drove for about a year and had enough and just took it in to another dealer. The wiring harness for the abs had to be replaced. Cost $741 to replace. Original owner of this truck. See that I am not the only one with this problem with the abs.

This piece of junk truck has frequent problems with the abs, with the entire vehicle squealing every time you turn or brake, and today was the final straw. Today while pulling out of a parking lot, going maybe 5 miles an hour, my 2006 chevy Colorado with around 75000 miles had trouble while braking and made a horrible grating noise and sensation. The abs fault sensor immediately kicked on and I had trouble getting to a safe place to completely stop. Today's weather was dry, the pavement was dry, I have a 4x4 truck. There is no reason this piece of crap truck should not be able to handle dry pavement. This vehicle will likely cause me to get in a serious accident and I intend on getting rid of this death trap and never ever buying GMC vehicles again. I'll stick to foreign carmakers who fix their problems instead of ignoring the thousands of people that are having the same problems as I am with the same useless stupid truck. You won't be able to reach me by phone as I'm living overseas. Please email me.

My truck started grinding everytime I used the brakes and the brakes would not stop you. I took it to a gm dealer ([xxx]). The hooked it up to a computer and it showed both abs sensors were bad in the front hubs. They said it would be around &1200 to fix them since it will take up to 8 hours for the type of sensor inside the hub. I feel this is a safety issue since you are unable to stop, and there are lots of other people on edmunds. Com complaining to gm about the exact same problem with the chevy Colorado. Please take a look at all the complaints. Thanks! information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

After having my front brakes replaced, the abs sensor on my brakes intermittently fails when driving this truck. When the sensor fails, my anti-lock brakes engage impairing my ability to stop. This is a widely reported problem with chevy Colorado/canyon trucks and gm needs to acknowledge and recall the truck and fix the sensor. I had an estimate done to "fix" the sensor and it was over $1000, this is after already putting $1000 into replacing the front brakes six months ago on a truck with barely 40k miles.
2005 Chevrolet Colorado 4dr crew cab 2wd . 33,000 miles. Abs errors, trac errors and brake errors for no apparent reason. Today all three errors at same time, one after the other. Happened after driving down street to child's school and back, never going over 25 mph. Trac grinds first, and then abs engages at low speeds thus far. Known problem for other Colorado owners on edmunds. Com site. Chevrolet needs to recall these trucks before someone is hurt. Also heat sensors only allow heat and air to work on high. This happened around the same time we had the initial abs problem during summer of 2010, although the first time we received no errors for abs and were clueless as it is intermittent.
Abs brake hub/ sensor . . . . Brakes go into abs mode without cause or reason. Brake pedal goes into abs mode, when brakes are applied truck pulls hard to the left. Chevrolet has replaced three hub assemblies of which I have had to pay for two. Dangerous situation.
Was driving out of my parking lot earlier this summer, when the abs started kicking on by itself. With or without the brake pedal on the abs was still going. After a few days of this I was getting a little worried about the safety of driving this thing and unplugged an abs sensor. It was getting to be a daily thing, every time I drove the truck the abs would kick on at random times. Still have yet to properly fix the sensors.
I have a 2005 Colorado crew cab 4x4. On several different occasions the brake pedal had to be pumped to stop the vehicle. On wet roads it is like driving in the snow, it will slide in what ever direction you are traveling. I took it to the Chevrolet dealer and they had to replace the right hub and right sensor and put on new brake pads and shoes and it cost me $1,181. 80 and I still have no idea what caused the problem. When the brakes work they are very good but when they don't work it presents a big problem for me and my family. The brakes have always squeaked since the first day I drove it off the dealers lot and they are still squeaking today. I would take it back and have it looked at again, but I can't afford it !!!!!!!.

I have a 2005 chevy Colorado 2wd. I have a abs problem, the abs fault comes on while driving down the road. Checked codes getting c0035 c0040 c0220. I found bad wheel hub on left side. Replaced hub and abs sensor. Still had problem checked codes again,told me the right side abs sensor bad. I had replaced hub and sensor on the right side. The problem still there, spoke with a gm rep. Told me there was nothing they could for me except bring it in and check the problem. I am a ase certified mechanic so I do all my own work. With this problem I have abs stops while driving on dry normal surface roads at low speeds the truck will dart across the road and not stop until you pump the brakes . The problem has been happening everyday for a month. I have 75,550 miles on the truck, when I first bought the truck it only did it when the roads where wet. Not sure what to do about the issue except gm needs to recall and repair the issue. I have over $650. 00 tied up in the brake system on this truck only because I do my own work, if I went to the dealer who knows what it would cost me.
