Common Problems with the 2019 Chevrolet Colorado

Transmission Issues — Shudder And Loud Vibration; Shifting Problems; Stuttering; Harsh Engagement When Accelerating At Slow Speed; Shifter Interlock Failed; Transmission Failure; Vibration And Slams Into Gear.

Electrical Problems:

“The 7in infotainment system regularly has problems. Most of my problems occur during and after phone calls. When talking, my audio will echo me at a loud volume for a brief second and then cut out for 3-5 seconds. When it comes back the audio will not always be at the volume it was previously. Sometimes louder sometimes very quiet, either way I have no control to change it. This will regularly happen 2-5 times during a 30 min phone call. Usually when I hang up after this happens the problems will persist. Sometimes all audio goes out, sometimes I will lose the ability to control the volume, and sometimes the volume will adjust after a 5-10 second delay. The display will sometimes blackout or reset. These problems are system wide across all audio functions including FM radio, Bluetooth audio, and apple carplay. The only way to correct the issue is to pull over, turn the vehicle off, and open the door.”

“Ignition Key Cannot Be Removed and / or Does Not Rotate to the Off Position. This has been going on for about a year and I have taken it to the dealer 3 times and they are unable to fix the issue. I have searched online and there are many Chevy Colorado owners facing this issue.”

Engine Problems:

“Since shortly after purchasing the vehicle new, I have experienced hard shifting, slipping when accelerating, also experience rough idle at times.I have had the torque converter replaced but I still have the problem. I've even had the service manager ride with me and he stated he experienced the lugging sensation, and said it's normal, they still did nothing to help me, and this is noted on their service record! this vehicle has been in the shop several times for the same issue, and I get the same answer as they find nothing wrong.”

“The contact owns a 2019 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated that while driving at 65 mph, there was smoke coming from the front windshield. The vehicle was pulled over, opened the hood and let the vehicle sit for a while. The vehicle was taken to the arcadia Chevrolet Buick located at (210 S brevard ave, arcadia, fl 34266) where it was diagnosed that the heater core needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 38,000.”

Steering Issues:

“While driving the vehicle listed above, the steering wheel locked, causing the tires to remain stationary. The vehicle was not able to be moved until a tow truck moved the vehicle to the dealership. The vehicle is fairly new, and has approximately 40K miles.”

“Had my truck towed into a Chevrolet dealer to have power steering module checked since it stopped working. Dealer told me the harness was corroded and there was water build up in unit. Got a call a couple days later when it was supposed to be fixed and now the steering column needs to be replaced due to the steering shaft being rusted out.”
