2015 CHEVROLET COLORADO Electronic Stability Control (esc) Problems

MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT ON A 45MPH TURN AND NEARLY LOST CONTROL OF MY TRUCK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR THEM TO SAY THERE IS NO RECALLS ON IT. IF I WERE AN OLDER PERSON AND THIS HAPPENED TO THEM I'M SURE THEY WOULD OF LOST CONTROL BECAUSE I REALLY HAD TO PUT A LOT OF EFFORT TO GET MY TRUCK BACK ON THE ROAD. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND IT SHOULD BE TAKEN CARE OF BY CHEVROLET.

Mileage: 86,000

SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE AND SERVICE STABILITY TRACK LIGHTS TURN ON DUE TO A DEFECTIVE STEERING GEARBOX ACCORDING TO THE DEALER SHOP. IT MAKES THE WHEEL TO BIND AND GETS HARD TO TURN. IT HAS HAPPENED DURING DRIVING (IN MOTION) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREETS, ALSO AT STOPS OR RELIGHTS WHEN FULLY STOPPED, AND ALSO WHILE IN "PARKING" (STATIONARY) AND WHILE TURNING. IT HAS NOT HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY. EVERY TIME I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR SOME MINUTES AND TURNED THE CAR BACK ON THEN THE LIGHTS WOULD RESET BY THEMSELVES AND I WOULD BE ABLE TO DRIVE NORMALLY AGAIN, BUT THEN IT RANDOMLY WILL HAPPEN AGAIN AND AGAIN. FIRST TIME I TOOK IT THE DEALER THEY SAID THE ANGLE SENSOR NEEDED CALIBRATION AND THAT THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED WITH THAT, BUT THEN FEW DAYS LATER I EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM AND ON THE SECOND TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY FOUND OUT IT WAS THE STEERING GEARBOX (PART # 84670808). I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM ALREADY HAS A RECALL. RECALL IS FOR 2015 COLORADO MANUFACTURED JANUARY 6, 2015 TO MARCH 17, 2015. MY VEHICLE FALLS INTO THIS CATEGORY BUT HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN, IT CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS DUE NOT LACK OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE.

POWER STEERING ON MY 2015 CHEVY COLORADO AS WELL AS STABLE TRACK GOES OUT INTERMITTENTLY. IT CAN HAPPEN WHEN I'M DRIVING OR STARTING THE CAR.

POWER STEERING FAILURE. MY 2015 CHEVY COLORADO TRUCK, WITH 41,153 MILES, HAD A POWER STEERING FAILURE 4 DAYS AGO (MARCH 22, 2019). WHILE TRAVELING ON A DRY, SMOOTH ROAD AT 30 MPH AND WHILE BRAKING, THE STABILITRAK "OFF" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, AS WELL AS A POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING. THERE WAS AN IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER STEERING, AND THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY HARD TO TURN. INITIALLY I THOUGHT THE TRUCK HAD STALLED, BUT IT HAD NOT. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE 2 RIGHT-HAND TURNS AT SLOW SPEED TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC AND INTO A PARKING LOT. I HAD TO USE A LOT OF MUSCLE TO STEER THE VEHICLE INTO THE LOT. I TURNED OFF THE TRUCK THEN RESTARTED AND THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE OFF AND POWER ASSIST RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE TRUCK UNTIL THIS EPISODE. I CHECKED THE VIN NUMBER AGAINST A RECALL LIST AND THERE IS NO CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS VEHICLE (THAT I'M AWARE OF). I'VE PLACED A CALL TO THE CHEVY DEALER SERVICE MANAGER AND I'M A WAITING FOR A RETURN CALL. IN THE MEANTIME MY WIFE IS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE, AND I KEEP BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL WONDERING IF IT'LL HAPPEN AGAIN UNDER LESS FAVORABLE CIRCUMSTANCES.

Mileage: 41,125

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROX 30 MPH AND THE POWER STEERING CUT OFF AND WARNING LIGHTS WENT ON ABOUT SERVICE POWER STEERING. COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER STEERING, BARELY MADE IT TO SIDE OF ROAD. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON AND THE POWER STEERING CAME BACK ON. LUCKILY I WAS GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN IT HAPPENED. ABOUT 2 WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 30MPH AND THE POWER STEERING CUT OUT AND THE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I BARELY ABLE TO PULL TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURNED TRUCK OFF, TURNED IT BACK ON AND POWER STEERING CAME BACK. AGAIN I WAS LUCKY TO JUST BE GOING STRAIGHT DOWN THE SAME HIGHWAY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO CHEVY DEALER IN CERRITOS(PENSKE) AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT GET THE POWER STEERING TO FAIL(I THINK ITS CRAZY TO TRY BECAUSE THAT COULD CAUSE A MAJOR ACCIDENT) AFTER DOING RESEARCH ONLINE SEVERAL OTHER 2015 CHEVY COLORADO TRUCKS HAVING EXACT SAME ISSUE, AND THEY ARE COVERED BY A RECALL BUT MINE IS NOT LISTED IN THE RECALL. WHY ISN'T MINE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS?! I SUSPECT CHEVY IS BEING CHEAP AND NOT WANTING TO PAY, VERY SAD BECAUSE THIS PROBLEM IS SO DANGEROUS!

WHILE DRIVING TWO DIFFERENT ALARMS FLASHES ON DASH SCREEN; 1) "SERVICE STABILITRAK" AND 2) "SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE WITH CARE." VEHICLE THEN LOSE POWER STEERING. I HAVE LEARNED THAT IF I PULL OVER, STOP AND TURN VEHICLE OFF AND THEN BACK ON THE ALARMS CLEAR AND I HAVE POWER STEERING ONCE AGAIN. I HAVE NOTICED THIS SITUATION WHILE DRIVING ON FLAT HIGHWAY AND WHEN VEHICLE IS A LITTLE OFF BALANCE SUCH AS ON A DIRT ROAD. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER, EXPLAINED SITUATION AND REFERRED DEALER TO COMMENTS ONLINE. DEALER STATED THE ALARM HISTORY IS CLEAR AND THEREFORE THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO. I PURCHASED VEHICLE AROUND SEPTEMBER 2018 FROM DEALER AND THIS SITUATION HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 18 TIMES OVER 4 MONTHS OR SO. IT HAS ALARMED, I'VE CLEARED IT AND THEN ALARM AGAIN IN THE SAME HOUR. IT HAS ALSO GONE WEEKS WITHOUT ALARMING. .

Mileage: 62,620

ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE POWER SHUT OFF (2 SECONDS OR SO) AS I WAS APPROACHING STOP LIGHT THEN CAME BACK ON. THIS ISSUE CAUSED ME TO LOOSE STEERING AND RESET ALL ELECTRICAL MEMORY SYSTEMS IN MY TRUCK. CONCERN IS IF THIS HAPPENS WHEN GOING FASTER SPEEDS COULD PROVE DANGEROUS TO FAMILY AND OTHERS. LESS THAT 30K MILES ON VEHICLE.

Mileage: 27,000

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE HAS LOST POWER STEERING ASSIST AND STABILITRAK INTERMITTENTLY ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. ALERTS FLASH ON THE SCREEN AND WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATE AND OFCOURSE THE STEERING WILL JERK BACK FROM A TURN (IF YOU'RE ACTIVELY IN ONE). FORTUNATELY, I HAVE TAKEN PHOTOS IN THE PAST AND ACTUALLY HAD IT OCCUR ON MY WAY TO AN OIL CHANGE TODAY. THEY CHECKED THE CODE IT COMES BACK TO "C0545" WHICH CAN BE FOUND ON GM BULLETIN "PIT5437B" THAT IDENTIFIES THIS PROBLEM BACK IN SEPTEMBER 2015. THE CHEROLET SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHO DIAGNOSED THIS ON MY VEHICLE INFORMED MY SERVICE DEPARTMENT ADVISER THAT THE VEHICLE IS NOT SAFE WITH THE PROBLEM, WHICH OF COURSE WAS RELAYED BACK TO ME. SO, IF A PROBLEM CHEVY IDENTIFIED IN 9/15 MAKES A VEHICLE UNSAFE TO OPERATE, WHY DOES CHEVROLET WANT ME TO PAY $1700 + TAX INSTEAD OF INCLUDING MY VEHICLE IN THE RECALL THAT ADDRESSED THE SAME ISSUE (NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V054000)?

WE PURCHASED A 2015 CHEVY COLORADO IN MARCH OF 2015. MID MAY 2017 WE RAN INTO A HUGE ISSUE WHERE RANDOMLY THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT. SINCE THAT DAY IT HAS BEEN GOING OFF RANDOMLY, AND THE ONLY WAY TO TRY TO RESET IT IS IT TO KEEP TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF UNTIL IT KICKS BACK ON-OFTEN AT THE SAME TIME IT OFTEN SAYS STABILITRAK DISABLED. USUALLY THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, BUT SOMETIMES HAS ALSO BEEN ALREADY THE CASE WHEN THE CAR IS FIRST TURNED ON. WE HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE DEALER'S/SERVICE MANAGER'S ATTENTION EVERY TIME WE GO TO THE DEALER (WE HAVE GOTTEN EVERY OIL CHANGE, SERVICE AND INSPECTION DONE AT A CHEVY DEALER SINCE THE DAY WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) AND THE RESPONSE WE GET IS THAT WE NEED TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN WHILE IT'S "CODED". FRANKLY- THIS IS ABSURD AND NOT AT ALL FEASIBLE.

GM NEEDS TO STEP UP AND RECALL ALL 2015 COLORADOS FOR THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

I WAS DRIVING ONTO AN EXIT RAMP AND FELT THE STEERING GET STIFF. THE INFORMACTION SCREEN ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL FLASHED YELLOW LIGHTS AND THE MESSAGE "SERVICE POWER STEERING, DRIVE SAFELY". I PROCEEDED TO GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL HARDER AND SLOW DOWN TILL I COULD SAFELY PULLOVER. THE BACKUP CAMERA ALSO STOPPED WORKING, WHICH MAKES ME THINK THIS IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUES SINCE THE CAR HAS ELECTRICAL POWER STEERING. ONCE I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON BACK TO NORMAL BUT THIS SEEMS TO BE AFFECTING OTHER 2015 COLORADO AND GMC CANYONS. DUE TO THE WEIGHT AND SIZE OF THIS VEHICLE THIS ISSUE CAN CAUSE A MAJOR AND FATAL ACCIDENT.
