2017 CHEVROLET COLORADO Electrical System Problems

October 2025----problem with 2017 Chevrolet Colorado WT with 2.5L engine and 6 speed automatic. It has 57,000 miles on it. Original owner--bought new. "StabiliTrak" warning light came on when I first started the pickup in the morning and stayed on. Then a message appeared saying that there could be a steering issue or a control issue operating the pickup and to take it to the dealer for service. Colorado starts normally and runs normally. Only issue is the warning light for the StabiliTrak is on constantly. I read in the manual that TCS(traction control system) and the StabiliTrak system have been disabled. The owner's manual states "The vehicle is safe to drive; however, you do not have the benefit of StabiliTrak, so reduce your speed and drive accordingly." Have a dealer service the system. I have had no safety issues or risky situations. Have about 300 miles added since it occurred. It has not been inspected yet by a dealer.

Intermittent loss of power. Power returns when wiggling the battery

Stabilitrak error intermittently while driving accompanied by loss of power steering and electrical

Stabilitrek error popped up and traction control lights came on and there was a sudden (brief) loss of electrical power when I turned on high beams

Stabilitrak error and traction control lights came on and electrical power flickered off and on when I rolled up passenger window

I cuts out and shuts off driving in a parking lot at 10 miles an hr and while driving on the freeway going 65. Started 6 months ago but has gotten worse. The computer system on dash goes black and will start randomly changing stations, or freeze and now it's changing on the steering column and engine light is on

I believe there should be a recall for the KNOWN chafing issues for the engine wire harness. This happened to my truck this past year around September/November of 2024 and didn't get a fix until June 25. There are TSB's out for other models as well as mine regarding the wire chaffing. it shorts out intermittently and cause all kinds of warning lights to go off, (check stabilitrak, check 4x4, etc) the vehicle usually did a bunch of stop and go jerks when it would do this then go into limp mode. I even had it stall completely on me and the steering wheel locked up. I think they had to disconnect the battery or something to get the key out. I've been on several different forum pages trying to find the issue and I have seen it happen on relatively new vehicles as well. Lucky for them they are under warranty but dealers still giving them a hard time on this issue. I believe this poses a safety issue and there should be a recall on this. Besides that, no one should have a perfectly good vehicle and have to pay 4000-7000 dollars to replace a wire harness because of a manufacturer design defect which seems will eventually cause this issue though it had happened on newer models as well. the bulletin #specific to my vehicle is PIT5626D but there are other bulletins for other engines/models

The contact owns a 2017 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the key was difficult to remove from the ignition. The failure occurred on several different occasions. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was drivable and was taken back to the residence. A dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 70,000.

Mileage: 70,000

The parking brake lever contacts a piece of the wiring harness/bundle during operation. Wear on the wiring lead to exposed wires in the bundle. For me, this resulted in an electrical short that rendered the dashboard inoperable. This is a safety hazard as the entire dashboard becomes inoperable, and also a potential fire hazard.

Truck started having electrical issue after finding a dead squirrel in the engine. Taken to dealership 9/2/2023 and was told the wiring harness needed replacement. Left the truck there for 2.5 months with no repair so we brought the truck home in December 2023 and asked them to call us when they got the part. Had a rainstorm the following day and the truck tried to start itself, wipers running, lights flashing, and smell of something burning. Disconnected the battery and had truck towed to Beach Chevrolet Dealership. Damage was worse than they originally thought and we still needed a new wiring harness. That particular wiring harness has been discontinued by GM and they are unable to find the part anywhere. The truck is still at the dealership and it will be 8 months on May 2, 2024. State Farm refuses to total the truck and we have no idea when our vehicle will be repaired. Have contacted GM customer Disservice repeatedly with no resolution in site. What recourse do we have?

Power steering stops working on and off out of no where no engine light until power steering is actually not working. Transmission shudders also which both are known issues to these year model trucks.

Front Passenger airbag always showing it is "OFF" whether someone is sitting in seat or not. The dealer wouldn't fix this unless I paid a diagnostic fee of $185. Also Radio infotainment system doesn't respond to touch, however it has a mind of its own, blaring radio volume up and changing channels on its own. Very distressing and distracting while driving. Also a $185 diagnostic for looking at this as well. I had purchased an extended warranty and extended maintenance agreement. The dealer told me they won't fix it unless I pay for the diagnostics and they won't have the extended warranty company fix it under my original extention warranty agreement. This all happened before my vehicle had 26000 miles.

Radio system/touch screen control beeps repeatedly (like someone is selecting buttons on the control head), changes screens and modes by itself while driving. Very distracting while driving.

The computer screen jumps around with the dash data when you are driving. The radio changes functions and channels. This is a huge distraction and dangerous when driving. Additionally, when you turn the radio off the screen keeps jumping around to different functions and channels.

The radio will change stations, switch apps, make phone calls all on its own. The drivers info center, located on the gauges will switch constantly to the radio setting, removing the speed that I'm traveling at. This is super dangerous as it is a distraction from driving. Its so bad I have to turn the radio off to drive safely.

The touch screen for the radio and steering controls for the radio on the steering wheel start changing channels on the radio, the touch screen starts clicking, and going through the stations, satellite stations, and flipping through all of the home screens. When trying to stop this will the truck is running is a hazard because the touch screen does not work, nor does the volume or channel controls on the steering wheel work. The clicking and changing of stations and screens is a hazard when on the freeway because of a distraction that cannot be turned off. Even when turning off the radio the clicking and touch screen continues to roll through all of its menus making noises. This starts to happen about 5 minutes into operation of the truck. Additionally, the menu on the dash, not the touch screen, starts changing menus and sticks on the radio stations and then you cannot view the mileage or amount of gas left. Nothing stops these actions except for turning off the truck for a few minutes.

2017 Chevy Colorado. The key will not come out of the ignition after you turn the truck off. You can restart it, move it, take the tension off the steering wheel and it still does not come out. I had to leave the key in the ignition while I went to work and then the battery was dead.

Performed a full pre-repair scan Health Check with the GM GDS2 scan tool. Fifty-three fault codes were reported through 11 modules via "Automotive electronics is one of the major problems in this areas. Understanding the control buses that have replaced wiring looms in vehicles. CAN bus is the most important of these – but many vehicles now use both CAN and LIN buses for cost reasons. Solutions for both areas. at this time—recommendations and fault codes are listed below. At the time of scan National Highway Traffic Safety Administration website was unavailable, and a recall search was unable to be performed. Per GM ADAS calibration recommendations, if an ADAS feature is affected by the collision repair, GM may recommend calibration of affected components after repairs are complete. Please refer to GM document 5577683. These items may include Frontview Camera, Long Range Radar, Park Assist Sensor, Curb View Camera, Surround Vision Camera – Analog and Night Vision Camera

2017 Colorado All of a sudden I was just driving down the road going 55mph, and my truck shut off. No warning light just died completely. I almost got rear-ended by the car behind me. I could not start the truck back up at all. If I had been in construction zone someone could have seriously got injured or killed, Huge safety issue. I had the truck towed to the chevy dealer, it took the sever days to find out the issue. The wiring harness behind the motor, was rubbing on the fire wall, causing several wires to become exposed and short out. Dealer even if they put a new wiring harness back in it would have the same problem, based off where it is located. I trying to make sure no one gets killed and recall issued. I contacted chevy customer support they didn't seam interested is fixing a safety issue, no there problem after warranty are over.

Wire chafing on AC lines causes reduce engine power while driving down the highway with vehicles immediate shut down to 35 miles an hour. Poses an extreme safety hazard to all drivers. As well wire chafing prevents truck from starting

My keys continue to get stuck in the key ignition slot. It doesn't matter if I am parked in a flat, incline or decline position. I have to lock and unlock my vehicle several times and sometimes it works. I live in Texas and it is unbearable to have to do this over and over by turning on and off the vehicle. Meanwhile, my child is baking in the car seat while this is taking place. It has also drained my battery while I had no choice but to run into work so that I wouldn't be terminated. Only to come back after 20 minutes to a drained battery and then having to call someone to jump start my vehicle. I am fed up and wished I had never bought this Chevy truck. So much for American made vehicles! My vehicle started having this issue around 45,000 miles and now I am at 59,850. The dealership stated they are months behind and cannot see my truck for at least a month. They want to run a diagnostics test and charge me for it.What good would that be if the power train warranty is over at 60,000? But they claim it's not a power train issue and that they are familiar with this chronic issue because they see it all the time,yet no recall by Chevy? UPSET SINGLE TEXAS MOM

KEY WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN PARKING ON A REGULAR BASIS. I WAS TOLD THE KEY WAS DIRTY, THEN I WAS TOLD IT WAS A PROBLEM IN THE GEAR SHIFT. IN MY CASE WHEN THE KEY GETS STUCK, I FIND THAT I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE DOOR ALARMS AND OTHER ELECTRICAL ITEMS TO DO THEIR "BATTERY PROTECTION SHUT-DOWN" THAT THEY DO AFTER TEN MINUTES OF CONTINUOUS USE, THEN THE KEY COMES OUT.

IM HAVING TROUBLES WITH THE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM OF MY 2017 CHEVROLET COLORADO, 4X4 V6. THE SCREEN IS OFF, AND THE TURN SIGNALS DOES NOT MAKE SOUND WHEN I ACTIVATE IT.

I TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AT OR AROUND 12 NOON ON 6JULY 2020 FOR THE 15 MAXIMUM TIME ALLOWED TO TEST DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS DELIVERED AT 10 PM...THE NEXT MORNING I NOTICED THE SERVICE THEFT DETERRENT SYSTEM LIGHT WAS ON AND IT WOULD NOT TURN OFF. AFTER RESEARCHING IT WAS DETERMINED THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT ISSUE ME A MASTER FOB AND THIS COULD HAVE CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO SHUT DOWN AT ANY TIME (WHICH IT DID 3 TIMES IN A 5 DAY PERIOD) . THE VERY NEXT DAY I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE STALLED IN TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY AND JUST STOPPED. THE STALLING AND VEHICLE CUTTING OFF IN TRAFFIC HAPPENED 2 ADDITIONAL TIMES IN 5 DAYS BEFORE I CONTACTED THE DEALER...I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS THE BATTERY BECAUSE OF LACK OF POWER IN THE VEHICLE BUT I WAS INFORMED AFTER A BATTERY TEST IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR ... THE ALTERNATOR HAD AN OUTPUT OF ABOUT 15.8 WHICH I WAS INFORMED IS A DANGEROUS LEVEL THE TRUCK COULD CATCH ON FIRE IS NOT FIXED. I CONTACTED THE DEALER THE NIGHT OF THE 10TH AND CALLED ON 11 JULY 2020 AND SPOKE TO SERVICE MANAGER SAMANTHA SHE INFORMED ME SHE HAD PASSED THE EMAIL TO HER MANAGER. I DID NOT RECEIVE A RESPONSE VIA EMAIL OR TELEPHONE.

THE VEHICLE WAS SOLD AS IS (WHICH I HAVE NO ISSUE WITH) THEREFORE MY COMPLAINT IS THE DEALER IS SELLING VEHICLES THAT ARE DANGEROUS AND THEY HAD TO KNOW THE VEHICLE HAD ALTERNATOR ISSUES AND DIDN'T FIX IT. INSTEAD SOLD IT AS IS RISKING THE LIVES OF ANYONE IS THE VEHICLE OR AROUND IT. RICARDO TEXT ME AS IF I WAS COMPLAINING ABOUT $200 I PAID $18000 CASH $200 IS MY LAST CONCERN HOWEVER I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY LIFE AND THOSE AROUND ME

TWICE NOW MY 2017 W/~41000 MILES HAS GONE INTO INSTANT, NO WARNING OR GRACE PERIOD, BUT AN INSTANT DROP TO A FORCED 10 MPH IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC, THIS LAST TIME ON A HIGHWAY WITH NO SHOULDERS DURING RUSH HOUR. THE THREE CODES THROWN THE FIRST TIME (I DON'T HAVE THE CODES FROM THE SECOND TIME BUT THE DEALER IS ORDERING A NEW ECM BASED ON THE U0401 CODE): RC (RADIO CONTROLS): B1325 - CONTROL MODULE POWER CIRCUIT - LOW VOLTAGE EBCM (ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL MODULE): U0401 - INVALID DATA RECEIVED FROM ENGINE CONTROL MODULE - INVALID DATA ECM (ENGINE CONTROL MODULE) P200C DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF) HIGH TEMPERATURE ALONG WITH THE CODES THE CHECK ENGINE, STABLITRAK, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS CAME ON - HOWEVER BRAKING WAS NOT AFFECTED! REGARDLESS, THIS PROGRAMMED 'LIMP' MODE IS INSANELY RECKLESS WITH TOTAL DISREGARD FOR THE SAFETY AND WELFARE OF THE VEHICLE OCCUPANTS, THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO SAFE PLACE OR REASON TO DELIBERATELY CRIPPLE A VEHICLE WHILE IN TRAFFIC! SOME EUROPEAN MANUFACTURES AT LEAST GIVE YOU A WARNING WITH SEVERAL ENGINE RESTARTS TO LET YOU DRIVE NORMALLY TO SAFETY AND THEN A DEALER FOR SERVICE ' BUT APPARENTLY EMISSIONS LAWS IN THE US TAKE PRECEDENCE OVER HUMAN LIFE. LIMP MODE CAN BE DISABLED FOR EMERGENCY VEHICLES BUT THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS ILLEGAL FOR THEM TO DO IT FOR ME. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN GREAT BUT LIMITED TO WHAT THEY CAN DO BECAUSE OF GM REQUIREMENTS. THEY ARE CURRENTLY LOOKING INTO THE PROBLEM AND HAS ORDERED A NEW ECM AS A SECOND PHASE IN TROUBLESHOOTING THE ISSUE (FIRST WAS REPROGRAMMING THE ECM) HOWEVER THERE IS STILL NO EXCUSE FOR FORCING A VEHICLE INTO LIMP-MODE WHILE IN USE - I HAVE LOST ALL FAITH IN THIS VEHICLE AND GM AND CANNOT TRUST IT FOR MY OWN YET FAMILIES SAFE USE.

I OWN A 2017 CHEVY COLORADO Z71 4X4. ONCE BACK ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER OFF-ROADING ON THE BEACH, WHILE FORWARD DRIVING AT ROUGHLY 50 MPH I RAN OVER A CHOPPED PIECE OF FIRE WOOD IN THE ROAD. THE PIECE OF WOOD CONTACTED THE SKID PLATE, WHICH THEN COLLAPSED THE HOLLOW SKID PLATE BRACKET WELDED TO THE FRONT CROSS SECTION/AXLE OF THE CHASSIS, WHICH THEN FLATTENED INTO THE PLASTIC POWER STEERING MODULE(S) CONNECTED TO THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) RACK. THIS CAUSED IMMEDIATE LOSS OF POWER STEERING, LOSS OF ABS VEHICLE CONTROL, LOSS OF ELECTRICAL CHARGE FROM THE ALTERNATOR TO THE BATTERY, LOSS OF ABILITY OF THE VEHICLE TO SHOW CORRECT SPEED, RANDOM TRANSMISSION SHIFTING (INTO AND OUT OF GEARS, AS WELL AS THROWING VEHICLE INTO NEUTRAL) AS WELL AS INTERMITTENT LOSS OF ALL CABIN ELECTRONICS (INCLUDING TACHOMETER RELAYING SPEED AND RPMS, ODOMETER, FUEL GAUGE, BATTERY VOLTAGE GAUGE, ETC.). DUE TO THIS BEING A ROAD HAZARD INCIDENT, AS WELL AS POOR MANUFACTURER DESIGN/PLACEMENT OF A PLASTIC ELECTRIC POWER STEERING RACK, I WAS FORCED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED AND FILE A CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. REPAIRS HAVE BEEN ONGOING FOR 3 WEEKS AND ARE STILL INCOMPLETE AS THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER CANNOT RECOGNIZE THE NEW OEM PART. ATTACHED PHOTOS SHOW DAMAGE WITH THE SKID PLATE REMOVED. MATHEMATICAL MEASUREMENTS WILL PROVE THE COLLAPSIBLE BRACKET, IF FLATTENED IN A SIMILAR DIRECTIONAL MANNER, WILL MOST DEFINITELY MAKE CONTACT WITH AND IMPACT THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING RACK. THIS PLASTIC RACK ALSO INCLUDES OTHER MODULES THAT IMPACT THE AFOREMENTIONED PERFORMANCE ISSUES. GM HAS FAILED TO ACKNOWLEDGE MY CONCERN OF DESIGN AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AND CONACT WITH THEIR
