My windows do now go up all the way when I hold the door button up. They go up partially and then back down. I have to make multiple attempts to roll them up. I took it to the dealership and was told nothing was wrong. John jones GM in corydon Indiana dismissed this issue. This has happened while driving and when parked.

During any type of moisture ie (fog, rain) vehicle goes into reduced engine power mode codes from the ECM P2122 and P2138 both relating to app. First time it happened was in rain storm in motion, app pedal was replaced with new oem part but the problem persists. I suspect water intrusion from wiper cowling affecting electric harness. This problem does not exist during dry season. After many hours of online research I have found that this is a widespread problem in Chevrolet vehicles.

The ignition key won't release at times, and has been happening for months now. The engine will turn off, but some accessories remain on. Sometimes I can fiddle with the key or the shift lever, but in a worse case I need to disconnect a battery cable, take the key out, and reconnect the battery. A dealer examination said it was some kind of switch malfunctioning and it would cost over $300. GM/Chevrolet only offered $10 reduction. Many people apparently are having this problem.

While the vehicle remained in motion taking a turn on a roundabout, the vehicles power steering and stabilitrak suddenly turns off causing the vehicle to become very difficult to steer and near impossible to complete the turn. The situation happened twice in roundabouts in the past couple months. One of the times this happened my wife was driving while my two young children were in the vehicle. She described hitting the curb, because of lack of arm strength to pull the wheel. The issue resolves when you can safely park and restart the vehicle. After taking it to the dealer it was confirmed there was an electrical issue with the "steering gear pinion" and appears to be a known safety issue with Chevy Colorado's. the dealer mentioned the cost to replace this electrical component including labor was an upwards of 1800 dollars. For 2015 model years it appears 3000 vehicles were recalled for this exact issue, however a broader recall was not extended to the 2016 model year. After contacting GM it was expressed that they would not cover my vehicle under this recall at this time. I was charged for the diagnostic fee to determine the cause of issue.

My 2016 Colorado has been having problems turning the key off. I am having to put it in reverse and drive several times to get the key out. I have a case number with GM but have to have diagnostics done on my cost as the warranty ran out a few months back. I have researched this and there are thousands of Colorado and canyons that owners are having the same problem. Leave your keys in the vehicle and you have a dead battery. I paid $38,000 for this vehicle and they don't want to fix it unless I pay. We are elderly and concerned we will be stranded somewhere due to this problem.

When turning off the truck, a lot of times my key wont switch all the way off and wont release. The engine turns off and turns back on fine but wont release the key. It seams to do it almost every time I go to turn off the truck and in order to get my key out I have to turn the truck back on and put it im drive then back to park multiple times. I have seen multiple forums that people have this same problem. Our local Chevrolet dealer wont cover this fix since my truck is now out of the 3 year warranty.

This is the second occurrence of the problem I am going to describe. What occurred today was a loss of power steering while taking a right turn off of a side street onto a cross street into traffic. It was extremely difficult to complete the turn, and caused a dangerous situation where I almost crossed the lane into oncoming traffic. Upon straightening the vehicle out I noticed a electronic stability control warning message, then as I continued to drive to look for a safe place to stop, a no power steering message came on stating to drive safely or something to that effect. After I found a location to park, I repeatedly turned the car off and on in hopes of re-setting the systems. This did not have any affect on the faults and the messages remained. I also noticed when I reversed the vehicle, the back up screen gave me a message that there are no projection lines. I slowly drove the vehicle home the rest of the way while "muscling" it around turns. Approximately thirty minutes after I had arrived home, I restarted my vehicle and all systems worked correctly with no warning messages displayed. I had mentioned this was the second time this has occurred, the first time was about three months prior to this incident. I thought that I had accidentally turned the electronic stability control off or something. This instance the vehicle reset after I turned it off and restarted it. To note is this vehicle is extremely well maintained and in very good condition.

Was returning from a 300-mile trip on June 17th when I received a "service 4WD" message on the display console. Called GM dealer service shop and set up appt for June 28th (earliest available date). Three days later, pick-up auto-shifted and locked into 4WD. Next morning, June 21st, drove pick-up to dealer service shop. Technician was able to take pick-up out of 4WD, but said he could not guarantee it wouldn't slip back into 4WD. I continued to receive "service 4WD" messages. On June 27th, while making a left-hand turn across oncoming traffic, pick-up again auto-shifted and locked into 4WD. The wheels locked while in the turn, stalling the vehicle with oncoming traffic barreling down on me. I did not think I would survive. Fortunately, opposing traffic was able to swerve around me, and I was eventually able to limp the pick-up through the left-hand turn and out of direct traffic. Vehicle went into dealer service shop the following morning (June 28th), still locked in 4WD. Service shop had the pick-up for 18 days. Final verdict: Pin tension issues and fluctuating voltages in connector, which miss-signaled the vehicle to auto-shift into 4WD. This is the third time I've had issues with the 4WD on this pick-up. The first time I received the "service 4WD" message at 214 miles. Vehicle auto-shifted and got stuck in 4WD. Dealer service shop repaired issue. At 5,096 miles, the pick-up again issued a "service 4WD" message and auto-shifted into 4WD. Was diagnosed as an internal short; and the 4WD selector switch replaced. This third time was determined to be another internal short. I filed a report with GM. They determined the pick-up was still safe to drive even though the vehicle had auto-shifted into 4WD on 3 separate occasions and even though the 3rd time almost got me killed.

The ignition will not turn completely off which means the key will not come out. I may have to restart the engine, put it in gear and move a few feet, five times to get the key out. The engine itself shuts off, but everything else stays on. This happens frequently. Chevrolet has issued a bulletin saying a dirty key will cause this. How many times in your lifetime have you had to clean a key? this happens after I have stopped and tried to turn the truck off.
