Colorado 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 1,329 miles
The contact owns a 2007 Chevrolet Colorado. The vehicle makes a grinding noise in the ignition/starter when attempting to be started. When the engine is on, the vehicle continuously attempts to restart itself. The contact stated that the starter and the bender spring have failed. While driving 30 mph, the contact heard a squeaking noise when the brakes were engaged. The failures began on December 23, 2006. The dealer was unable to diagnose the cause of failure on several occasions and insisted that the vehicle was operating normally. After cleaning the vehicle, the grill and the driver side headlight began to detach from the vehicle. The grill and headlight have been repaired. The contact was unable to close the driver side door, but the dealer made the repair. The contact has an appointment with the dealer on May 8, 2007 in another attempt to diagnose the cause of failure. The current mileage is 6,000 and failure mileage was 1,329.
