2005 Chevrolet Colorado Crewcab LS review from North America
"I'm looking at Toyota"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Box was mounted off to one side when delivered.
Severe rattle behind back seats.
Water leak in cab.
Broken key-less entry key fob.
4 times in for cruise and door locks and window electrical problems.
9 days at dealer to rebuild transmission. (Stick!)
Bow-tie emblem on grille de-laminated.
O2 sensor.
Emergency brakes stuck on.
General comments?
I've been waiting for a small crew cab for years. I don't need four wheel drive or a V6 engine. I thought the Colorado was perfect.
This was my seventh new GM vehicle. The quality problems with this truck and treatment by GM have cured my desire to ever buy another GM product.
