"The early Chevy Colorado's are junk!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Bought used with low mileage, and nothing but trouble.

O2 sensor, door seals, speed sensor (s), wheel bearing replaced, poor idle, choke problem, wiper motor replacement, radio trouble and speaker problems, rear transmission seal replaced plus rattles, creaks and the like.

General comments?

Before buying, Carfax states it never was in an accident and it had low miles! I test drove for two days and gave a list of what it needed to the dealer who fixed things. Needless to say, my 6 month used car warranty is about up and I just got it back from the last list of fixes it needed. I can see nothing but trips to my local garage to keep this domestic piece of fine engineering on the road.

I thought I was doing the right thing when I unloaded my "99" S-10 ZR-2, but I wish I had it back.

My 1989 Toyota Pickup was the best vehicle I ever owned! But Toyota out-priced itself for me to buy from them. But then again, look what domestic automakers put out! This truck is junk!

You get what you pay for. Sometimes it's better in the long run to pay a little more for something and get better quality.
