Summary: General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2024 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon vehicles. The lock ring that secures the fuel pump to the fuel tank assembly may not have been fully locked during assembly, which can result in a fuel leak during a crash.

Consequence: A fuel leak in the presence of an ignition source increases the risk of a fire.

Remedy: Dealers will inspect and fully lock the fuel tank lock ring as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters are expected to be mailed August 13, 2024. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020, or GMC Customer Call Center at (888) 988-7267. GM's number for this recall is N242451330.

Summary: General Motors, LLC (GM) is recalling certain 2024 Chevrolet Colorado vehicles. Incorrect tires may have been installed that do not match the tire label, and the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) may provide inaccurate information for the installed tires. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 110, "Tire Selection and Rims" and 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."

Consequence: A tire label that does not accurately reflect the installed tires may result in the installation of incorrectly sized tires. In addition, the TPMS may not warn the driver of a drop in tire pressure. Both of these scenarios can increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy: Dealers will inspect and replace the tires as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 19, 2024. Owners may contact Chevrolet customer service at 1-800-222-1020. GM's number for this recall is N242444030.

When coming to a stop the vehicle slams into 1st gear raising the RPMs and pushing the vehicle forward even when the brakes are being applied. No warning lights no other malfunction or symptoms. Has occurred this I first purchased the vehicle new in January of 2025. Has almost caused collisions. Never took it to the dealership due to the information I've gathered if was a common issue but I believ...

My truck only has 16,600 miles on it and the rotors and brakes are already shuddering. The dealership told me I needed my front and rear brakes and rotors replaced. It is beyond ridiculous when my last truck a 2020 Chevy Colorado had no rotor or brake problems and have 90,000 miles when I traded it in.

At 20,300 miles, severe chassis and steering wheel vibration occurred during high-speed highway descents while braking. Safety risk: reduced steering control at highway speed. The vehicle was inspected by a franchised Chevrolet dealer in Lakewood, CO. The technician's written service notes document rear rotor Lateral Runout (LRO) of 0.006 inches against GM's maximum allowable specification of 0.0...

The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brake pedal depressed to the floorboard and was spongy. Additionally, the navigation system shut off unexpectedly, and the Forward Collision Avoidance warning light illuminated, causing the seat belt to tighten while the vehicle was in park. The contact also received OnStar alerts that th...

The upper radiator hose on some huge percentage of these trucks fail (mine has failed at just over 20K miles). You can check the Colorado Chevy forum, youtube, etc., et al, and find plenty of instances where this has failed. As this is the cooling system, it can cause the engine to overheat and potentially ruin the engine. The flaw seems to be an engineering issue with the rubber seal they use (in...

A few weeks ago the heat started performing intermittently, about half the time only blowing out cold air even with the temperature set to 85. I live in Minnesota and we have had numerous weeks of below 0 temperatures. Lo and behold, I find out there are widespread reports of the O ring seals on the radiator and heater hoses failing and causing coolant leaks. These leaks are significant enough to ...

there have about 4 incidents where my vehicle has engaged the automatic emergency breaks while I’m driving, even though there are no cars around me close enough to cause that reaction. called 911 on most recent incident to get medical evaluation to check chest from seat belt sudden locking

Upper radiator hose leak with 36,750 miles(just out of warranty) 3 days after it was at dealer for oil change and replacing the heat shield. Apparently VERY common in these vehicles which says they are aware but haven't FIXED the issue, should be a RECALL!!

Copied this from a forum and it's the same thing for me. I'm editing to fit my unique situation. This is an $800 repair at my dealer for a $40 part! 5 day backorder so I'm without a vehicle. The upper radiator hose on some huge percentage of these trucks fail (mine has failed at 37500 miles). You can check the Colorado Chevy forum, youtube, etc., et al, and find plenty of instances where this has...

The contact owns a 2024 Chevrolet Colorado. The contact stated that the roof of the vehicle had several dents. The contact became aware that several similar vehicles had the same dents to the roof. The contact referenced NHTSA ID Number: 11014388 (STRUCTURE) as the cause for the failure; however, the VIN was not included. The dealer was notified of the issue. The vehicle was not repaired. The manu...

Check engine light appeared and fans kicked on loudly. Stayed on even after shutting the vehicle off. Vehicle is a 2024 with only 28,639 miles on it. Upper radiator hose was leaking and would not seal. Took to dealership for repair and replacement. Was informed it was the 3rd Chevy Colorado this week with this issue! Was stunned. Further internet research found a staggering number of forum posts w...

upper radiator fitting is leaking, Chevy is replacing the radiator and the hose

The truck has 28,000 miles and has been only driven for commuting on interstate conditions. While traveling on an 80 mile commute, I experienced complete engine failure while traveling at 75 MPH (the posted speed limit is 80). As the engine failed, I was placed in a dangerous position as there is no pull-off and traffic was heavy. I was stranded in winter conditions with no ability to heat or s...

Radiator hose failed in under 1.5 Years on 2024 Chevy Colorado. Parts are back ordered for months, this is clearly a manufacture defect that could lead to overheating the engine and engine damage and failure

Not sure if this is your typical safety issue. Voice activation button @ RH side of steering wheel failed approx. one month after vehicle purchase. This button allows one to call out, use GPS, vehicle functions, radio, etc "handsfree". Message @ infotainment screen stated "click here to purchase subscription" which I was not made aware of by anyone involved w/ sale. Cell phone will link up w/ veh...

See attached document for complaint.

Even when new, the truck would abruptly down shift from 2nd to 1st, every now and then. Then with about 3000 miles on the truck its started doing every time, once the transmission is warmed up. It seemed to get better and then started again with about 4000 miles and kept getting worse. It got so bad that the truck would shudder and it almost felt like I was getting rear ended and you could hear...

problem since day 1. Instrument cluster goes dark frequently. no speedometer or gauges are illuminated. may stay dark for long periods of time and other times it is shorter periods. sometimes smacking it will bring it back up. sometimes not. cluster changed 2 times by dealer. problem continues. code read problem with harness connector showed up once but they cleared it and it hasn't come back. pan...

Right turn signal auto cancel activates the left lane change signal resulting in oncoming traffic assuming a left turn to be performed but this vehicle continues straight resulting in a collision hazard. This has been happening since the purchase of the vehicle 2.5 years ago but dealer is unwilling to fix.

The front brake pads are showing extremely uneven ware. Outer brake pad is at 2mm and the inner is at 7mm due to a spring issue on the front caliper. There is also a lip on the left rotor. The tech used 25-NA-365 to help identify the issue. However, my VIN is not covered under this repair. The result is a $500 out of pocket repair for something that should be a mfg defect and not wear and tear. As...
