This truck has had more electrical.

This truck has had more electrical. Braking, battery draining issues than any vehicle I have ever seen. Although you can also include the 1st Colorado I traded after 2 months before trading it for this one that had even more issues. Had it fixed 3 times for the braking recall and it nearly killed us in traffic when it slammed the brakes on in the middle of moving traffic and shut down. I don't trust it or the repairs done. Never driving it again. Had the truck 10 months now and only put 2000 miles on it because of all the issues and not wanting to trust it on a road trip or winding roads in Arizona.

Good Design - Bad Execution

Wind noise in the cab. Multiple problems that are software related. Left me stranded twice before it had 10,000 miles. Still has problems and of the 4 dealers I've tried, none seem familiar with the issues or how to fix them. Wait a few years before buying one to let them get the bugs and service issues worked out.

2023 Chevy Colorado initial impression

Truck was great for the 1st 300 or so miles. After about 7 months of ownership, the truck has been in and out of the shop 8 seperate times for various electrical issues ranging from side detection faliure to the truck blacking out and dying when driving. It is currently in the shop as the check engine light is back on and the 4x4 has not worked in over a month (its the middle of winter). The truck only has 5,000 miles on it, so it has been in the shop more then it has been on the road

Don’t Buy GM!!!!!

I have been waiting 22 WEEKS for parts to fix my windows and mirror detecters. Same answer every week. Don’t know when they will be available. I had my last Colorado for 8 years without any issues. This is insane!!!!!!!

2023 W/T

Traded in 06 Silverado after 35 years driving full size Trucks and couldn’t be happier with this truck. Exterior styling is great and standard interior equipment in base W/T trim is impressive plenty of power also

second one

In Dec.of 2014 i bought a second gen canyon slt long box. I drove that truck just shy of 200,000 miles and had pulled it another 30 thousand. My 2023 Colorado was made in Sept. of 23. being a later build I haven't had any of the early build problems. I love this truck more than my Canyon. The only issue I had was being shipped without the tool kit to change the spare and my jack was bolted to the truck with a nut requiring a wrench to remove it. I'm 72 and have been driving trucks (mostly chevy) since 1972

GM dropped the ball

GM dropped the ball on these. Best looking truck out there. They changed the entertainment format to force you to do OnStar and data plan. No more owners manual. No low range on LT model. Turn signal and wipers on same arm. No choice in engine. Touch screen headlamp control. I was told it had remote start through the Chevy app it does not. Body panel fit isn't good. Many other things I could get into. I will say I've owned 2 new Camaros (1 still with me) and an 11, 14, and 17 fullsize and a 21 Colorado since 2011, all bought new, and this 23 COLORADO is my last new Chevy I'll ever purchase.

2018 Colorado was better

Carpet is awful. Too much technology to understand. Serious XM would not come on when you started truck. I want my old 2018 Colorado back.

Very tight interior

Great looking truck, great performance but the interior is really cramped in the front as well as the back. The back seating is extremely tight and cramped and could not seat an adult or teenager comfortably. The truck needs to be wider and longer. Not a midsize truck it is a small truck. If you are looking for roominess in the interior look elsewhere.
