2005 Chevrolet Colorado brake problems

SERVICE BRAKES

THIS TRUCK HAS A RECURRING PROBLEM WHERE THE REAR BRAKES FREEZE INTO POSITION WHEN THE EMERGENCY (PARKING) BRAKE IS APPLIED. HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR 10 YEARS SINCE I BOUGHT THE TRUCK NEW. IF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS SET, THE REAR BRAKES WILL NOT RELEASE WHEN THE LEVER IS RELEASED BY THE DRIVER. I AM STUCK WHERE I PARKED WITH A SET OF FROZEN REAR BRAKES. IN ORDER TO GET HOME I AM FORCED TO DRIVE WITH THE REAR BRAKES ENGAGED CAUSING A SEVERE OVERHEATING CONDITION IN THE REAR WHEELS AND POTENTIAL FOR A BRAKE FIRE NEAR THE GAS TANK. GM SAID THERE WAS NOT A PROBLEM AND REFUSED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS STILL A PROBLEM AND GM STILL REFUSES TO FIX THIS PROLEM EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF DRIVERS WITH THIS "FREEZING REAR BRAKES" ISSUE. MY WORK AROUND? I DON'T USE THE PARKING BRAKE. I HAVE A STICK SHIFT AND THE ENGINE COMPRESSION ALONE WILL NOT HOLD THE TRUCK IN PLACE ON A SLOPED DRIVEWAY, SO I HAVE TO CARRY A BLOCK OF WOOD TO PLACE BEHIND THE WHEELS AS MY "PARKING BRAKE". GM NEEDS TO RECALL CHEVY COLORADO TRUCKS FOR THIS SYSTEMIC FAILURE IN THE REAR BRAKE SYSTEMS.

THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH INSTALLED BY CHEVROLET TO REPLACE THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH THAT THEY HAD RECALLED, HAD ALSO FAILED TO WORK. IT STOPPED WORKING SHORTLY AFTER THEY HAD INSTALLED THE NEW ONE, BUT I HADN'T REALIZED BECAUSE I THOUGHT MY BRAKE LIGHTS JUST KEPT GOING OUT. I WASN'T EVEN AWARE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH AND THAT THEY HAD REPLACED IT WHEN I HAD TAKEN IT IN FOR ANOTHER RECALL ISSUE. I EVEN TOLD MY MECHANIC AND HE JUST REPLACED THE BRAKE LIGHTS. IT WASN'T UNTIL MUCH LATER THAT I REALIZED MY LIGHTS WERE ACTUALLY FINE BUT THAT THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH WAS NOT ACTIVATING THEM. I REPORTED THIS TO GMC AND THEY SAID THAT THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT UNLESS I PAID FOR IT OUT OF POCKET ($137 FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, $64 FOR THE ACTUAL REPLACEMENT).

REAR BRAKES "FREEZE" AFTER THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS RELEASED. HAVE TO DRIVE SEVERAL DAYS WITH THE REAR BRAKES SHOES APPLYING FRICTION TO THE REAR DRUMS. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED THE TRUCK NEW IN 2004.

SERVICE BRAKES

UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE AND DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS THE ABS STARTS GRINDING FOR ABOUT FIVE MINUTES, AFTER FIVE MINUTES THE BRAKES STOP AND AN ABS FAULT APPEARS DISENGAGING THE ABS SYSTEM. THE SYSTEM RESTARTS AFTER THE CAR IS RESTARTED AND THEN THE SAME ISSUE WILL OCCUR. SOMETIME WHEN THE TRUCK NEEDS TO MAKE A QUICK STOP THIS WILL BEGIN TO ACTIVATE THE FAULT ISSUE. SOME TIMES THE ISSUE IS SERIOUS ENOUGH TO ENGAGE A TOTAL FAILURE OF THE SYSTEM AND THE PARKING BRAKE LIGHT WILL ALSO COME ON.

ABS FAULT- LOCKED UP BRAKES- COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE- NEED A RECALL BUT KNOWING GM WE WILL NEVER SEE ONE (UNTIL SOMEONE DIES) .... THIS IS CRAZY THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE AND THE LACK OF RESPONSE FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OR GM.

THE ABS AND PARKING BRAKE SIGNAL COMES ON THE DASH AND WILL REMAIN ON FOR 2 TO 3 DAYS. THE BRAKES ALSO LOCK UP AND MAKE A HORRIBLE SOUND. I'M NOT ABLE TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDDLE DOWN BECAUSE IT GETS HARDER TO PUSH AND IT AGITATES. I HAVE OWNED MY COLORADO FOR 6 YEARS AND IT HAPPENS QUITE FREQUENTLY. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER DRIVES MY TRUCK OFTEN.

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, THE ABS FAULT LIGHT COMES ON. THIS IS JUST ONE OF MANY PROBLEMS FOCUSED AROUND THE BRAKES. ABS FAULT LIGHT IS STILL ON, MY BRAKE PEDAL ACTION IS SOFT. BRAKES HAVE BEEN REPLACED. THE RIGHT FRONT OUTER BRAKE PAD WAS STUCK AND WORE DOWN TO THE METAL. ALL THE OTHER FRONT BRAKE PADS HAD GOOD WEAR ON THEM EXCEPT FOR THE FRONT OUTER PAD. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT WITH THE BRAKE SYSTEM ON THESE TRUCKS. I'VE CHECKED A NUMBER OF WEB SITES AND THIS BRAKE PROBLEM IS OCCURRING WITH MANY TRUCKS AND MANY OWNERS IN MANY STATED. I'VE EVEN READ THE SAME COMPLAINTS POSTED THROUGH THE NHTSA .FOR THE SAME BRAKE PROBLEMS PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

THE ABS BRAKES FAULT WILL OCCUR ON OCCASIONS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A MONTH. IT APPEARS OUT OF NO WHERE. THE BRAKES BECAME SOFT AND NOISY. I CAN PULL OVER AND SHUT THE TRUCK OFF, WAIT A FEW MINUTES THEN RESTART AND THE PROBLEM SELF CORRECTS. THIS IS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN NOW. I AM GETTING A LITTLE SCARED THIS MAY HAPPEN WHEN I NEED THE BRAKES.

SERVICE BRAKES

THE ABS IS A CONSTANT ISSUE ON THIS MODEL. IF IT FAILS WHILE DRIVING, WHICH IT HAS FOR ME AS WELL AS A LOT OF OTHERS, IT IS HARD TO STOP THE TRUCK. WHILE YOU TRY TO PUSH THE BRAKE PEDAL THE ABS IS ACTIVE AND FIGHTS AGAINST YOU MAKING IT HARD TO STOP IN TIME. THIS IS AN ISSUE GM IS AWARE OF AND SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A RECALL BEFORE THERE IS A SERIOUS INJURY OR FATALITY.

THE ABS LIGHT COMES ON AND BRAKES GO TO THE FLOOR WITH MINIMUM TO NO STOPPING POWER. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE BRAKES WINE. AFTER THIS HAPPENS BRAKES RETURN TO NORMAL BUT THE ABS LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS ON UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS CYCLED ON/OFF. ONCE THE COMPUTER SEES THAT THERE IS NO ISSUES WITH THE ABS, THE LIGHT GOES OFF. THIS LEAVES YOU TO BELIEVE THAT THERE WAS A "BUG" IN THE ELECTRONICS. THEN WITHOUT WARNING OR A DURATION OF TIME THE PROBLEM COMES BACK. AND THEN THIS PROCESS STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. WHATS HAPPENS WHEN I NEED THE BRAKES TO PREVENT A ACCIDENT? AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE.

THE CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING. I PAID LITTLE ATTENTION TO THIS AS IT DID NOT IMPAIR THE OPERATION OF MY TRUCK. LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT MY BRAKE LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING EITHER. THIS WAS DUE TO A BRAKE LAMP SWITCH FAILURE. A RECALL WAS ISSUED BY CHEVROLET IN 2006, AND MY VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. IN 2010 MY CRUISE CONTROL WENT OUT AGAIN. I KNEW FROM THE FIRST TIME THAT THIS WAS A SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE AND CHECKED MY BRAKE LIGHTS. THEY WERE NOT WORKING. IT WAS THE VERY SAME PROBLEM. THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH HAD WENT BAD AGAIN. I CONTACTED CHEVROLET AND THEY REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR, SITING "NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR". THE LOCAL DEALER DID PAY HALF OF THE REPAIR AS A COURTESY. NOW, IN 2012 THE BRAKE LAMP SWITCH HAS WENT OUT AGAIN AND MY LOCAL DEALER IS TALKING WITH CHEVROLET TO TRY AND GET THEM TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. WE WILL SEE IF THEY STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AND TREAT A LOYAL CUSTOMER RIGHT.

SERVICE BRAKES

THE ABS LIGHT COMES ON AT VERY LOW SPEEDS. THE ABS ACTIVATES WHEN DRIVING ON DRY ROADS. WHEN BRAKING, THE PEDAL VIBRATES AND PUSHES BACK ON MY FOOT, WHILE MAKING A SPRINGING NOISE. I HAVE COME CLOSE TO CRASHING NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE OF THE ABS ACTIVATING AND THE LACK OF BRAKING WHEN THE ABS ACTIVATES. THE COST OF THE REPAIR IS UPWARD OF $1000 PER WHEEL AND THE CODE IS INDICATING BOTH FRONT WHEELS. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT THE ISSUE IS COMMON, BUT GM REFUSES TO ISSUE RECALL. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE OF OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

MY TRUCK STARTED GRINDING EVERYTIME I USED THE BRAKES AND THE BRAKES WOULD NOT STOP YOU. I TOOK IT TO A GM DEALER ([XXX]). THE HOOKED IT UP TO A COMPUTER AND IT SHOWED BOTH ABS SENSORS WERE BAD IN THE FRONT HUBS. THEY SAID IT WOULD BE AROUND &1200 TO FIX THEM SINCE IT WILL TAKE UP TO 8 HOURS FOR THE TYPE OF SENSOR INSIDE THE HUB. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE YOU ARE UNABLE TO STOP, AND THERE ARE LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE ON EDMUNDS.COM COMPLAINING TO GM ABOUT THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM WITH THE CHEVY COLORADO. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT ALL THE COMPLAINTS. THANKS! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

MY 2005 CHEVROLET COLORADO WILL ACTIVATE THE ABS SYSTEM DURING BRAKING ON WARM DRY PAVEMENT AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT STOP. DURING THESE EVENTS THE ABS FAILURE WARNING LIGHT WAS NOT ILLUMINATED. THE BRAKES HAVE FAILED AT 4 MPH AND AT 25 MPH. OTHER TIMES, THE ABS FAILURE WARNING LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED AND THE BRAKES WORK FINE. NO CONSISTENCY AND WILL NOT REPEAT FOR MECHANIC.

PROBLEM WITH MY CHEVY COLORADO. THERE IS A GRINDING SOUND EVERY TIME I BRAKE. IT EVEN DOES IT WHEN I GO FIVE MILES AN HOUR. IT DOES IT EVERY TIME THAT I TAKE A TURN IN THE STREETS EVEN IF I DO NOT USE THE BRAKES. THIS FAULT IN THE ABS SYSTEM WORRIES ME A LOT, BECAUSE I THINK IT'S A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

ABS WARNING LIGHT WILL COME ON IN DRY WEATHER AND ABS WILL ENGAGE DIMINISHING BRAKING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH CHEVROLET AND GMC 2004 - 2006 COLORADO AND CANYONS. GMC WILL REFUSE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. MY PERSONAL CASE IS THAT THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY CLOSED MY COMPLAINT UNTIL I SPEND $100. TO HAVE DIAGNOSTICS RUN FOR THE ERROR CODES. ALL ONE HAS TO DO IS GO TO EDMUNDS.COM AND LOOK AT THE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS OUT THERE FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM, OR ANY OTHER VEHICLE FORUM FOR THAT MATTER. EVEN THE ERROR CODES ARE SHOWN. I FINALLY RELINQUISHED AND TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER TO HAVE CODES READ. JUST LIKE THE FORUMS STATE THE ERROR CODES CAME BACK, C0035, LEFT FRONT SENSOR AND C00220, LEFT FRONT IN RELEASE TOO LONG. SENSOR AND NEW HUB IS ESTIMATED BY DEALER TO BE $762.00!!!!DEALER ALSO STATED GM IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS DUE TO POOR/FLAWED DESIGN. MY VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH IT IS A 2005, IS IN SHOWROOM CONDITION. I SEVERELY BABY THIS TRUCK, EVEN TO THE POINT I PAINT THE UNDERCARRIAGE 3 - 4 TIME A YEAR. THIS IS A TRUE SAFETY HAZARD AND WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT DUE TO THE ABS ENGAGING UNEXPECTEDLY IN COMPLETELY DRY WEATHER AND THE BRAKE PEDAL BEGINS TO THUMP AND BRAKING IS SEVERELY REDUCED.

VEHICLE FOR NO APPARENT REASON WILL ENGAGE ABS WHERE BRAKES WILL PULSATE AND A TEMPORARY REDUCTION IN BRAKES WILL OCCUR. THIS WILL OCCUR WHEN THERE IS NO RAIN, STREETS ARE DRY AND SUNNY. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS OCCURRENCE THE ABS FAULT LIGHT WILL COME ON AND STAY ON UNTIL CAR IS STOPPED, TURNED OFF, AND RESTARTED. TOOK VEHICLE IN TO GM DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID BRAKES WERE FINE. WHEN ABS ENGAGES, FOR NO APPARENT REASON, ONE WILL FEEL BRAKE PEDAL PULSATING AND A LOSS OF BRAKING WHICH CAUSES SOME IMMEDIATE ALARM FOR FEAR OF RUNNING INTO SOMEBODY OR POSSIBLY ALLOWING CAR TO GO TOO FAR INTO AN INTERSECTION WHEN TRYING TO STOP. MANY WEB SITES, FORUMS AND BLOGS, SUCH AS EDMONDS ARE LOADED WITH THESE COMPLAINTS ON 2004 - 2006 COLORADO'S, AS THIS IS NOT JUST A SINGLE OCCURRENCE IN A COUPLE OF VEHICLES. CONTACTED CHEVROLET BUT THEY ALWAYS POINT ME TO DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO READ COMPUTER CODE FOR ERROR AT A COST OF $100 AND THEN WILL PRICE OUT THE COST FOR REPAIR. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD THAT GM IS VERY AWARE OF AND SELECTS NOT TO ADDRESS.

I HAVE A Z71 CREW CAB 4X4 MODEL. THE ABS SYSTEM ENGAGES AT LOW SPEED ON DRY PAVEMENT WITH ZERO WHEEL SLIPPAGE. THIS IS USUALLY FOLLOWED BY THE ABS FAILURE LIGHT ILLUMINATING. THE SYSTEM RESETS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS TURNED OFF AND THE PROBLEM RECURS THE NEXT DAY IN AN ENDLESS CYCLE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM ON SEVERAL WEB FORUMS. ABS BRAKES HAVE BEEN AROUND A LONG TIME AND OTHER MANUFACTURERS DO NOT HAVE THE RECURRING PROBLEMS THAT HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCED WITH THIS VEHICLE. THE TIME IS LONG PAST TO MAKE CHEVY DO A RECALL.
