Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have a 2018 Colorado 4x4 with 51K miles. Purchased with 28k. When driving at normal highway speed, get drive train shudder when increase torque is needed (hill, ramp, etc.). Only happens in overdrive. When tow/haul is activated shudder does not occur. It feels like transmission and/or drive shaft is about to fall off. I have not attempted repair due to numerous concerns voiced on this site and class action lawsuit now in progress. No warning lights or messages.”
