Remember to NEVER buy any 1st year of a new generation vehicle. Wait a few years after they fixed all the kinks. My 2018 Colorado has been solid. Bought it at 30k miles and it has 93k miles now. Haven't had 1 issue and I beat the heck out of it on and off road. Love this truck! Brakes and MPGs are better than a Ranger or Tacoma. Only complain I have is that the OEM leaf springs in the back are bouncy on the non zr2 models. Upgraded to the ARB OME springs and it rides on cloud 9 now :)

Chevy addressed the engine and trans hesitation on the 2015. It took awhile (I think a year, maybe slightly longer) for Chevy to come up with a fix, but after they reprogrammed the computer it’s like having a new truck. No hesitation at all now, huge power instantly going up hills and getting on the freeways when pressing the accelerator pedal unlike when I first purchased it. The dealer recommended not using Costco gas or Arco and use Chevron. That made a difference with engine ping which was mostly noticed going up hills. Now with the engine/trans being reprogrammed and Chevron fuel (regular), my trucks runs smoothly.

@thomaslehmann5981 Жыл бұрын

I had that reflash done by my dealer on my 2016 Canyon 3.6 v6. Unbelievable difference. Always in the right gear even on hilly, twisty blacktop roads. Feels like I gained 50 hp. Gave up maybe 1 mpg.

@carbonking53 Жыл бұрын

Your dealer fed you a lie about Costco gas. Virtually all gas in any given area comes from the same tank farm. Same gas to every station in the area. Chevron and Shell claim they add a detergent to keep you fuel system cleaner. Even that's up for dispute as I have talked to tanker drivers and they say they take the same fuel to all brands' stations. You can add a bottle of $5 fuel system cleaner every 3000 miles to your tank and keep buying Costco or Sam's Club gas imo.

I can’t say I liked the way my 2015 Colorado shifted, definitely setup for max fuel economy with lots of lugging and hesitation to downshift. I switched to the 2.8l turbo diesel in 2018 and I couldn’t be happier. The shift points better match the low-end diesel torque 100%

2015 & 16 , have 6 speed transmissions. They will not break down on you or leave you stranded, they just are always looking for a higher gear for fuel economy. There actually good transmissions. In 17 and above GM went to the 8 speed with the 6cyl. (Not the 4cyl). The 8 speed is crap. Stay away from it. !!! The diesel and 4cyl still to this day, use the 6 speed, and it’s a good transmission. I have a 15 , 3.6 ltr with 6 speed, 160.000 miles, daily driver, bought new, never had 1 problem with. It’s a great truck, contrary to what this guy says.

The nice thing about the 6 speed in the diesel is that it actually doesn’t try to get to 6th gear as fast as possible. It actually behaves more like an Allison and holds lower gears longer than the gas variants.

Everyman Driver don’t be sorry ever, just thank them for their time and or contribution. I came here to leave the same comment and decided to find someone had already made it so that you don’t get hit over the head with the same thing over and over. I’m watching for a few reasons,most of it is because you keep it real, as in realistic, part of it is the Spokane connection, and finally you tend to get facts right. I won’t buy a Colorado because financially you get almost the same amenities for a larger truck when you buy a Silverado, and you end up with more truck behind all those features. In my opinion the only reasons to buy a midsized truck is because you want a 4 cyl engine for a work only truck that you won’t tow with and or because you want to be able to park your vehicle near the front entrance when out shopping. So Dave, I ask you this, when did the Colorado get a newer transmission that had more than six forward gears? I’m asking because you can do better than this if you want to that is.

I love my 2016 Colorado and after 110,000 miles it's still going strong, is reliable and looking good. I do typically garage my truck, so that may help. Since 2016 and 110,000 miles I have never had to replace brake pads or rotors, and I tow a boat and jet skis frequently. I don't baby it and don't abuse it. My first set of Goodyear tires lasted over 60,000 miles and my second set still has plenty of tread. I change the oil using Valvoline Synthetic about every 6,000 miles, have had the limited slip differential serviced once, keep the filters clean and that's about it. In the beginning I had it in the shop for a lot for rattles, and interior panel alignment issues (I'm pretty picky about that). Once I had the AC quit under the extended warranty and the compressor had to be replaced. The transmission is reliable but is a little sluggish when downshifting, especially in traffic. Sometimes I put it in trailer mode to compensate and that works fine. I believe that the 8 speed transmission starting in 2017 alleviated that problem. Short of those few and minor issues, it's been a great truck and I highly recommend it. So don't let this KZfaq video scare you off. Go for it.

@thomaslehmann5981 Жыл бұрын

GM Service bulletin #18 NA-145 will correct all 6 speed transmission issues. You will probably have to pay for it at this point although mine was free. Took about 30 minutes. Totally different truck. Always in the right gear, never hesitant to downshift.

My 2015 (purchased in November 2014) GMC Canyon has gone through several recalls and all fixed so far with no issues. The transmission does shift hesitantly sometimes from second gear up.

Figured the biggest complaints would be the diesel owners who randomly had a piston shell out. Even better is it's either replaced under warranty with no explanation as to why it happened, or you're told to pay up because it was out of warranty. Glad to know each engine might randomly die for an unknown reason the owner can't do anything about, except hope it happens before the engine warranty goes out.

Had a 1997 Chevy Blazer that put me through hell and back with all of the problems. Fast forward to today and the Colorado/Canyon both of which I really like. Of course I'm extremely jaded to even think about either based on what I experienced with GM in general. Very honestly I'm shocked GM is still in business with ALL of the stories you read or hear of. Conversely, I've had a Toyota truck and Honda vehicles (3) and NONE of them had problems whatsoever over 20 years of ownership. Funny, I don't dare tell my wife I like GM Products again based on what we went through. She might actually consider divorcing me she would get that mad...! LOL...!

Thank you for your video, I have a 2018 colorado and having an issue with my transmission, I have taken it back to the dealer once already, said they are aware of the issue and supposedly, changed out the oils. advised me to drive it for 500 miles driving under 55/60 miles. then to return to have it checked, well it did work until now. It is starting all over again, I read one of the forum if the transmission persists they need to replace some type of module, but how do we know if that will take place.

@@eaglezhao3648 1. Just who would you think I’m talking to? Salesmen? NO, but customers in the waiting areas and a number of techs I have as friends. 2. I’m in my second for no other reason than after we both retired and needed only one vehicle, I traded a 2016 Colorado EXT CAB,Z71,4x4, V6, that we traveled over 68,000 trouble free miles, mostly towing a 21’, 4,000lbs travel trailer all over. So with the need for a true four door vehicle, we went out test driving the every mid-sized truck. All were very nice, but the Gladiator was too expensive and had loose steering, the Tacoma had soft brakes and felt like we were sitting on the floor, with no discounts, the Ranger had a great engine and trans, but soft brakes an poor fit and finish, the Frontier actually wasn’t bad, but felt old and had old electronics. None of them except the higher level Gladiators and Rangers had CarPlay an WIFI. But the crew cab Colorado I bought, a 2019, Crew Cab,W/T,4x4, V6, with every option available, including a great 7” touch screen and Apple CarPlay with OnStar tele-metrics an 4 G LTE WIFI, factory tow package, with hitch, wiring, trailer brakes control and G80 auto lock rear differential. Along with an 84 month 100,000 miles bumper to bumper warranty, plus the dealer installed the skid plate package that comes on the ZR2. All for an out the door price of under 33k! That’s $5,000-$10,000 LESS than all the others, more if you wanted WIFI in the Jeep! Afterwards I have removed the dam air dam, added a set of Bilstein 5100 struts/shocks, to add 1.9” front lift/suspension travel. Now only waiting to add more miles out of the stock 265/70-16 Wranglers, to get 265/75-16 Wrangler DuraMax tires, before I’m done. Also we now tow a bigger trailer, a 26’, 5,600 lbs GVWR, that brings us to a CGVWR of 10,400 lbs, that’s higher than all but the Gladiator an Ranger, all tows with ease! Good luck have fun and stay safe and healthy!
