2011 CHEVROLET COLORADO Recalls Canada & USA

2011 CHEVROLET COLORADO Recalls — Canada & USA

The 2011 Chevrolet Colorado has 3 recalls, the most serious being a transmission gear position defect that can prevent the engine from restarting and allow the vehicle to roll away when parked, potentially striking people nearby. On certain automatics, the gear indicator can misread the shift position, leaving the vehicle able to move even when the driver believes it is parked. There is also a hood latch concern: some vehicles were built without the secondary hood latch, meaning if the primary latch fails to engage, the hood can fly open while driving and block the driver's view. On the visibility side, the windshield wiper motor crank arm nut may not be tightened properly, which can cause the wipers to stop working and leave the driver without clear sightlines in rain or snow.

Defect

General Motors is recalling certain model year 2010-2012 Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon vehicles manufactured from November 9, 2009, through August 28, 2012, for failing to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 113, "Hood Latch System." The hood may be missing the secondary hood latch.

Safety Risk

If the primary hood latch is not engaged, the hood could open unexpectedly. During vehicle operation, this could obstruct the view of the driver and increase the risk of a crash.

Remedy

General Motors will notify owners and instruct them to inspect their vehicle for the presence of a secondary hood latch. Dealers will replace the hood on any affected vehicles, free of charge. The recall is expected to begin on January 17, 2013. Owners may contact Chevrolet at 1-800-630-2438 or GMC at 1-866-996-9463.
