There are 3 owner-reported lighting complaints for the 2016 Chevrolet Coloradoin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
Third break light is out caused by corrosion of the wires. The corrosion is the result of a water leak that is caused by a defective body seal on the roof of the cab.
THE AUTO SENSOR FOR THE HEAD LIGHTS/DASH LIGHTS DOESN'T SEEM SENSITIVE ENOUGH AS ON CLOUDY DAYS IT STAYS IN NIGHT TIME MODE AND I CANT SEE MY DASH.
THE LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS ARE TOTALLY INADEQUATE. WHAT FOLLOWS IS THE CONTENTS FROM TWO EMAILS SENT TO THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER. I ALSO HAVE NIGHT TIME VIDEO THAT ILLUSTRATES THE PROBLEM WHICH ALSO SHOWS THE LOCATION OF THE VEHICLE BY GPS ON GOOGLE MAPS. COMMENTS IN THE EMAIL REFER TO BOTH STATIONARY AND MOVING VEHICLE OBSERVATIONS. I WOULD LIKE TO FIND OUT IF THIS ANOTHER STUPID GOVERNMENT MANDATE THAT PUTS PEOPLE AT RISK.
