Smooth ride, but lots of issues

2021 Chevrolet Colorado Work Truck 4dr Extended Cab SB (2.5L 4cyl 6A)

Hello Everyone, I purchased a new 2021 Colorado last year and had nothing but problems. Before the truck hit 24,000 miles, two fuel injectors, the fuel pump, and the ac compressor failed and needed replacing. At highway speeds over 73 MPH, the truck vibrates and shakes everything in the cab (similar to running over a rumble strip). The infotainment system also had a bad habit of shutting off and becoming unusable for days at a time. I truly believe my specific vehicle was a lemon in the truest sense, but the sheer number of unrelated failures all over the vehicle didn’t paint the best picture for GM quality control. Single system failures happen, I think we have all dealt with this at some point regarding our personal daily-drivers, but having this number of systems fail independently of one another is a huge problem. How can any Chevy owner feel secure when the potential for the defect lottery to strike down any random system is a constant worry? I have since offloaded the vehicle and purchased from another company, but the damage has been done. The two stars represent the only two redeeming qualities of the truck while I had it: no. 1, the price ($23500 is a steal for a pickup truck nowadays) and no. 2, the ride quality (minus the high speed rumble, this truly was a smooth riding machine). Despite its few positives, I would not recommend buying either the Chevy Colorado or GMC Canyon.

Just a pretty face

This is certainly a very attractive truck but it sort of stops there. Fit and finish is poor. Interior is a profile in cheapness. Noises heater and AC fan. Air bag light comes on rendering the bags useless. There is no center headrest in back seat or viable and accessible hookup for child’s restraint seat. Overall little to know safety features. Carpet pulled apart. Doors hard to close. Power window on driver side binds. This truck build does not reflect well for an American builder.

Love my little truck

I traded in a Volkswagen Tiguan, Which was the 2013 for this truck. I was slightly concerned about fuel consumption and wasn't sure how efficient it was going to be. In all honesty it has amazing fuel efficiency, on average I guess I get 10.5 l per 100 km, Which I find very Amazing considering my tiguan required premium fuel and my average fuel consumption was 9.5 l per 100 km. I purchased the worktruck model, Which for me is perfect because nobody drives the truck but me and it has 4 by 4 , and tow package which was all that I needed really. I thought it was really great that it came with a tonneau cover included in the purchase which really helps my fuel efficiency. I'm very happy with this truck and it was a great decision to trade the tiguan in for it because this vehicle suits our lifestyle much better. I have just over 20000 km on it and and no issues whatsoever except for except for the gas door begin begin to be a bit crooked So I took it to the dealership and they replaced it with no issue because that's covered under manufacturers weren't he.

I work at a Chevy dealership. I was able to get employee pricing as well. For a 2WD, 4 Cyl, crew cab for 30K….MSRP was over 35K (still a lot, but decent nowadays for a truck) this is all I need. I’m over 6 feet tall and can get in/out very easily. No steps needed. The ride is average but I don’t need plush. I’ve driven both the 4 and 6 cylinders and to be honest, around town they are the same. The 4 cylinder has 4.10 gears so it feels peppy. The difference is when they are floored, the 6 cyl pulls harder around 5-6k rpm. That’s it. I average 23-24 mpg. My family fits. I don’t tow. Just trips to hardware stores, Costco, occasional piece of furniture. I live in southeast flat Texas no 4wd needed here. I could drive a big fancy Silverado but, again this has all I need and nothing I don’t. I did get the leather seats, projector headlight package, argent wheels (highly recommend all). Super easy to drive and turning radius is just amazing. Don’t expect the latest and greatest. This is the last year of this body style it just had slight refreshes to kept it updated. I wanted this because all kinks have been sorted. New body style looks incredible but they will (as all new body styles do) have problems. No turbo problems either to worry about with the old model. Just a regular truck with a nice screen I plug my phone into for apple carplay. If you tow or simply want a little more power get the v6. If you need 4wd, then get 4wd. I had equity from my trade in so this will be paid off in about 3 years now, hope to keep for awhile and get my monies worth. These colorados, even 4 cyl, hold their value. Not as good as a Tacoma but pretty good. If this sounds like what you are looking for, go test drive one. THIS IS ALL YOU NEED!!!

Sassy Colorado bison review

I have had my 2021 Colorado bison for almost 1 month. I love but I think my husband likes it more. It looks rugged. Handles great. The front end is gorgeous. The interior is standard. Haven’t tried out the abilities for rock climbing.
