Description of the problem | I have a 2016 chevy colorado 4 cylinder truck at the dealer again. Had it in about 8-10 months ago on the engine reviving real high when coming to a stop. They said it was probably the hill assist system and nothing they could do. Now it's chronic. It can rev to 2200 rpms as i come to a stop. I have to kick it in neutral to keep from hitting a kid in a crosswalk or the car in front of the. Both feet on the brakes. And, when i put it in neutral, it can rev up to 4000 rpm's. It's back at the dealer now and they don't have any service bulletins on it. I test drove a v-6 300 hp model while there and it did the same thing 2 times and the salesman didn't notice, but it never got over 1800 rpms. So,they haven't fixed it. But they're sincerely tried but i think it's the system not the dealer. The hill assist system doesn't pick up on if you're level or going down a hill anymore. Just revs up, and it's in 1st gear when coming to a stop. The torque is tremendous on the brakes. It's an accident waiting to happen. I don't think the dealer is negligent in anyway, i think it's the computer design on that hill assist has gone haywire on us. |
