LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES
MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING OFF AND ON CONTINUOUSLY FOR THE PAST SIX MONTHS, HOWEVER IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND IT WASN'T A BIG PROBLEM. RECENTLY, I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO UNLOCK MY TRUCK USING THE KEYLESS ENTRY AND WHEN I AM IN THE VEHICLE THE DOORS WILL NOT LOCK WITH THE LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE DOOR. WHEN DRIVING, AFTER ACCELERATING OVER 20 MPH, THE DOORS USE TO LOCK THEMSELVES, BUT NOW THEY DO NOT. NORMALLY WHEN I PUT MY TRUCK IN PARK, ALL THE DOORS WILL AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK. THIS HAS NOT BEEN HAPPENING. I AM SCARED TO KEEP ANYTHING IN MY TRUCK AND FEAR THAT THIS MIGHT CAUSE MORE SERIOUS PROBLEMS AND EXPENSES. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH OTHER COLORADO'S? IT SEEMS LIKE SINCE I HAVE GOTTEN THIS VEHICLE IT HAS BEEN ONE PROBLEM AFTER ANOTHER AND I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN CHEVROLET. *TR
