| 2005 | TIRES | ABNORMAL TIRE WEAR AND SUSPENSION NOISES ON CHEVROLET COLORADO 4 X4 2005 MODEL. WITH LESS THAT 20,000 MILES BOTH FRONT TIRES WERE WORN INTO THE STEEL BELTS. I REPLACE BOTH TIRE AND HAD THE FRONT END ALIGNED BY A LOCAL TIRE STORE. 5000 MILES LATER THE INSIDES WERE WEARING AGAIN. THIS TIME I TOOK THE TRUCK TO THE LOCAL CHEVROLET DEALER IN ANDERSON,SC. I HAD SEVERAL ITEMS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE MY ORIGINAL WARRANTY EXPIRED. ONE OF THESE ITEMS WAS THE FRONT END ASSEMBY- SQUEAKS AND RATTLES PLUS THE TIRE WEAR. THE LOCAL DEALER KEPT MY TRUCK OVERNIGHT AND REPORTED THAT I PROBABLY NEEDED TO GET THE FRONT-END ALIGNED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS SERVICE BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL TIRES WERE NOT ON THE TRUCK. THE ORIGINAL TIRES WERE NOT ON THE TRUCK BECAUSE THEY WERE WORN OUT. I HAD VISITED MY CAR STATS.COM TO READ PROBLEMS ASSOCIATED WITH 2005 COLORADO. ONE COMPLAINT NUMBER 10156778 TOLD OF A GM SERVICE BULLETIN CONCERNING TORSION BAR SETUP ON THE COLORADO. I ASKED THE CHEVROLET DEALER TO CHECK SERVICE BULLETIN 1686447. THEY RESET THE ENTIRE FRONT END. I WILL NOT KNOW WHETHER OR NOT THIS FIXED THE SITUATION UNTIL ENOUGH MILES HAVE BEEN PLACED ON THE TRUCK TO CHECK FOR WEAR. I REALLY APPRECIATE THE " MYCARSTATS.COM "WEBSITE. WITHOUT THIS INFORMATION MY LOCAL DEALER WOULD HAVE DONE NOTHING TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR |
