My vehicle and many others as well suffer from a intermittent problem of the pass lock security safety feature. There are times when inserting the key in the ignition the vehicle would not start because the pass lock fails to recognize the key. When this happens a security lock indicator on the dash flashes. To overcome this the ignition has to be placed in the 'off the on ' position and let it remain so for at least 10 minutes. After such time the vehicle will star until a undetermined time the discrepancy occurs again. Besides my vehicle I have found this condition to exist on many owners on this type and other GM models as well and as far as I can tell from 2006 and on. It's a inconvenience plus if for some reason there was a emergency of some kind the owner would not be able to start it's vehicle and it would not know when or where it's it is a intermittent problem. So you can be on street, on a curve off the highway or any area stationary. The Chevrolet high resolution team is aware of this problem and does not consider it important enough to address this other than having the ignition lock housing replaced, ignition key replaced, and having new key programmed.

15% of the time my 2011 Chevy Colorado will not turn over. It is completely sporadic. Sometimes it won't start first thing in the morning, making me late to work. Sometimes, I get all the way to my destination, or to a gas station and when I turn the truck off and turn it back on it won't turn over. Everything else seems to be working fine, my radio, my air conditioning, all my lights function just as they should but my motor will not turn over. There are no clicking noises, or other starting noises when I try to turn the key. I have sat and tried to start the car 5-100 times, nothing. I thought maybe is was user error, nope. Nothing I have done will start my truck. After waiting 20 minutes to an hour if I try to start it, it starts right up like there were no previous issues. I work in one of the most dangerous cities in America. My biggest fear is having an unreliable vehicle. I have brought it to the dealership 9 different times. I have had the truck for 6 months, and it has been at the dealership for 7 weeks non-consecutively. When I bring my truck to the dealership they tell me that they can not "recreate the problem" which makes me believe they do not care to recreate it because they have had it for almost 2 months, then the second I get it back it is still not starting 100% of the time. I have looked online and I have come across many stories similar to mine. They also all say that this should be a recall. I have gotten the better business bureau involved in my case, and I am dreading contacting an attorney just because I love GM. I will never buy a vehicle that is not GM. I just need a reliable truck.
