Adaptive cruise control problems by model year
What owners say
I started my truck and could not get it out of park then brake lights and cruise control do not work.
Brake lights and cruise control have always worked. Tuesday on the way to work brake lights stopped, cruise control stopped. I purchased truck brand new while living in al,it was built in louisiana and shipped from ga. I asked dealer to search for recalls, but nothing. Had brake switch replaced at $195.00. Every state I've registered vehicle in al,az and mn license bureau had problem finding VIN in system.
While driving on the freeway, the truck accelerated to 90 MPH, and only stopped accelerating when I applied the brakes. Cruise control switch was in the off position. Chevrolet dealership said it was not a problem.
I was driving on the highway and noticed my cruise control wouldn't come on. I figured it was a fuse and would get to it after work. When I pulled into work a coworker who was behind me told me I had no brake lights. Checked all fuses, all were fine. Took the truck to a chevrolet dealership and was told the brake switch and/or wires had burnt up and needed to be replaced. I paid over $500 for the repair. Later found out there was a recall for this incident, but it did not cover my VIN. I called gm and complained and was told there was a "special coverage" so they reimbursed me a portion of my repair costs. Fast forward to february 10, 2014 and I have the same issue. No cruise but more importantly no brake lights. I called gm to complain again and was again told my VIN does not fall under the recall (recall no. 09049). Was also told the special coverage expired 4 months ago.

I was driving on the highway and tried to use the cruise control and it didn't work. My brake lights were also not working. I didn't know my brake lights were not working until I had to slow down for a car in front of me and a car behind me almost hit me. It wasn't until I got off the expressway and a man told me my brake lights were not working. I checked the fuses and they are all in working order. I called my local dealership and the told me that my 2007 chevy colorado was not part of the recall even though there was a recall for this sort of problem.

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 chevrolet colorado. While driving 70 MPH with the cruise control activated, the engine shut off completely. The dealer could not find any failure. A week later, the vehicle lost power again and was returned to the dealer. The dealer placed a recorder in the vehicle. The vehicle lost power twice afterwards and the recorder was able to receive two snapshots of the system. The dealers then acknowledged the failure. From the data that was received, the vehicle then began to shut off while the cruise control was deactivated with the engine running. The contact notified the state attorney general's office to file a lemon law claim. He was advised to call the federal safety agency. Presently, the vehicle has been at the dealer for over two weeks.
