What Owners Say
"Every time the truck is running I have the problem with the screen freezing or changing apps by itself"
Anonymous, FL (2018 Chevrolet Colorado Z71 3.6-L V6)"My unit often displays in either Spanish or French and freezes. I cannot control. Constantly changes display. Occurred within a month of warranty lapse. Dealer wants $200.00 to diagnose and replacement is approx $2000.00. Colorado Forum online contains numerous examples of unit failures and GM refusal to recall or fix at no cost."
Anonymous A., TX (2018 Chevrolet Colorado LT 3.6-L V6)"A few times throughout any given day, the touch screen suffers from random "phantom" clicks and movements. On the map screen, the screen will move around or suddenly start giving me directions to some random location on the dropdown menu. On a music player screen, the current song will skip back and forth or a random song or playlist will be selected. On the home screen, icons will behave as though they have been "long pressed" and move around. When this happens, the touch screen no longer reacts to my actual fingers so the only way to stop it is to shut off the infotainment system. This started about 6-8 months ago. I thought it was due to dirty fingerprints on the screen, so I've tried cleaning the screen. I've tried alcohol, window cleaner, and plain water. Sometimes this does not help at all, sometimes it seems to help for a few hours. I have not taken this in for repairs so the problem has not been resolved yet"
Anonymous A., CA (2018 Chevrolet Colorado LT 3.6-L V6)"The system switches to various applications at random constantly. CHEVROLET charges $900 for a new system. They also offered a software update that might not fix it for $300. We chose neither option."

"This has been an ongoing problem almost since the beginning. It happens randomly when driving - suddenly unable to change radio station or switch between music and other modes, or the screen suddenly goes blank. Usually correct itself when engine is restarted. When I bring it in for service to the dealer, they are unable to replicate the problem. They say they run a software update, but can't tell if that's the fix or it was simply restarting the engine. Problem returns within a month or 2. Think it may be related to other electrical problems -- "door ajar" alert sometimes sounds even though the door is completely closed, "stabilitrack" warning light comes on repeatedly."
